So if I buy this ink, will my writing be as beautiful as that? :yikes:

 

Excellent review, thank you

Great review, and one of my favorite colors. Using it right now! I'm not sure I could write like that if I practiced forever!

 

And -- I Want That -- that is a gorgeous kitten pictured in your avatar! What a look!

Excellent Review. Stunning Penmanship. Legal Lapis is my staple professional ink, but I love this color. Maybe at a lower price point. :embarrassed_smile:

I love your handwriting, it is lovely and beautiful! Wonderful review, I like how you showed different writing styles, it really helps to give a better idea of what the ink is like or rather its potential and variety. One of these days I'll get a bottle.

 

Please do more ink reviews!

Ahhh! I saw that posting too! But I was too slow. It was such a great deal too. It's much harder to get there in time for ink sale postings. People seem to snatch them up right away. Next time, next time :)

I must say, that's a lovely shade. The Pilot inks are too rich for my blood, but I can see the difference here, compared to MB blue-black for instance. The MB ink was a staple of mine back in the 70s, and I loved the color then, but the difference between it and the Pilot is striking in your scans - the MB looks like muddy dishwater in comparison! Well, perhaps someday, these will get imported in vast quantities to the US and the price will go down...I can dream...

Wonderful penmanship. BUT, doing your own hyphenation to produce nearly justified prose is just showing off!

 

No, keep it up, great stuff.

Tsuki-yo, like all Iroshizuku inks is a fantastic, saturated and vivid hue.

 

I love it. It's a blue-black with a tinge of green, like an evening sky. But less green than the peacock ku-jaku.

 

Many thanks for a review of this fantastic ink. It's my 'go-to' nonblack work. Your writing sample puts mine to shame... :embarrassed_smile:

A great review with beautiful handwriting. I recently bought this ink and it has quickly become a favorite. This ink is very smooth.
