Iroshizuku Tsuki-yo

[seanruss]

This ink appears a different color in every review, nice though. Love the handwriting!

I ordered samples of most of the Iroshizuku line, and this was the one I liked most. This came as a huge surprise to be as I usually go with really bright and unusual colours. I was sure it was going to be Yama-Budo, Yu-Yaku and Ku-Jaku for me, but it turns out I prefer PR Plum, Apache Sunset, and PR Blue Suede. I usually think blue-blacks are a bit boring, but Tsuki-Yo is anything but. It's well saturated, but still shows excellent shading. It's got the tiniest bit of green, which is enough to make it a little quirky, but not enough to make it teal. Nice and smooth too.

 

I like the comparisons in your review - they're very accurate. After seeing your penmanship I'm reminded about that italic nib that I was thinking of getting...

ink is color good too

Wow! Pilot should pay you for this review.

 

I was in dilemma to get Ku-Jaku; I like it but I want a darker hue. This one is perfect Thanks much for an excellent review.

This is one of my favorite inks, but I'm a little irritated that it doesn't seem to have the same effect upon my handwriting as it seems to have had upon the reviewer...

If only handwriting is included with the ink!~

I have three "blue" Iroshi inks Kon-peki, Ku-jaku and Tsuki-yo. They are all interesting in their own way but the one I use the most is Tsuki-yo. It is a beautiful inks that appears different with each change of pen / nib.

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

 

Excellent review, thank you

I have this ink too. I must have got a bad bottle. My handwriting looks bad still. :ltcapd:

Incredible handwriting!

 

Noodler's Bad Blue Heron looks relatively similar to this. The only Iroshizuku I've tried is Kon-peki, and it amazes me on so many levels. Wet, juicy flow yet quick drying. Good shading with a red sheen. Iroshizuku inks are expensive, but they justify their cost with an amazing assortment of colors and fantastic behavior. Add Tsuki-yo to the list of inks I'm looking forward to trying.

[ChuckR9]

The shading makes this a must have ink for me!

[edorsky]

Thank you for that great review. I ordered a bottle today. Was looking for a new ink for a new pen, and this should fit it perfectly!

Ordered a bottle - waiting for the mailman to deliver

[wastelanded]

First case of major ink-lust. I am seeing how long I can resist buying a bottle. Excellent review, thank you!

Enjoy!

 

I bought the ink, I wrote with it; my bottle is clearly defective, since the letters that come out are not like the example.

 

But I keep trying. Thanks for the inspiration!

Yes, if only! But I can't wait to see my chicken scratch in that shade.

I wish I could do a 'quick' sketch so well. Is that Tsuki-yo drawn with Tsuki-yo?

 

This ink is amazing. If I could only have one ink it would be this one.

I agree, totally amazing, from pen to pen, nib to nib it varies in coleration and shading, and they are all GOOD!

Wow Crewel,

 

That is fantastic, forget the Ink, Your Script/Handwriting is Gorgeous, you could write with Pickle Juice & it would look just as Lovely, Bravo for the great review [ink looks good too ] But your pen to paper is what does the trick :clap1:

 

Cheers,

LF

Couldn't agree any more.
