Inks With A "sheen"

[Cyber6]

 

 

Oh. My. Goodness. Very handsome sheen. From the name, the "color" of the ink is a deep blue?

 

 

Check my thread on it... https://www.fountainpennetwork.com/forum/topic/307974-robert-oster-signature-inks-picture-heavy/

 

Deep Sea has tealish quality... (some green in it).. very similar to Pelikan Aquamarine.

Reminds me of a slightly darker and orange-r (??) Sailor Honey/Hachimitsu. Great sheen on that coral!

Oh, there you go--showing off another orange ink that I positively NEED to have! Z will be so pleased.... Wonderful thing about Z is, though, that he'll get it for me, no matter HOW many beautiful orange inks I already have .

 

EDIT: Dagnabbit! Looks like Goulet Pens doesn't carry Lamy Coral ! I guess I'll need to go looking for it elsewhere.... Goulet Guys--Why?!?

Yes, it looks quite orange in the picture. This is a very interesting color - when the light hits it one way it looks orange, when it hits it at a different angle it's pink. You can see bits of the pink here and there in the photo (see the 's' on 'feeds'). It's vivid and intense, and definitely a fun color. I'm glad I bought it.

I believe the Lamy Coral was a LE run to match the Coral Safari. I haven't been able to find it online anywhere. You might have some luck on that one auction site perhaps? There's a bottle on Amazon but it's above $50 bucks. I hope you're able to find a bottle of it somewhere!

Oh well, that's what husbands are for

I like the cut of your jib! Such a wise fellow!

PenStore in Sweden seem to still have stocks at €8 per bottle (exc VAT). I've ordered from them before & they were excellent. International shipping was very reasonable (to the UK). Expect to pay about €10 on 2 bottles (based on my experience)

Robert Oster Signature Ink - Deep Sea..

 

 

I'm not crazy about sheen, but boy these pictures make me want to buy all the inks with sheen!

 

Unexpectedly two inks where I noticed sheen are Quink Blue and Pilot Blue!! Also Sailor Jentle Blue, but I am pretty sure everyone notices sheen in Jentle blue. Quink and Pilot were surprises though.

[Fabienne]

Pilot? Boring old Pilot Blue? Good grief! Must try that.

[Olya]

I don't promise anything! Maybe it helps when some of the water content evaporates. But I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw some sheen (nothing strong though like Sailor eg). Good luck!

 

Edit to add: I went back and definitely noticed sheen in even more pages I wrote with Pilot blue, subtle but there. It was with a Pelikan m205 and a juicy M nib.

Did an auto tone adjustment in PS, so that might have affected the color, but that sheen is so beautiful

Thanks! That worked :-). I should now have a bottle on the way. Dog knows how long it will take to get here from Sweden, though. We'll see!

vorpal (post #618 above) has found a seller with stocks of Coral in the US. But hopefully your bottle won't take too long to arrive from Sweden.
