Noodler's Dostoevsky

[Thornton]

Where can I purchase this color of ink?

 

Right now, I think only Swisher's has it in stock.

Of all of the inks I have purchased, the pen has most made the diff for this ink, which I want desperately to be a good ink, as a fan...

 

In the MB 149, terrible.

 

The WM Edson, amazing.

 

Other pens, somewhere in between.

Do you get shading with any pen you've tested this ink in, so far? Is it a fine nib vs. broad nib thing, or more individual than that?

It looks like a celadon green to me - am I seeing the correct color?

mine is a very pleasant shade of green, shades nicely with my Pelikan Tortoise 400 with Binder's Italifine nib. The green is darker and very suitable for most writing. Don't understand color variations, but to me there is no blue in this whatever

Thanks for the info on shading. That's good to know.

 

I love Noodler's bulletproof inks, but I also love shading, and most of them that I have tried don't.

Both are M nibs. One of those things I guess...

 

There is no unintentional shading with the Edson.

Just got four green ssamples from Goulet pens and , to my non-artist eyes, there's very little difference between this ink and Green Gator or Green Marine, both of which are also waterproof. Now I love the Dostoevsky but it is a bit balky with some nibs; the other two inks, though, write in anything. So maybe time to dump the Russian and go with a gator or a marine
