Yeah, the fading thing is HUGE for me here in Nevada. It doesn't take much exposure here in the sunbelt.

Fountain pens are my preferred COLOR DELIVERY SYSTEM (in part because crayons melt in Las Vegas).

Because this one faded NOT AT ALL, I've left the exposed versions turned.

Sanford Prismcolor markers really did well.

I have now scanned every sample except #s 25 and 48 which I took apart like puzzles.

 

I'll have to resize the small images and then upload both to the website.

 

Next, the images will need to be linked from the website to here.

 

The other members of the team have been inputing the names of the inks into a database along with the paper types and a determination as to the result.

 

We have all been discussing the overall interest in the project. I'll add a new post discussing the ideas.

So, just incase you were interested ....

 

Orange is just prone to fading - even in crayon.

Since I have a short attention span and a desire to be creative, I've taken my scrapbooking tools and used them in this experiment. Then, I got bored and put the parts back together all wampus-catty.

 

Nevertheless, the prism markers did not fade.

While the Prism Markers did not fade, ballpoints did not last. Any of the special smooth or easy gliding inks were faster to fade than ordinary ball points.

I've been anxious to get these up - Colrehogan had inks and papers that were not in my collection. The samples were on the white board that received "less" direct sun, but was hit by water during the experiment.

 

Prior to this posting, part of the sample had been floating back and forth between Nevada and Texas, so you can assume that it was exposed to some heat.

See above message.

 

Tanzanite was one of my favorite colors, but it just does not hold up to sun or water and it is finicky.

See above post about #120.

This one is mostly blacks. Check out the differences. Black has been the most fade resistant color over all.

The Doane paper held up fairly well. As stated above, the smooth ball point inks did not.

This sample is just the ball point inks. The paper is an ivory and shows some fading. The same inks were used on five or six different papers to show a comparison.

Note that while Sakura Gelly Roll inks generally held up great, the "Shadow" line faded to just gold.

I found the difference between how the inks faded on ivory paper compared to white paper to be interesting.

I found the original scans for the next few samples. Also, they were impoperly numbered.

Check out Montblanc Hitchcock and Violet. They are beautiful to "paint" with, but fade.
