Every Ink I Own

[lady flash]

So I had some free time:

Any line with a tiny BT on the far left means that it bleed through on the back. Paper is Clairefountaine 90g spiral notebook.

 

Blacks and Grays

Pinks and Purples

You would think from looking at these that I like Blue the most, it's actually because blue usually doesn't get used when I have all these other options to choose from. All but 6 of these are from samples (mostly Goulet ink drops)

Impressive and informative! Thanks for all the effort!

This is useful. Thanks for sharing.

[SamCapote]

Great comparisons! Thanks for sharing.

 

Looks like you were eating something over the Noodler's Purple!

Great work. Many thanks

A1 for effort there! Sure this will be useful to most people on here! I'm actually grateful that I'm colour blind as it means I can't really get drawn into an ink-collecting passion! :embarrassed_smile:

I'm glad you all enjoy them.

It's something on my scanner. I noticed it on more than one page but by the time I noticed it every page had been scanned and some had been color corrected. It adds character, right? :embarrassed_smile:

Very nice to see them all side by side like that. I know it was a lot of work, but it's quite helpful to see direct comparisons.

 

I spend a lot of time playing with the Goulet Swab Shop. Last night I spent a lot of time comparing oranges with oranges (and not apples! heh).

Thanks for taking the time to do this.

Makes me realise I don't have many inks......

[pearlbeer]

Interesting and informative, thanks.

[amberleadavis]

Thank you! I don't suppose we can convince you to put them in the window and test how they fade???

[JeanManuel]

Thank you so much !!! We can really see well the colors. I found that I already own my favourite colors

[dannyboy]

Very helpful comparisons--thanks for your efforts and time in arranging these samples! Especially liked the green and the brown sections.

[torstar]

Thank you, great project.

 

Look at how BSB stands out...

I am thinking about it, I just got this months inkdrop in, I need to add those and rescan and then maybe. How long does one usually leave them in sunlight?

I've added a few ink drops and some other samples I bought to the originals:

Thank you so much. Very useful scans. Now it's easier to decide what new inks I need...

Uh wait a minute there fellow color-challenged. I am getting into quite an ink "thing" and I am red-green. Blues and Yellows are no problem for me of course. But then there are very few yellow inks!
