Noodler's Navajo Turquoise

[jakob]

Sooo...not altogether hard cider resistant. ;-)

 

I like the box worm, too. What is that you use to form your signature?

Yeah, it would appear that way—unfortunately. ＾▽＾

 

I use a name stamp I purchased in Insa-dong from 까망글씨 (kkangmang). It cost ₩30,000 or roughly $27.

 

This one has roughly the same design.

 

I use it with a Chinese stamp ink that I also bought in Insa-dong, from another shop.

Love the stamp. Do you know what the material it's made out of is?

Thank you for the kind words, Kathleen! It's very encouraging to hear things like that. I'm glad you liked the review.

 

This is one of my favorite inks, too. ^^

I don't remember what my stamp in particular is made of, but I know they're generally made from semi-precious stones, like balin.

OOOOO - not only did I read up on panagrams and katakanas, I discovered box worms (which will now join my doodle list). Even better, the katakanas website used my favorite word .... onomatopoeia. I'm thinking inky thoughts because of you. Thank you!

You're welcome, Amber! In more recent reviews I've also been including hiragana samples. I'm glad I can inspire some inky thinking! ^^

now I know what a pangram is.

 

So do I. Thank you!

And with an extra-fine nib too. That's impressive shading!

I'm glad I could help bring this knowledge to the community!

Well, it should be taken into consideration that the extra-fine nib of the Lamy 2000 is not very fine, it's more like the medium nib on my TWSBI Diamond 580 and the fine nib of a Lamy Safari. That said, this ink is a very impressive shader. Up there with Noodler's Apache Sunset.

This is my dream ink. It is so, so gorgeous. And I love your cubes.

What a great show-casing of this ink! Thanks for the great review of such a pretty ink. Loved the box worms, too. Awesome idea!
