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

So, you're suggesting all these inks?

The liberty of the press is indeed essential to the nature of a free state; but this consists in laying no previous restraints upon publications, and not in freedom from censure for criminal matter when published. Every freeman has an undoubted right to lay what sentiments he pleases before the public; to forbid this, is to destroy the freedom of the press; but if he publishes what is improper, mischievous or illegal, he must take the consequence of his own temerity. (4 Bl. Com. 151, 152.) Blackstone's Commentaries

The real reason for all the posts is to show the various colors that the other FPNers have recommended. The samples are from the current fade test and were supplied by members of our community.

I'm glad it helps. The "stash" has been decades in the inking. My advice would be to start with a color group (Blue / Green / Pink / Purple / Orange) and ask members what they like. Read some reviews. On a budget, my best purchases were the Noodler's eel inks. The colors are vey vibrant, the inks were good to my pens and years later, I still like them.

Iroshizuku fuchsia, persimmon, or grass green are definite fun colors, and easy to clean up in evey perm in which I've tried them.

Diamine Florida Blue. You can't be faulted for writing in blue ink, but this is one that's very vibrant and lively.

Sailor Jentle Inks are all lively and well behaved. This serie was designed in such way any two inks look very good paired together. They are all harmonized and have a sheen when lit at an steep angle.

Most of my personal notes are taken in Sailor Epinard (green) with annotations in Sailor Abricot (orange).

Seek that which is true, beautiful, and good.

Akkerman Shocking Blue is real nice. Comes in a cool bottle that is bigger than most. (either 100 or 150 mL I believe) I only have samples of it, but it and Voorhout Violet are inks that may be of interest.

I thought I was going to only use black and blue inks, but I've been looking into varying shades of purple. I guess I'll be ordering some samples first, though.

Uh... Yes. It's a color made by Organics Studio. I haven't reviewed it yet and as of the time of the ink stash photo, I hadn't added it.
