My Colors 3- Greens, Pinks, Reds, Browns, Burgundies, Oranges

[mfyorulmaz]

I laid down my colors and here is what came out...I thought it may be useful for other people as well when shopping for different colors. I try to adjust color tones as best as I can on Photoshop. But since what shows up on your screen may be very different due to your color settings, try to calibrate your monitor/screen first...the empty lines on the pics will be filled with my lastly ordered inks when they arrive.

My favorite brands are Diamine & Pilot. Sometimes pilot inks are a little bit dry though. Favorite colors are marked with (F)...Due to upload limitations other colors will be posted on the other posts...

thats a record... it took me 2 days to find a blue-black ink in local shops :DD

[FayeV]

Thank you for taking the time to make all these. They are very helpful to me right now as I am looking to expand my ink colors and trying to decide what color ink samples to buy.

 

I wonder if there is any way on this forum to mark some of our favorite posts (like a "bookmark" of sorts) so we can easily find them again when we would like to refer to them in the future.

Nicely done! Added some things to the wishlist!

Very nice! Did you use a dip pen, or a very wet nib?

[mfyorulmaz]

not a wet one. I was trying to simulate what I get from a 1mm width italic nib. So, I was careful about eliminating excessive ink after dipping, so that the color does not become darker than it actually is. as far as I compare the results with what I get from my italic pens, they are pretty similar...
