I have the Muji cards in my possession. The paper is thin and not very large. You can likely swab and write the name of your ink but not too much else. In my experience the swabs bleed through as well so you cannot use both sides of the paper. The only other thing worth mentioning is that they aren't a true white but more of a very light grey color. Not dark by any means. The paper is also smooth, unlike the Nemosyne ones which I recall are more similar in texture to watercolor paper.

 

In a pinch I suppose they're okay. Not my favorites but I'm sure there are worse options. I actually just created a grid and swabbed my inks on Canson Watercolor Paper. Desperate times and all that.

 

I would be interested in hearing how you found the cards you ordered, Fabienne!

They aren't the worst but I wouldn't want anyone buying them to think they're similar! For the price, I suppose I shouldn't be complaining!

Here's a picture. The paper underneath is white watercolor paper. Also, you can see there was some feathering when writing.

They are really not that bad... In a pinch, and especially if you don't have options... they will do just fine.

They look disconcertingly similar here, more so than I think they really are! :unsure:

Oh, those are wonderful. Thank you.

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

Create a Ghostly Avatar and I'll send you a letter. Check out some Ink comparisons: The Great PPS Comparison 

Don't know where to start?  Look at the Inky Topics O'day.  Then, see inks sorted by color: Blue Purple Brown Red Green Dark Green Orange Black Pinks Yellows Blue-Blacks Grey/Gray UVInks Turquoise/Teal MURKY

Diamine SBRE Brown.

 

He got an ink named after him? Or is he named after the ink?

 

it's a beautiful one, nonetheless.

I don't know what color Silly Putty really is, but I put it in pink and brown.

Oh, and I should mention, that color above, that HalloweenHJB sent is CLEAN Silly Putty. After you use Silly Putty is a different color.
