Seitz-Kreuznach Arctic Blue

[Cyber6]

There is a NEW Ink Player out there. Seitz-Kreuznach is offering good value for their ink. In summary:

 

• Most of them are medium-wet
• Decent water resistance
• Colors are vibrant.. except Flamingo Pink
• Warning: with a broad wet pen, you WILL get show through and some bleed through (some are worst than others)

 

 

 

Water Test (20 seconds under running water)

Not my color but I'm glad and thrilled to see the review prepared by you

 

I wonder who makes their ink though. Seitz-Kreuznach's been a seller for quite a while and undoubtedly has some contacts here and there.

Nice color. What other colors have they got?

Where are they from? (Brand sounds german)

I'm a far happier person if I have no choices. ;-)

I'm starting to have trouble differentiating the slight differences in color.

Isn't there a J Herbin color similar to this?

Do you mind doing a quite comparison with Kon-Peki, and Waterman Inspired Blue for me, Cyber6? I like this color, but I don't want any obvious color repeats.

LOL... there are a LOT of similar colors to this. In fact, there are very little "unique" colors out there.

 

Now, if you are looking for behavior, then yes.. you might have a hard time finding similar color with very similar behavior.

 

These ones are somewhat wet, easy to clean and with some water resistance. Not bad for the price.

Some very pretty inks, from a brand I wasn't familiar with, and with decent availability - Thanks!

In your new sample bag, you have sample of SKAB (this ink) and a sample of Kon Peki.

 

This ink is MUCH greener than KP.

So, here is a picture the droplets in the background are what you should look at. KP is Kon Peki and AB is Arctic Blue.
