Hopefully more and more inkthusiasts know what the four letters - KWZI - mean. They mean good ink, saturated color.



You can check Konrad's site here.



Gummiberry has nice, catchy name (who didn't watch Gummi Bears?), nice color and good flow. It lacks waterproofness.

Was this on the group buy list? Now I know what I missed. Wow! wow! your reviews rock, and this one rocks doublehard.

This is what I should have ordered. I don't think I saw it but I should have and conjured it up. This means I will be joining the next group buy for KWZI... That is a great ink. Thanks for showing it. Now I gotta go hunting...

Congratulations on the first review for this ink, visvamitra! It's darker than I thought it would be but it looks fantastic nonetheless. I'm eagerly looking forward to playing with my bottle of it (I hope to make it my first ink review).

 

It actually looks more amethyst than Levenger's Amethyst and more like grape than Diamine's Grape, somehow! :D It's like the color of an edible amethyst! Also... pretty close to the colors in my avatar! All signs point to this being a very fortunate pick.

Very nice....

 

I am not a fan of purple inks.... But this one I love :wub:

 

The KWZi website is super but the most important thing is missing

 

 

The buying department :unsure:

Das leben ist wie ein Perpetuum Mobile mit ein Mangel..... Immer im Bewegung jedoch nicht unendlich. (life is like a troubled Perpetuum Mobile ever moving but not for ever)

Tricked throughout the centuries...

For centuries people had been tricked by kings & "religion-alism"

In the 20th century people got tricked by communism

Today people get tricked by (neo)capitalism :)

It's named after the juice the bears drank to get super bouncy in the old 90s cartoon show! I can still sing the intro by heart! This pleases me!

As others have already said this ink look beautiful and your review really makes it standout! What I wouldn't do for a swig of that Gummiberry juice and a vial of this GB ink! I'm actually wearing a GB juice colored tshirt today haha (but alas with a Magneto manga instead of the 80s cartoon bears :) )

Thanks for showing us the ink! This too is totally my kind of color.

 

Just a reminder, reviews of KWZI inks, powdered inks that are no longer made, Scribes inks (limited run) all belong here in Th-Inking Outside the Bottle.

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

I went out a bit on a limb in ordering this ink, and I'm glad I did. It's a really nice medium [grape?] violet color, and it has a rich saturation that I really admire. Here's a view:

First bottle is here, and yummy! no regrets. It even dries a little darker than it goes on, another plus. Liking it very much.
