Every Ink In Goulet Pen's "blues (Best Sellers)" Sample Pack

[strongbif]

I performed a 2-factor factorial experiment using 8 blue FP inks and 6 different notebooks. I used the same Lamy Safari fine nib for each trial. Response variable was the sum of scores on a 1-to-5 scale across 4 categories: appearance, tactile experience, bleeding/ghosting, and feathering.

 

I learned about myself: 1) I prefer a "toothier" paper, i.e., Rhodia was too "slippery" for me in several cases, 2) I seem to like blues that are neither very dark nor very light, and 3) I'm generally not fond of super-saturated inks.

 

If you have similar preferences, you may find my results useful.

Of the papers you tried, which would you describe as "toothy"?

Can you post the larger photos?

What a good idea. Doing stats again right now. Ink and paper combos sure beats doing irrelevant stats on a non-existent year 8 math class.

 

What did you particularly like about the toothiness? How was it helpful?
