Ink Review: Noodler's Ink, Hellfire.

Grade: 76.25%.

Paper: Norcom Composition.

 

I bought Noodler's Hellfire because I usually stick to black and white media when drawing/writing, and I thought I needed to mix things up a bit. First things first, despite its name, Hellfire is a pink colored ink. It doesn't lean toward red, orange, or even yellow. It is a bright transparent pink color that's meant to be used as a highlighter ink.

 

Not many things make me miss taking notes in college, but as someone who color coded everything, it does make me wish I had Hellfire back then to break up the doldrums of Business Ethics. The first thing that pops into my mind when I look at Hellfire is cotton candy or watermelon. I don't really consider this an ink that I would use to write with every day. Not because of embarrassment, although I did get some looks at work, but because it's a little too hard for me to read on its own. Which, honestly, is not its main function.

 

Like I said, Hellfire is a highlighter ink that does its job well. It pops off the page under normal lighting and will even fluoresce under a black light. Don't expect Blue Ghost levels of fluorescence. Think more of reflective safety vest at night. It drys very quickly and won't bleed through cheap paper. It's not a water fast ink, but you can see that it will put up a fight and resist being washed away. It will feather easily, but let's be honest, this ink should go in a felt tip pen and not in a flexible dip pen.

 

Overall, I love this ink. And if you love choosing your own ink colors and feel like trying out a refillable highlighter pen, then you should definitely check out Noodler's Hellfire.

I love this pink but it reminds me of a favourite - Diamine Hope Pink which I write with (what else?!) and also use as a highlighter. Thank you for a fabulous review!

I don't know why, but Noodler's Hellfire makes my eyes hurt.

I finally got around to taking a picture of Hellfire in a Platinum Preppy. It took about a week of occasional office use for the feed to work out all the yellow ink when I refilled the cartridge.

And here's the reverse so you can see the show through/bleed through.

Haven't tried this one. I have a few of the highlighter inks: Lightning Blue, Georgia Peach, and a big bottle of Dragon Catfish Pink (which I like, but I actually prefer Georgia Peach better colorwise because it's just a little different). And I had a sample of Dragon Catfish Green, but it seems to be out of stock a lot of places these days (that one actually went into the Preppy highlighter pen that cam with the DCP; the others are all in some cheapie Japanese brush pens that came with bottles of Kung Te Cheng -- which work great as highlighter pens, BTW...).

If I make it up to the Commonwealth Pen show, I may stop by the Noodler's table and ask if Nathan would consider doing a purple HL ink.... :rolleyes:

Thanks for the review.

Nice. What pen have you decided to pair it with?

A purlple HL ink would be amazing. I actually use Dragon's Napalm as my 'go to' HL ink. I find that the feed and felt tip on the Preppy HL does an amazing job taming it. So you might be able to get away with choosing a regular purple and just using it as a HL.

Thank you very much. i can't wait to try Noodler's Lightning Blue HL ink. I also think it would be cool to see if you can write with it.

Subjectively speaking, I'd give this ink a -1 (minus one) for color but an 11 (eleven) for your review.
