The Super Duper Co-Razy Parker Penman Sapphire - Blue - Comparisons Psp

I think you are very close.

 

The example of actual pps you've done several posts back just has a slightly more mysterious "brightness" somehow.

 

Unfortunately it's not like a water color where a person could add white.

 

What you done, It's very good work.

Amber, it's so close you could sell it. I'd buy a 55 gallon drum of it.

Amber, does the latest mix have less LCR than NNT? It does look pretty close. I got my sheet yesterday along with the bottle of FPN ink I ordered. Thank you! I'm off tomorrow morning to the DC show and will do my comparisons when I get back.

Did you mail it just recently? I haven't received anything. I'll have to come up with some blues that haven't already been tried.

 

I think I put it in with an FPN order.

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

I'm glad you got it!

 

The way I mixed this was a little hit and miss. I had an M200 about 1/2 full with Navajo Turquoise. I added what looked like an equal amount of LCR. If you want it a little bluer (less purple) add less LCR.

I received my letter from Amberlea today, and here's my contribution:

 

post-124265-0-61788600-1439405883_thumb.jpg

 

Neither of the inks are a good match, but it was fun though. :) Tried to adjust the scan to match my eyes, but if Amber can do it better, please go ahead.

 

Returned the letter with a few extras, hope she likes them. :blush:

Thank you. Those are both seriously dark colors! If your mix of them is close to the original it must have been significantly darker than Parker Quink blue, but in my comparison I thought PQB was dark enough (but too purple?) Certainly makes me rethink some mix ideas...

I only have one question with Amber's Faux Penman Sapphire Mix (hereinafter called AFPSM) - the original PPS behaves well on poorer quality papers, bleeding through less than my FPS#9. How does AFPSM compare with PPS on poorer quality paper?

 

Oh, and is there any sheeny?

 

Apart from that, the colour appears a dead ringer.

I plan to pick up a bottle of NNT in DC (I already have LCR) and will try some different proportions when I get back. Most of the other inks that I could try have already been submitted, but there may be one or two that haven't been seen.

Well, I tried it on TR paper, no sheen. Great shading, no sheen.

Those swatches are darker than the ink is in person. I couldn't link the Goulet swatches so I used the ones from Anderson. I'll see if I have a recent sample.

Oh, the formal name is NIS as in Noodler's Inkyman Sapphire.

It should be mentioned that Noodler's La Couleur Royale sheens very nicely.
