Well I LOVE glitter and shimmer (it's the girly-girl in me) - Diamine Shimmering Seas and Sparkling Shadows are two of my go-to everyday inks. Can't wait to get my hands on this new 1670!!

So excited about this one! I love browns and browns with some red, and I also love me some shimmer!

I have Stormy Grey that'll probably sit in my drawer until it expires. What a shame, since I'm scared to use it in any of my pens.

 

I LOVE Stormy Grey. And I didn't hesitate to put it my Pelikan M100 with a 1 mm nib.

To be honest my bottle doesn't give enough shimmer to really notice, partially why figured no point bothering and maybe later sufferings consequences. I did use it in Montblanc's Catherine the Great and remember having to spend more time cleaning the nib to get it to stop shining

I was sort of hoping it would be something I wouldn't want.... :wallbash:

 

LOL! Me, too! One more on the wish list for me, I guess :-).

Hi folks,

 

so we got few photos of the ink and let me tell you - it sheens like crazy :wub:

Ink colour is similar to Iroshizuku Tsukushi, warm red-brown. It has gold flecks and strong metallic green sheen :)

 

AMAZING!

 

Enjoy the pictures, there will be many more to come.

Too red for me, although I have a hard time making out the true color of the ink underneath that overdone sheen. Will pass.

I'm excited to see it in person.

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

Mine is on order now. Won't see it until July but that is just going to build up my anticipation. It will look lovely on cream colored papers.

I think it is a very nice color. Maybe a bit too thick and glittery though? I will see what reviews say. I can't buy anything for some time though. But I can put it on my wish list.
