Robert Oster is new player in fountain pen ink market. He operates through ebay shop. The inks are sold in 50 ml PET bottles with a tightly secure twist cap. I don't know who makes the inks for the shop, but the colors look interesting and fresh. At the moment Robert Oster inks are available in colors

I'll review them in following weeks. Let's start with Emerald Green that's described as unique green [...] a beautiful representation of a multifaceted Emerald gem. Flows on glassy, dries on Emerald Green with gentle shading quality on product page. Well I can agree it flows really well. The ink is definitely wet and offers great flow. I haven't observed any misbehaviour (no feathering, no bleedthrough, no clogging or causing hard starts). It's not water resistant. Personally I dislike the color - in general I dislike such greens. If however you enjoy them and you expect ink to flow well and offer some nice shading, Emerald may be interesting choice for you.

Blame me for the Charlies. Also for Umbrellas for shading.

Excellent review! I do like these blue-greens, so this may be a possibility for me.

You are more than welcome to contribute.

We need terms for shading, feathering, spreading

How about "sallyrands" for feathering?

Thanks again, Vis and Cyber6.

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
