Seitz Kreuznach Indian Summer Orange

[lgsoltek]

I hate this colour. I dislike pale orange colours. This one is exactly one of such colours: pale, unsaturated, pastel. Sure, where the ink pools and shades it's a rather nice reddish colour, but most of the time it's a kind of colour that reminds me of a Band-Aid.

 

Splash

(photo, scan. The splashes beautify any ugly ink.)

Sample

(Quite some shading. I'm using a Sailor 1911 Naginata Togi which is not a dry pen at all. The paper is Maruman.)

(Cyber6 suggests using it on a creamy paper. This is Tomoe River ivory paper.)

Compare

(I'll take the last two happily. I dislike Orange indien too. Not that I have anything against Indian people. )

Hmmm. I believe I won't be buying this one.

Hmmm. I find it interesting.

 

Thank you.

What is the blue ink you are using to label the orange inks. That's my kind of blue!

Doesn't look like any Indian summer I've ever seen....

Reminds me of De Atramentis Salmon.

I love it. Beautiful! Of course I am color blind. Still, I love it.

 

Not sure what there is to hate about this color. But that's why there are 1,000,000 inks to choose from these days.
