Week #9 / 26 Feb: Raining Dyes And Pigments - 2017 Weekly Ink Project

[lgsoltek]

For this week, we are picking the wettest ink in our collection!

 

As usual, don't forget to share with us your choice of ink, your writing, drawing, doodling or anything with the ink in this thread. You can take a photo, make a scan, or even better, write letters and CRV reviews (what is a CRV?) and mail them to the many ink pals here. You are welcome to check back on this thread even when we've gone past this week.

Click here to read more about this community project. Links to the two previous links can be found there too.

Nice yellow.

I am still not really wholly sure which of my inks are the wettest, I wrote a pretty rough shortlist of 5 and this was my top choice - Monteverde Brown Sugar, one of their newer colours. The box claims it has improved ink-flow quality and lubrication, and it seems to be so.

 

It was one of the wettest and just a really gorgeous colour. I've put it in a BB-nibbed Artpen for now, but will try it in an italic later in the week.

The Merlot seems wetter than all of the others below it. Red Cashmere the only one close.

This Brown Sugar looks quite nice.

The funny thing is I see very little difference between them on the paper, too... the scanner actually shows their differences much better!

After a few days of really paying attention, I'm thinking the Van Gogh Starry Night is the wettest of them all...

I had forgotten about Golden Wattle, but it's up there anyway, and I bet no-one else has this one...

(except Amber, who has at least one, and possibly two or more, of every ink) (ever).

I do like Merlot. Not quite red or purple. I feel I can get away with it at work.

I LOVE this ink. I flows well in all pens including the dryest, the color is one of my all time favorites ( a bluer fuscia) and though it is suuuuper wet, I still find the dry time decent (says the lady who walks around the office with a notebook containing blotting paper .

 

Honestly, I do not have anything bad to say about this ink other than it may feather on the cheeeapest papers I found but hey, most of the inks I like do and I try to steer clear from the office copier paper (at home I have Clairefontaine DCP ).
