Week #37 / 10 Sep: Faster (Drying), Higher (Sheen), Stronger (Shading) - 2017 Weekly Ink Project

[lgsoltek]

This week, pick an ink to interpret the theme "colours of Olympics". Thanks evyxmsj for the idea!

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.

Love these colours! (Maybe except the black. No black ink can win my heart.)

Diamine Golden Sands for the gold!

[visvamitra]

Pretty cooll

[Inkvisible]

Thank you!

[lgsoltek]

Well De Atramentis gives us Gold, Silver and Bronze all three!

[Inkvisible]

I hear good things about DeAtramentis inks, but I do not have a single one!

[evyxmsj]

I went for a sheeny one this week: has to be gold of course!

 

I think this one out-sheens my entry last week, but then it is the Olympics.

Woo hoo!

Thanks for the inspiration visvamitra

 

A good opportunity to tick off a few inks in one go by using the inside of an old Noodler's bottle lid and making quite a bit of mess on the desk . . .

NB Very surprised by how pleasant Quink Red is.

Rethinking giving that bottle of Bilberry to one of my children.

And here I was admiring your ability to draw such perfect circles.

I got sucked in to Even Better Orange IG ink.

OH, and even better water resistance from inks that you wouldn't think would be water resistant. I had to do washes when the ink was still wet because once it dried, it would not wash.
