I fell in love with Cobalt Jazz (after overcoming my dislike of the name). This is a rich, regal almost electric blue ink and reminds me of Lapis and King Tutankamun's golden sarcophagus. It has the most amazing red sheen that compliments the gold perfectly. It has been a joy to use this ink. This is one I would happily buy gallons of...! I have struggled to capture the true blue of this ink with little luck.I may try and upload scans later if I can.

Most promising of the new shimmer inks I've seen so far - I think I might have to place an(other) order...

It is beyond amazing for me, glad you liked it.

+1 ... shimmering inks are not my thing.

Horses for courses I guess.

Wow. Weirdly, just scrolling down the page on my laptop actually accentuated the sheen....

Think this one might be on the short list -- unless it turns out to be a shimmer version of Sargasso Sea (with which I had HORRIBLE clogging and dry up problems... :().

Thanks for the review... maybe....

This one is a definite. If you still have it loaded up, I'd love to do a CRV. I just mixed up a shimmery blue.

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

Most welcome. It's not Sargasso at all, no way near as purple leaning. I love it, think dark lapis blue with seams of gold.

      My notes and advice on fountain pen cleaning

      By inkstainedruth · Posted

      @asota -- Yeah, I think I have a few rolls in my fridge that are probably 20-30 years old at this point (don't remember now if they are B&W or color film) and don't even really know where to get the film processed, once the drive through kiosks went away....  I just did a quick Google search and (in theory) there was a place the next town over from me -- but got a 404 error message when I tried to click on the link....  Ruth Morrisson aka inkstainedruth

      There is still chemistry for processing regular chrome (positive) films like Kodak Ektachrome and Fuji Velvia, but Kodachrome was a completely different and multistep beast.

      Ah, but how to get it processed - that is the question. I believe that the last machine able to run K-14 (Kodachrome processing) ceased to operate some 15 or so years ago. Perhaps the film will be worth something as a curiosity in my estate sale when I die. 😺

      Take a lot of photos!   If the film has deteriorated or 'gone off' in any way, you can use that as a 'feature' to take 'arty' pictures - whether of landmarks, or people, or whatever.
