Like the colour but not the mono-tone. Went for KWZ Red.

Oh fine, be a tempter why don't you? :)  I would prefer shading, too, but I do really like the color and ink-performance.   Of course, there's zero chance of me even sampling a red ink at the moment - too many inks to use up...  Meanwhile, are we talking Red #1?  (I keep a list of things to sample, and thought I'd add this to it - for next year.)

 

PS: While checking the name for this, I spotted KWZ Raspberry and now I want to have a raspberry snowcone for breakfast.  These are the dangers of looking for ink first thing in the morning during a heat wave, I suppose.... :rolleyes:

Red Dragon is my current go-to ink for correcting student work. 

Do you draw happy dragons for praise and fire-breathing ones for errors?  'Cause I'm thinking that would make you the coolest teacher around. ;)

Wouldn't that call for Robert Oster Fire and Ice instead of Diamine Red Dragon?

I endeavour to be frank and truthful in what I write, show or otherwise present, when I relate my first-hand experiences that are not independently verifiable; and link to third-party content where I can, when I make a claim or refute a statement of fact in a thread. If there is something you can verify for yourself, I entreat you to do so, and judge for yourself what is right, correct, and valid. I may be wrong, and my position or say-so is no more authoritative and carries no more weight than anyone else's here.

Only if you wanted icy-fire-breathing dragons.  In blue-ish.  Nope, red for dragons.  :)

That would be a drawing by "Robert Froster".

I was actually thinking TSherbs as a white walker, since you said something about making him the coolest teacher around; thus the icy-fire-breathing dragon.

Me and "draw" don't mix....

Me either.  I wonder how you'd draw a stick-dragon...:unsure:

::whoosh:: - the sound of your good literal-interpretation-joke going right over my head - which is odd since this is exactly the sort of joke I'd make!  Very disappointed in myself. :D

Here's the line width measurement. The line is one of those used for dry time.  Magnification is 100x.  The grid is 100x100µm.  The scale is 330µm, with eleven divisions of 30µm each.  The line width for this ink is roughly 290µm.

This is an everyday red for me.  It doesn't hurt my eyeballs.  Not a big fan of bright reds.  As with browns and greens, I journal with red every few pages, either Red Dragon or Oxblood.  For Christmas and red-letter days on my calendar I use Diamine Poppy Red and sunglasses.

I love the smell of fountain pen ink in the morning.

:) Agreed - this is the kind of red you could use on a regular basis without eye strain.
