I have one to add today - this is Troublemaker Mango. No interesting separations, but very zingy on a grey day!

 

Very intense colors! Those Troublemaker inks are much sought after here in the US.

And today, since I was inking up a pen anyway, I played with Sailor Manyo Haha.

That is one gorgeous ink @mizgeorge! There's a lot of detail in the buildings on the shore too. I like this one very much. 👍

That is wonderful!  👍🏻

My latest ebook.   And not just for Halloween!
 

My other pen is a Montblanc.

These latest three were inks I was playing with elsewhere. None are especially interesting in terms of chroma, but all did pretty things with water. So a couple of back to the beginning treescapes, and one on the water as it's boat racing season at home in the Caribbean and I'm homesick - only made worse by seeing so many friends whilst watching the cricket on TV for the past few days!

Sailor Ink Studio 260 (a little more springlike, perhaps?) large.studio-260-wash.jpg.7153ffb1e5dd7abda38d0ee25179afa9.jpg

and Diamine Marine

Splendid @mizgeorge! You're right, those inks played well with the water. I love it when that happens. The Herbin Vert Empire has some nice shades of color. :)

WOW!  That last one, in honor of the Shackleton expedition, is FABULOUS!  Also like the one using Colorverse Proxima B.

Thanks for posting these!

I love the grave thematic of this batch. The onyx and the ominous clouds until we reach the fabulous Shackleton... 

truly inspiring :thumbup:

WOW @axialix, the associated emotions of the implied sunbeam (second image of Parker Quink) are great!

👍

One life!

This one is a real back to the beginning treescape (I think these are still some of my favourites to do). Ink is Wearingeul the Mind, which doesn't do anything very clever, but is a lovely colour.
