8 (More) Shades of Grey: Grey Fountain Pen Ink Swatches

[@roxannemaguire9844]

Thank you for swatching these lovely shades!!! The only grey that I have is Earl Grey, which I love, but now I see a few others that I would really enjoy!!! Dusk ✨ and Antique Aubergine, oh my!!! ✨

I haven't had a single dud from Dominant Industry, yet. I'm really so impressed with their inks - even the shimmers are hella consistent and easy to use, regardless of nib. And Antique Aubergine has already made it onto my all time favorites list. Such a gorgeous color! Thank you so much for watching!

thankyou for part 2!! I own Earl Grey, Ghost, Kiri-same & on my wish list are the rest of your list 😁

[@snarkywordsworth]

You'll have to let me know if you end up getting any of the other shades and how you like them! Thanks for tuning in! ❤

I loved all these greys. I think I’m putting Earl Grey on my list.

It really is a wonderful ink! Thanks so much for watching. ❤️

Two more excellent gray inks you may not have tried. (1) Noodler’s Clairvoyent Slate. This transparent, bulletproof ink is darker than Noodler’s Lexington Gray (I assume you have already tried Lexington Gray.) it behaves well and is entirely waterproof. JetPens has it. (2) HongDian Gray. The HongDian inks are free-flowing, intensely colored, and inexpensive on Amazon. This gray is fairly dark with some partial water resistance. I highly recommend both these gray inks. The Clairvoyent Slate is especially great for drawing followed by a watercolor wash (so is the lighter Lexington Gray) but it behaves well enough to be good as an everyday writing ink as well.

Thanks for the video Earl Grey has always been a fav of mine and now I’ve confirmed id like to dry the pilot :)

[@snarkywordsworth]

Let me know how you like the Kiri-same if you end up getting it! Thank you so much for watching.

@@snarkywordsworth I think ill pick up a sample as he big bottle seems a little pricy if I don’t like it lol :) I may have to do a currently inked video as i like how you did the swatch ;)

Love the Diamine Ghost! I just ordered a sample of Earl Grey and it’s so pretty. I want that BPC Antique Aubergine. I have the Blue grey form De Atrementis it’s nice. I want to try the Pilot Iroshizuku inks. I love all the greyt grey inks... I’m on a hunt for a good periwinkle ink now after getting several other colors I’ve been wanting in muted blues, pinky-browns, Ina-Ho dupes, I have muted purples I love Rohrer & Klingner Scabiosa and have it inked (for the last 3 years) in a Purple transparent TWSBI Eco... I love all the colors and love your color palette... Great video! Maybe you can do an updated pen collection video? I wanna see that new Franklin Christoph 😁🤍pen

Do you find the Blue Grey Document ink from DeAtramentis at all "slippery" like I was mentioning? It's not a bad feeling, but for me it was definitely a little unusual. I love the color, regardless. 😍 And if you're looking for a periwinkle, you might check out Dominant Industry's Periwinkle Twinkle. I had a little sample that I finished off pretty much immediately because I loved it so much. It's a slightly deeper periwinkle with pink shimmer. So lovely. And look out for this May's upcoming Currently Inked - the new Franklin-Christoph will definitely be in there. Thank you for watching!!!
