Excellent job. The humor is my favorite part. Always. Rhorer and Klingner - Solferino is perfectly placed between purple and magenta. Amazing De Atramentis has so many great colors, Alexander Hamilton being one of them. I also love Petrol, a deeper mid tone green w a little blue in it. Diamine, gotta give it to Monboddos Hat, deep reddish purple. So yummy. Bilberry is also a favorite of mine, deep purple/blue w some nice sheen. Iroshizuku, Jurojin is my favorite and it was LE.. anyway, I love asa gao, medium blue.. bullseye. Robert Oster, Fire and Ice.. medium deep teal w a red sheen. Pilot, Blue Black, really it’s more blue, but so simple and beautiful, well behaved and inexpensive. Love. Private Reserve, Ebony Green.. deep, green, lush.. stunning. Fun vid! Thank you.

Really good selection but I have none of these color versions, which is not surprising as you mentioned there are hundreds of not thousands of inks available. My #1 criteria is how fast does it dry. Being left handed makes this a priority as I tend to smear my inks. So, if you want you could start a list of inks for left handed writers. Here are some of my choices. Black - Aurora Black. Maybe not the most vibrant ink but it is dark and dries quickly. Blue - Private Reserve American Blue or Diamine Regency Blue. For dryness the American Blue is tops. But for deep rich color, the Regency Blue is, well, regal and dries pretty quickly. Red - Diamine Oxblood. Hands down a deep color and surprisingly fast drying. Brown - Private Reserve Chocolat is the winner. It is dark and OMG, fast drying. Green - Conklin Kelly Green is still being examined. It dries quickly, depending on the paper being used.

Some thoughts: 1. Don't write with true yellow inks, they are unreadable; use one with a touch of orange, as recommended here. But when drawing, a true yellow is just the ticket. My choice is Sailor Storia Spotlight. 2. Noodler's Baystate Blue is the top blue. 3. My experience using Noodler's Southwest Sunset is much less exciting then many online commenters'. However it is still very useful and currently my go-to orange. Next bottle will be Noodler's Habanero. Throatier. 4. All blacks are just fine. Differences detected via side-by-side comparison disappear in the real world. 5. I don't understand brown, purple, or green. But I do like to use all these colors in near-black tones, like Platinum Classic Sepia Black, Sailor Ink Studio 453, and Noodler's Zhivago. I need to explore the lighter and brighter tones more. 6. This video is a perfect demonstration that the way an ink looks swatched is NOT the same it looks coming out of a pen. This is even more true with fountain pens, rather than the glass pen used here. Swatches are useless, deceptive, beautiful, and fun. 7. Some colors don't show up accurately on one's home monitor. Opinionated talking and verbal comparisons are much more useful. 8. Thanks for another quality video.

If you consider the split primary color wheel is made up of warm and cool versions of the three primary colors, it is possible by adding in just a few other pigments, a person can mix just about any color. But, the convenience of having premixed paint is nothing to scoff. When I first started with watercolors I purchased a set of 15 ml tubes of Daniel Smith's watercolors. The sect came with 7 tubes of paint and I spent a lot of time mixing colors. I have heard that DeAtramentis inks are manufactured so that they can mixed and mingled to form different colors. Are there other brands of ink that can do the same thing? Color is such a fascinating topic.
@S.L._2 жыл бұрын
The De Atramentis Document Series inks are designed to be able to be mixed with each other! If you do it, I recommend only mixing a little at a time, writing down the amount/ratios of each that you mixed, and buying De Atramentis Document White and their diultion liquid for mixing, along with a clear ink shot, empty vials, and pipettes.

This is one of the very best videos published by Goulet Pen! The beautiful thing about fountain pens is that there are many dimensions to the hobby, like the nib size, it being flexible or not, the paper quality, the inks, the latter having their own dimensions, the color, of course, but is it shading, sheening, shimmering (the three Ss!) and what about the saturation, and then again is it waterproof, etc. Here `top`ink means the most representative of each color, that is, the bluer blue, the redder red, etc, that is not necessarily sheeing, shading, shimmering. They are like reference inks, and that list is very compelling! I see from the many comments below that I am not the only one who will look to add any of these inks I don't already own to my collection! Many thanks!
