Swatched a new ink sample today and realized I hadn't posted the one I did last week so you get two photos.
Today's ink: Colorverse Gyeongnyealbi-yeoldo - pretty light green-grey. I love this color and it was great on the rhodia and clairfontaine papers pictured. Not so great on the coated iroful paper with the dip pen: it pooled and took a long time to dry. I probably won't bother putting it into a pen until I switch notebooks, but I'm excited to use it probably later in the year.
Last week's ink: Octopus Sheening Mermaid. Tealish blue with pink when. This is kind of halfway between the Diamine Vibe and Cosmic Glow from inkvent, but it's less sheeny. Worked well on all fountain pen friendly papers I tried. My intention is that when I finish the cartridge in my blue koi Preppy that this will become a ludicrous todo list and calendar ink to encourage me to write things down just for the joy of fancy ink. This trick works pretty well for me!
