Suggestions For A Super-Soaker Juicy Saturated Red Ink...?

[Jackson]

For a Conway Stewart I-B nib, I need a soaking wet, saturated blood-red ink. My Red Dragon doesn't quite cut it, neither does JH Rouge Hematite (once it dries). Wondering how plain old Noodler's Red behaves...?

All suggestions welcome--please and thank you.

I like Noodler's Nikita for a very wet red. I can't seem to find my writing sample with it - but it's a true red and even in a Lamy Safari Fine nib, it had amazing flow.

 

Here's a link to it on Goulet Pens (no affiliation, blahblahblah)

I find both Tienanmen and Antietam (Noodler's) to fit this description.

Thanks, Greg--the former is closer in color than the latter fie what I have in mind...

I second the antietam recommendation if you want the ink to look like blood

Can anyone comment on the wetness of Diamine Matador...?

Nikita is a favorite red and quite wet. Diamine Poppy Red is a wet red.

Nikita seems to be rising to the top--any 'beware' warnings about using this Noodler's ink in a Conway Stewart (c/c filler) pen...?

Noodlers Widowmaker is a wet, dark, intense red. Very good flow.

 

Classic Sheaffer Red is pretty wet, well behaved, and a vibrant poppy red. Very nice.

Decided on Matador plus Nikita...and may now add Widowmaker---thanks!
