yes! i've anxiously been awaiting an Immoteus review of Momiji!! If I get an Iroshizuku ink, this will be the one. Any ideas of it comparing to CdA Sunset? the pink of the smearing is incredible. Makes me think of the Dragon's Napalm pinkness.

Many thanks for the great review!

 

Momiji is an excellent ink showing both bright red as well as bright magenta tones.

 

To me the scans look very accurate showing both the red and magenta hues.

 

Especially when using pens with wet ink flow the magenta becomes less apparent.

 

Cheers

Thanks for waiting! Unfortunately, I do not have CdA sunset; perhaps someone who is in possession of both colours is willing to post a colour comparison?

Thank you all, I'm glad you like the colour. I had to adjust the colour balance in PS to get an accurate scan.

I absolutely love this color, but I just don't use enough red ink to justify buying a full bottle, sadly. Pity they don't sell smaller bottles, ne?

Beautiful ink!!!! I love red ink. I use it all the time -- even to write letters! Very stunning. I can see this is a must have!

      I have the Sailor Naginata and some fancy blade nibs coming after 2022 by a number of new workshop from China.  With all my respect, IMHO, they are all (bleep) in doing chinese characters.  Go use a bush, or at least a bush pen.

      It is the reason why I'm so keen on the idea of a personal library — of pens, nibs, inks, paper products, etc. — and spent so much money, as well as time and effort, to “build” it for myself (because I can't simply remember everything, especially as I'm getting older fast) and my wife, so that we can “know”; and, instead of just disposing of what displeased us, or even just not good enough to be “given the time of day” against competition from >500 other pens and >500 other inks for our at

      Agreed.  And I think it’s good to be aware of this early on and think about at the point of buying rather than rationalizing a purchase..

      Alas, one cannot know “good” without some idea of “bad” against which to contrast; and, as one of my former bosses (back when I was in my twenties) used to say, “on the scale of good to bad…”, it's a spectrum, not a dichotomy. Whereas subjectively acceptable (or tolerable) and unacceptable may well be a dichotomy to someone, and finding whether the threshold or cusp between them lies takes experiencing many degrees of less-than-ideal, especially if the decision is somehow influenced by factors o

      I got my first real fountain pen on my 60th birthday and many hundreds of pens later I’ve often thought of what I should’ve known in the beginning. I have many pens, the majority of which have some objectionable feature. If they are too delicate, or can’t be posted, or they are too precious to face losing , still they are users, but only in very limited environments..  I have a big disliking for pens that have the cap jump into the air and fly off. I object to Pens that dry out, or leave blobs o
