Here's a scan of Noodler's Swishmix Nile Ebony and its water test. Once again, it's on my blog until the editing is sorted out. Sorry about that.

Ugh! That's some feathering on the paper! It also seemed not to fare too well in the "smear test" (this is a nice component of the review). Thanks for posting this.

Thanks Dave!


To be fair the quick drying ink component of Swishmix (Swisher's regular ink line) is not designed for cheap paper. Swisher Pens actually has a list of papers to use with it on their site. Needless to say, the junk bond paper I used for this review isn't on it.

Thanks for the compliment on the smear test. I just need to make sure I use the same conditions for every ink I review to make it useful. Perhaps testing at different time intervals? Suggestions would be most welcome!

Thanks,
Kate
