Thanks to Deirdre for the samples!

The brilliance of this ink just does not show through on these scans. You really need to be out in bright sunlight to see it at its best. But even indoors, on the right paper, it will do its thing. The operability of this ink is so-so.

As always, click on the pic to get to the picasaweb page, and use the magnifier button on the top right to see it at 100% (I recommend doing so, to really see the color)



isn't this a whole lot better than those form reviews? It's taken a long SPAN of time for me to get this finished, but it actually took very little real time to do it, and I feel that it really shows you the variability in the ink. The only thing missing is a multi-paper extravaganza... but don't worry, it's in the works!!!

Gotta have this one. Why are you tempting me roflmho.gif ? Very nice "real-life" review thumbup.gif

Great review! This is one of my very favorite inks. It really leaps off the page! It writes a bit dry in my pens, too, but I dilute it ~3:1 ink to water and it works well (plus, the bottle lasts longer! wink.gif).

I received a sample of this from Kookychick and will definitely be buying a bottle. I have a lot of vibrant pinks, but this one is the only opaque pink ink I've tried. I found it does tend to dry in my pens as well, but it's a small price to pay for Pepto Bismo ink.

An update: here's more fun with this amazing ink. I haven't used it much lately, and I find myself missing it... It really is fun to look at.
