86 Bluish (To Me) Inks

Recommended Posts

I'm not sure if it makes a difference, but most of these were from samples, courtesy of Goulet Pens and Paperskater. The Diamines are from bottles, courtesy of Stylos.se

 

It's a bit messy because I made this for personal use, but figured I should still share it.

 

Forgot to add:

The writing was done using the same glass dip pen purchased from Paper-Ya on Granville Island. The paper I used was from Rhodia No. 18 pads.

 

More scans

Thanks for the scans! This will be very helpful for when I start looking for inks again. I'm looking forward to the other colors.

Wow....... 86?

You can write a letter with a different blue for each sentence! How cool is that?

The photo's on this thread seem to have disappeared. If you see this, lovementos, could you please fix the broken links/images? This was a really great thread.

Yes, please --- I was really curious to see this, but there are no images.

 

Thank you!

Whoops! I reorganized my Photobucket a few days ago, and didn't think that this would be affected.

I can't seem to edit it, but here they are again:

Thank you, thank you, thank you. I love these kinds of comparisons.

Fountain pens are my preferred COLOR DELIVERY SYSTEM (in part because crayons melt in Las Vegas).

Create a Ghostly Avatar and I'll send you a letter. Check out some Ink comparisons: The Great PPS Comparison 

Don't know where to start?  Look at the Inky Topics O'day.  Then, see inks sorted by color: Blue Purple Brown Red Green Dark Green Orange Black Pinks Yellows Blue-Blacks Grey/Gray UVInks Turquoise/Teal MURKY

      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

    • A Smug Dill
      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
