Sailor Storia Lion Light Brown (Pigmented Nano-Particle Ink)

[lgsoltek]

Sailor has recently released a new line of ink, the STORiA inks, which are pigmented nano-particle inks like Sei-boku and Kiwa-guro.
I've review Fire Red, Night Blue, Dancer Pink, Clown Yellow Green and Magic Purple.

 

While all other Storia inks are pale and boring, Lion Light Brown is really a nice colour I enjoy. It's more like a yellow-orange ink.

Writing sample

With a Pilot Falcon SM.

Nice shading, water resistant.

 

 

Comparison

With my browns.

I think I should compare it with orange inks as well. I have made the swabs but haven't scanned them yet.

It looks really nice. However Sailor Brown looks stunning as usual. It's sad that this ink in no longer available.

I do love this kind of color... The splash looks amazing, and I love the shading in the writing sample... but is kind of light.

 

I do like the idea of the water resistance,.. I might have to splurge on this bottle.

 

Thanks for the wonderful review...

Oh this is really nice. Better than the purple IMO.

This one is very appealing. Thank you for the review.

Lgsoltek...excellent review. So many great Browns...so little time...and money.

Hm...I'm deep in the rainbow black hole of pen blogs, heeeeelp!*

 

I wonder how this pretty Sailor color compares to KWZ El Dorado. Anyone know?

 

 

 

 

 

*Of course, this is not a cry for being pulled out. I have questions!

I don't have the Lion with me to compare, but I'd say El Dorado is somewhat darker and more orange/red? I could be wrong though.

 

One thing for sure is that El Dorado is definitely wetter, smoother and much easier to clean than the Lion. I'm totally not happy with the performance of the Storia inks.
