Isn't that GORGEOUS!!!...

 

 

I must have been a SLUG in my previous life... I just ADORE those earthy murky colors....

 

 

Thanks so much for reviewing this gorgeous ink.

[lgsoltek]

I actually think it's more pretty than Cigar.

[Cyber6]

BTW... It does Sheen... A gorgeous copper sheen.

 

 

From Sinistral1..

 

[sakayume]

Absolutely gorgeous! (I like it better than Cigar in your photos too, as it looks to be more brown. )

 

Yet another Sailor ink I wish I'd been able to get my grubby hands on.

Maybe I should get a few backups if this, only have 2.

For what it's worth, I was able to order it in the tall bottle as recently as March, so it's not as unobtainable as some others...

Great review of a great ink! Thanks for sharing!

[swanjun]

Such a nice one! I have been hoarding mine but should try it soon.

[saskia_madding]

I do love this one so. I wonder how it compares to Joyful Myogi Umber. Hmmmmm ...

and sold by Atsu on Ebay , ( 21tgif, ) March 3 ($72.00) & March 24 ($52.00) so perhaps that will also be another source

Without side by side comparison, I'd guess that Myougi Umber is yellower? I'd never seen it sheen though.

[Mulrich]

Ugh. Another ink to add to my list to try. I can't keep up.

[DrDebG]

Great review! It is an interesting ink. Truthfully, it isn't a color I prefer, but it is really different.

I bet you're right. I'll try to do a comparison in the next few weeks.

That would be great! I was tempted to bid on the last bottle of Myogi Umber Atsu had up for auction, but ultimately decided not to.
