Robert Oster Signature Inks - Part 2


Cyber6

Recommended Posts

 

PPS is a brighter, more pure blue, as you can see above. School Blue is more of a mild Blue-Black.

It can, though, depend on the pen, paper, angle of the sun, whether you've forgotten to take your sunnies off when you came inside, etc, etc.

At one stage I thought that Visconti Blue was a clone of PPS, so I wouldn't trust my word on anything.

Thanks for that. It certainly looked a lot brighter to my eye when on its own, but like many blues others suffers in comparison to PPS.

 

Still a nice share though.

Cyber6, thank you so much for these beautiful photographs and thoughtful comments. I just loaded a pen with School Blue, my first (along with Copper) venture in the RO world. My goodness, what a beautiful ink. Just blew me away. Stunning color and performance. Just as a side note that might be of interest, I'm seeing much more green in the ink that the comments above reveal. I tend to think of color as objectively observed, but I suppose we all have different eyes, and may see things differently. Oh, Copper is nice, too, unlike anything else, and really looks like copper, given the caveat that copper can look a lot of different ways.

I'm planning to get Robert Oster ink and kind of indecisive which color I should choose. Reading your review actually make it even harder to decide because all of them are pretty colors hahaha. But thank you so much for this!

      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

      Agreed.  And I think it’s good to be aware of this early on and think about at the point of buying rather than rationalizing a purchase..

      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
