Hello all,

 

I received an order of a few Colorverse inks the other day and thought I would post a swatch of each for your viewing pleasure. This is not a review, just a peak.

 

I used a q-tip to apply the ink to whatever stock of paper comes with a Rolodex. The left side is one pass (q-tip sometimes is a bit over saturated at the top) and the right side is two passes.

 

This is Extra Dimension / 27 from Season 3. It's a nice Blue/Black that has depth and some nice sheen that is more pronounced in the flesh. I really like this colour as I'm partial to blue and I love sheen.

This is Warped Passages / 28 from Season 3. It comes in the 15ml bottle packaged with Extra Dimension. No sheen with this one but it is a nice lighter blue.

This is Gravity Wave / 15. It's a very nice turquoise/blue/green with some purple sheen that is also more pronounced in the flesh. I really like this colour also as it reminds me of one of my favourites Pelikan Edelstein Aquamarine, only with sheen.

Well, that's it for now. Once I get these inks in some pens I'll stop back in or write a review thread. And please forgive my horrible photography skills.

 

Cheers,

Sean.

Thank you for sharing these.

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

      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
