De Atramentis Steam Locomotive

The water test turned out pretty good. A fun novelty ink. I inked up my Estie for the review, however, when I use it in my journal I normally just use my Haro glass nibbed pen I don't normally keep a pen inked up with this.

A nice gray but I'd buy it just for the small. Have you tried out Ylang-ylang?

Haven't tried that one yet. Looks interesting, haven't seen that one before

Some of the scented De Atramentis inks seem to have non-scented counterparts, but others don't.

Anyone know if this comes in an un-scented version? The color is interesting, but I'm not at all sure I'd like an ink that smells like coal....

I know just the person who needs this ink - a relative from the UK who, when I took him to see the steam-powered Segwun on Lake Muskoka, Ontario, immediately went to stand downwind from the funnel and took deep, appreciative breaths! But what else would you expect from someone who owns his own steam traction engine??

Thanks for the review, who knew!!

      Awesome! I'm in the process of preparing my bag for our pen meet this weekend and I literally have none of the items you mention!! I'll see if I can find one or two!

      @asota -- Yeah, I think I have a few rolls in my fridge that are probably 20-30 years old at this point (don't remember now if they are B&W or color film) and don't even really know where to get the film processed, once the drive through kiosks went away....  I just did a quick Google search and (in theory) there was a place the next town over from me -- but got a 404 error message when I tried to click on the link....  Ruth Morrisson aka inkstainedruth

      There is still chemistry for processing regular chrome (positive) films like Kodak Ektachrome and Fuji Velvia, but Kodachrome was a completely different and multistep beast.

      Ah, but how to get it processed - that is the question. I believe that the last machine able to run K-14 (Kodachrome processing) ceased to operate some 15 or so years ago. Perhaps the film will be worth something as a curiosity in my estate sale when I die. 😺

      Take a lot of photos!   If the film has deteriorated or 'gone off' in any way, you can use that as a 'feature' to take 'arty' pictures - whether of landmarks, or people, or whatever.
