Thank you. I really like this ink.

[mirosc]

Thank you - nice idea with the software identification!

Thanks... Nice review. My favourite red, along with their Poppy. Diff is subtle but still tempting to use both.

I like this ink more and more. Initally, it was too orange for me. Now, it still leans toward orange but with enough shading and red to keep me coming back!

This one sheens like crazy.... you can see it on the scan above... (on the zoomed text).. "A fun ink..."

 

Capturing sheen on a scan, is usually not an easy task...

 

 

Great review Vis !!!

[DaveBj]

What is the software that you to determine saturation?

[bstnnyc]

This ink looks lovely especially the golden sheen! Great review as always visvamitra Can I ask what your cleaning experience has been like with this ink? I've been looking for a red, because other than the MB Red Chalk which is more of a coppery red, I still don't have one in my ink stash. I recently tried Oxblood and although I loved the color, it was a nightmare for me to clean out of the Homo Sapiens I tested it in.

[visvamitra]

Yes, Oxblood has amazing color and terrible manners Or it just liked your Visconti SO MUCH, it didn't want to let it go.

haha that's a good way to put it! Is Wild Strawberry any sweeter or is she just as untamed as her Oxblood brother?

I find WS very easy to clean out, just like Poppy.
