Sailor Storia Magic Purple (Pigmented Nano-Particle Ink)

Recommended Posts

Sailor has recently released a new line of ink, the STORiA inks, which are pigmented nano-particle inks like Sei-boku and Kiwa-guro.

I've review Fire Red, Night Blue, Dancer Pink and Clown Yellow Green.

 

As the other STORiA inks, Magic Purple dries to a pale colour. I hated it at first, but I'm starting to like it more.

Writing sample

This time I used a Sailor pen, with which the ink is supposed to work best.

It's water resistant, of course.

Comparison

All my purple, violet, blurple, bordeaux, magenta, burgundy... compared. It's hard to give an exact definition of these colours.

Thank you for your review! I was eager to read about this ink. So, so I could tolerate bit more powerful color.

Thank you for sharing! I haven't seen many reviews yet on these Storia inks. It is nice to get a closer look!

It might be interesting to try two or three parts blue to one part purple.

Apparently Jet Pens began carrying this whole line of "circus based" inks as announced on Wednesday, May 20, 2015.

Thank you for the review. I really like the splashes.

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

Create a Ghostly Avatar and I'll send you a letter. Check out some Ink comparisons: The Great PPS Comparison 

Don't know where to start?  Look at the Inky Topics O'day.  Then, see inks sorted by color: Blue Purple Brown Red Green Dark Green Orange Black Pinks Yellows Blue-Blacks Grey/Gray UVInks Turquoise/Teal MURKY

Wow, may I ask what kind of nib did you use for this writing sample?? It looks almost like an architect grind.

 

In terms of the ink, I actually think the shading is quite impressive. As for the color, it is a bit pale for me (sort of reminiscent of a colored pencil) but I can certainly see how it might appeal to some.

It's a Sailor 1911 with Naginata Togi nib.

      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.
