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!

      Oh to have that translucent pink Prera! @migo984 has the Oeste series named after birds. There is a pink one, so I’m assuming Este is the same pen as Oeste.    Excellent haul. I have some Uniball One P pens. Do you like to use them? I like them enough, but don’t use them too much yet.    Do you or your wife use Travelers Notebooks? Seeing you were at Kyoto, I thought of them as there is a store there.

      It's not nearly so thick that I feel it comprises my fine-grained control, the way I feel about the Cross Peerless 125 or some of the high-end TACCIA Urushi pens with cigar-shaped bodies and 18K gold nibs. Why would you expect me or anyone else to make explicit mention of it, if it isn't a travesty or such a disappointment that an owner of the pen would want to bring it to the attention of his/her peers so that they could “learn from his/her mistake” without paying the price?

      Why nobody says that the section of Tuzu besides triangular shape is quite thick. Honestly it’s the thickest one among my many pens, other thick I own is Noodler’s Ahab. Because of that fat section I feel more control and my handwriting has improved. I can’t say it’s comfortable or uncomfortable, but needs a moment to accommodate. It’s funny because my school years are long over. Besides this pen had horrible F nib. Tines were perfectly aligned but it was so scratchy on left stroke that collecte

      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
