Love it when you do these, Tas!

From my limited use so far, Herbin VdeG seems like a less saturated, less sombre and less paper dependent version of R&K Verdigris. Less really can be more

 

Thanks for the lovely ramble

Thank you. Makes me realise how much time, effort and love goes into the many "real" ink reviews here.

Thank you.

 

I didn't get on with R&K Verdigris. Too saturated and too shouty for me. I mixed it with grey's and blacks and reds to get something a little more to my taste. It all eventually ended up in the same bottle though. I plan to ramble on about that journey one day soon . . .

Ah, but they don't have your wonderful little stick man who manages to be so expressive despite being a stick man!

Thank you for the great review!

Fun review that shows off the ink very well ! I've my own bottle in the mail - and this review confirms that I made the right choice ordering it. Should arrive tomorrow, and I can't wait to ink up a pen with it.

I know it's not my kind of colour (mine are those "saturated and shouty" kinds ), but it's a lovely "rambling" Tas!

Love your ramblings I'd previously convinced myself that I didn't need this ink, but we'll see how long that lasts... there's a nice range of darkness in the Statue of Liberty picture that I didn't expect based on other pictures.

Looking forward to your thoughts on it soon.

Thank you. Happy to send you over a sample if you'd like a little more convincing. It is a little paper dependant. A lot of it's subtleties are lost on The Rhodia. Tomoe River, as ever, loves it . . .

Love your handwriting and drawing!

And I like Vert de Gris from what I've seen so far. It looks like a subtler, calmer (more soothing?) version of RK Verdigris.

Tas, your love of cloudy, darkish colors has definitely rubbed off on me! : )

Ooo, tough one. I've no idea what you look like, only what inks you like

[Cyber6]

Ok I did my best... I have no training as an artist... I cannot compare to you at all. But after agonizing minutes... I was finally able to do something quite close to my likeness....

 

Hopefully, you like it...
