Diamine Scribble Purple

Recommended Posts

One of the recent purple duo released by Diamine in collaboration with Facebook group Fountain Pen UK. For more background story see for example the lovely art-centric review by Nick Stewart.

 

Scribble Purple is a really dark purple that could seem black at a glance. It flows well and writes smooth. There's some but not prominent golden sheen.

Your photographs show the color and sheen so well, and I love the way the macro photographs show off the paper texture, and the tiny diamonds that dot your i’s and j’s. I enjoy this ink.

This ink flows wonderfully in this Platinum 3776 Music nib. Such a joy to write with.

Scribble Purple looks beautiful. I have Diamine Grape but am disappointed both by the flow and by the way the ink reddens as it dries. If this ink is better behaved, it seems like an attractive alternative.

Your photography sold this ink for me! Definitely getting a sample!

“Many boys will bring you flowers. But someday you'll meet a boy who will learn your favorite flower, your favorite song, your favorite sweet. And even if he is too poor to give you any of them, it won't matter because he will have taken the time to know you as no one else does. Only that boy earns your heart."

Love this ink and your review!

If there is righteousness in the heart, There will be beauty in character. If there is beauty in character, There will be harmony in the home. When there is harmony in the home, There will be order in the nation. When there is order in the nation, There will be peace in the world. Bhagawan Shri Satya Sai Baba

Thanks for your review. On the last picture actually looks black, at least on my monitor. I think I will pass on this one. How do you compare this one with Cult Pens's Robert?

      Thanks for the info (I only used B&W film and learned to process that).   Boy -- the stuff I learn here!  Just continually astounded at the depth and breadth of knowledge in this community! Ruth Morrisson aka inkstainedruth

      >Well, I knew people who were photography majors in college, and I'm pretty sure that at least some of them were doing photos in color,<   I'm sure they were, and my answer assumes that. It just wasn't likely to have been Kodachrome.  It would have been the films I referred to as "other color films." (Kodachrome is not a generic term for color film. It is a specific film that produces transparencies, or slides, by a process not used for any other film. There are other color trans

      @Ceilidh -- Well, I knew people who were photography majors in college, and I'm pretty sure that at least some of them were doing photos in color, not just B&W like I learned to process.  Whether they were doing the processing of the film themselves in one of the darkrooms, or sending their stuff out to be processed commercially?  That I don't actually know, but had always assumed that they were processing their own film.

      Kodachrome 25 was the most accurate film for clinical photography and was used by dermatologists everywhere. I got magnificent results with a Nikon F2 and a MicroNikkor 60 mm lens, using a manually calibrated small flash on a bracket. I wish there were a filter called "Kodachrome 25 color balance" on my iPhone camera.
