Sailor (Kingdom Note) Thecacera pacifica

[lgsoltek]

This is one of Kingdom Note's sea slug inks. Interesting for the fact that this sea slug looks somewhat like a Pikachu.

 

The ink is an orange-leaning yellow. The flow is okay but not particularly lubricating. Though a yellow ink, it's much more legible than the salmon-y Ink Studio 173.

 

All images are scans colour-corrected with grey card, except close-up photos which are also white-balanced with a grey card.

Hmm.  The little guy on the bottle may be the best part of this ink.   Although the color in the photographs looks much more appealing (to me) than the color in the scans.

 

Regardless, thanks for another review - I always enjoy your lovely handwriting and excellent photographs.

Another lovely review - thank you

 

Unlike others, I quite like it - though it might be a bit bright for my current phase!

 

I'd be happy if I could just get hold of some of these easily.

All your handwriting is amazing but I just can't get enough of your flex writing! 

 

This is a beautiful color and, if I were to use it, it would certainly be an outlier given my tastes. It feels like the right color for careless days at a sunny beach.

In the photos (not so much the scans), it seems similar to Stipula Saffron.

It could well be! I had a sample of Stipula Saffron before but it’s long gone. I wonder if I still have the splash card…
