Studio360 Supermarket Ink - Bubble Gum

[pscrybe]

Pretty disappointed with the ink tbh. Really dry with no lubrication but still feathers a lot. Doesn't have any shading which is my favourite feature in an ink and not many redeeming qualities either. Full review on The Pscrybe Reviews here.

Shading: 1/5
Sheen: 0/5
Shimmer: 0/5
Saturation: 4/5
Wetness: 1.5/5
Lubrication: 1/5
Water resistance: 0/5

Thanks for the review, @pscrybe!  It doesn't look like any bubblegum I remember.   And you've successfully convinced me not to even go look for where one finds this brand.

Bummer - I was hopeful for a 'local' ink maker but ... darn it. But thanks for the review - reviews of bad inks are probably at least as important as good ones ...

Thanks for the review. No thanks for the colour  

Even worse the name... Supermarket is a turnoff

I do like the color.  Reminds me of the color of the Vibrant Pink al-Star.  But yeah, what LizEF said -- not a "bubblegum" pink by any stretch of the imagination (which IMO is a GOOD thing...).

Not familiar with this brand at all.  Where are they out of?

IKR? If they're going through the effort of making their own branded thing, why not make it excellent and build a name for themselves? Will try the other inks that arrived and see how they do.

Hi Ruth. It's a Thai stationery store that started their own line of inks. Probably the only local brand of inks as far as I know. I'm not against the colour but the way it performs in a pen is a bit sad.
