Another fine review of a fine grey ink. Haven’t tried this one yet… but I have a small bottle of it in my stash. Must try it out one of these days.

:) Thanks!  Nice to know I'm not the only one with a stash inks yet to be tried. ;)

You're right, I should've gone for Jadzia or even worse Quark...

Captain the Caprnians did not appreciate your gift.

PICARD

What gift?

Data looks quizzically at the screen and mutters.

Cheeseburgers!

PICARD

Cheese burgers?! Number One!

Cheeseburgers.

A common meal, common in fantasy fictions stories of early 21st century, prized by goats....

I bought the big 80ml of this ink. I put it in a pen with a M nib. I thought it looks like pencil marks. I felt let down. A review at a pen seller site described it as atmospheric. 
 

Later I put Diamine Grey in a pen with a 1.1 stub nib. In the writing results, it shaded!  Now I’m happy with the ink.

:) The pen makes the ink, and vice versa!  Such an intricate hobby we have.

Don't forget PAPER.  😉

Never! :)  (In this case, I was thinking one ink + one paper and varying the pens.  But yes, the trio always gives unique results.)

Here's a new "line width" image taken at 100x under a real microscope of one of the lines used to test dry time. The scale marked 330µm is divided into 33µm increments. The black grid is in 100µm increments. For this ink, the line width is roughly 300µm.

      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

      There is still chemistry for processing regular chrome (positive) films like Kodak Ektachrome and Fuji Velvia, but Kodachrome was a completely different and multistep beast. 
    • Ceilidh
      Ah, but how to get it processed - that is the question. I believe that the last machine able to run K-14 (Kodachrome processing) ceased to operate some 15 or so years ago. Perhaps the film will be worth something as a curiosity in my estate sale when I die. 😺

      Take a lot of photos!   If the film has deteriorated or 'gone off' in any way, you can use that as a 'feature' to take 'arty' pictures - whether of landmarks, or people, or whatever.
