Fountain pens are my preferred COLOR DELIVERY SYSTEM (in part because crayons melt in Las Vegas).

Hi there!

I don' like this ink. Funny (again not all that hilarious) but I love blue (practically all blues) and I love silver, but I think they best fit next to each other (like in an old Aurora pen's blue Auroloide right up against its silver metal). This ink sorta has both colors slushed together IMO.

All best wishes for you yourself. Take care!

Thanks for the review, @amberleadavis!  This is a color I like - and have several of already.  It reminds me a little of Colorverse Ham 65, which is in my pen right now. :)

 

For a shimmer ink it has been well behaved.

You are my blue inspiration, but I think you would find this one uninspiring.

Nice presentation! The colour of this ink appeals to me, especially in these broad nibs. I really like its muted character. But since I’m not into shimmer, and I already have inks that look fairly similar, I can safely skip this one. 

And I must say that it darkened “a lot” overnight - looks like a totally different blue. I like the muted & more pale version better.

Thank you.  Your ink shoot outs are inspirational.
