Herbin Orange Indien

[girlieg33k]

I started a new rotation of pens this week. While I was inking pens, I decided to handwrite a few mini-reviews on each ink, with swab samples. To save time, I scanned everything, so colors may vary depending on your monitor. I'm limited to posting 600pix wide images here, but click on the image or the link below it to view the full-size scanned image. The full-sized image may give a better, sharper representation of each ink color.

One of my daily ink. I've been correcting with this colour for 2 years.

The new Caran d'Ache saffron is growing on me, but the price of Herbin ink is more suitable for corrections.

 

Thanks

I really like that color. I hope to try it in My dolce Vita. I have to get first. Will order a bottle tomorros. Thanks for the review.

 

 

The Dolcevita really cries out for orange ink at this time of year, doesn't it? My Dolcevita Oversize gets filled with Noodlers Habanero as soon as the leaves start to turn. I'm thinking that might be in about two weeks here in Washington DC.....

Nice colour and good shading! Sigh, another ink not available over here.

I like this ink a lot, and often use it for markup work at the office, where it has two nice features:

 

- nobody else uses a colour even close, so everyone knows who did the edit

- by playing with photocopier settings, it's possible to avoid having it picked up / picked up and printed black

- last but not least, the colour cheers me up a lot on a boring edit!

 

It "lives" in my bottom-of-the-barrel Waterman plastic student pen.

Very intriguing. Very! Between that note and the review, I now need ANOTHER ink. *sigh*

 

Thank you for this wonderful run of reviews, girlieg33k. Very well done and highly appreciated!! Some of the reviews have saved me from buying inks I wouldn't end up liking, so really the reviews that make me buy inks don't cost anything (I keep telling my wife that, anyway...)
