Do you have any inks that you wanted to buy after reading great reviews that turned out less exciting than expected?
My biggest disappointment is Diamine Skull & Roses. After seeing swatches online I expected a blue ink with a visible red sheen. Unfortunately the sheen is just not there at all, it looks like an average dark blue ink, not even blurple. I’m glad I’ve only bought the 30 ml bottle.
Agreed. There’s definitely a place for some Noodler’s inks in my collection, but they’re much more peripheral now. There’s not a single ink of Nathan’s that is a go-to for me anymore. And I do think that’s a function of the improving market.
