I love BPC ink mixing videos. I got some samples a while back and did a lot of ink mixing myself, but I just dip the end of a paint brush into each and mix the little dots directly on the page. Probably a bit less precise but that’s fine 😊
Monteverde "brown sugar" has been one of my favorite brown inks for a long time. Here's some trivia for you: as far back as medieval times, there have been recipes for making brown inks from the husks of walnuts.
@@stevekail4543 I searched brown sugar and it’s a beautiful rich brown! I hope I could find a sample somewhere. And thank you for the trivia! I wonder what’s the process in making the ink and what preservatives the use!
@@Adventuresover40 I’m glad you loved it and found a couple of inks to add to your wish list. Which ones are your favorite? Do you have other favorite brown inks? ☺️
@@lalunebunny picking a favorite is hard. So many good ones. I have Sailor 373 inked up right now and I am absolutely loving it. I also have Lie De Thé inked up. A few browns that I love are BPC distressed leather, Robert Oster choc pudding and Monteverde Moonstone. Oh and BPC Arabica bean is another good one.
The baby colors are very pretty. I'm terrible at naming ink colors! My favorite of your mixtures is the last green. I'd probably call it Brocolli. You make mixing colors look easy, and I'm inspired to try it. A very enjoyable video. Cheers!
Your video format is lovely! I'm a fan of BPC inks. I keep Boxcar Kiwi inked in a pen, I love writing with it. Stage Coach and Chicken Coop are other favorites. It's great to see your swatches, very helpful. Cheers!
Colorverse taepyeong is one of my favorite colors. Will need to try it in my pelikan because I find it a tad dry of an ink but the color is worth the experimenting.
Rotten Straw, Saltwater Taffy, Periwinkle, and Salmon Hors d'Oeuvre are so pretty! 💛🧡💜🩷 You have quite a number of these hard-to-source inks! So lovely. ❤️
I have the Briolette in luminous neon (the ends are a yellow-green). I bought the fine point and it is a wet writer too. You were lucky to get that nice pen rest, in the USA you just get the converter and a long blue cartridge. I think the glow in the dark feature just adds to the fun!
@@Marshallmallowlol go for it! I have been enjoying this pen so far! And thank you for appreciating the review. I’m glad you liked it as English is not my native language.
I don't know if Goldspot ships to your location but if they do you may enjoy getting a bottle of their exclusive Wearingeul H.P Lovecraft "Call of the Cthulhu" ink. It's an extremely dark teal. I bought some and feel it's a nice addition to my collection.
@@lalunebunny The Cthulhu ink is currently in my BENU AstroGem "Klio" with a fine nib and it seems to work well. The only really dedicated pen I have is a BENU Euphoria "Love Story" that I use with Organic Studios "Nitrogen" ink. "Nitrogen" is an ink with an extreme sheen. I don't have a specific pen for shimmer inks.
@@stevekail4543 i heard that Organic studios Nitrogen is such a sheen machine. Do you own other organic studios inks? How do they perform? And also curious have you encountered an ink that developed molds?
@@lalunebunny "Nitrogen" is the only ink I have from Organic Studios. It's fun but takes a long time to dry. The only other Wearingeul product I have is their Glitter Potion in "Brain" that lets you add shimmer to any ink. Pre COVID I had a couple of bottles of Monteverde ink develop mold. They seem to have fixed that problem as I now use Monteverde ink all the time without any issue.
@@artemisceleste yayy! I’m glad you liked this palette. I already finished all the pens inked on this video and currently grouping the next batch of pens to ink.
Same here! 🥰 and thank you for appreciating! Lately I have been into moody and grey blues though! Maybe because of the rainy season from where I am from
@@lalunebunny I agree on choosing colors based on the season. Even though moody colors I can do all year, I notice I’m drawn to colors based on season or mood. Enjoy using all those wonderful colors.
