Ughh...it's too difficult to choose 1 ink when you're broke and blue is my favorite color. So far I have Royal and Majestic blue and will probably go with a blue-green ink next. Great job as usual! You make it so much more easier to decide. Thanks again!
Broke and favorite color blue - sounds exactly like me. There are too many fantastic blues and comparison swatches only convince me that I need them all.
Les encres Diamine ont l'avantage de présenter une gamme extrêmement large de bleus. J'utilise et apprécie particulièrement la "Sargasso Sea" et la "Majestic" et envisage d'éventuels mélanges entre encres bleues plus ou moins foncées ...
I have Havasu Turquiose and I love it. The little 30ml bottles are too small to get my big pens in to The ones sold in America seem to have wider necks
Hello Eric Wu, thanks for this vid. It helped me to choose some inks from Diamine. But some colors looking really different. For example the Florida blue look so different. I bought it but it's much brighter. More like the Turqaoise color in your list :-/ Bummer..
Mr Eric Wu, Doesn’t like you, Cos he never responded to, Any of your comments about Diamine blue! Actually the real reason he didn’t respond is because he’s currently serving a life sentence for misspelling Mediterranean 😉
The lightness and hue of the ink once dried depends heavily upon the type of pen used. This video will not give an accurate representation of the final colour of any one particular ink. What it will do is allow us to observe the differences in hue of the links relative to one another. For example one might expect China Blue to be lighter, more yellow and green than Imperial Blue, regardless of the pen used.
I don't know if it is the camera or the dip pen but Twilight, Blue_Black, Midnight and Denim didn't come out right. Especially Twilight and blue black came out almost the same. Teal is not so dark either. May be it has to do with dark inks.
