The latest Fountain Pen video is now available for your viewing pleasure.
In this video I am opening Day 1 of the Diamine Inkvent calendar.
I swatch the ink, do a chromatography strip, a short writing sample and look at some other inks I have that are similar in colour.
I also open the surprise gift my wife has bought me as part of the Advent period.

Humbug? Nice outfit. Like the hat, lol. Looking forward to the rest of the days.

@GarryEves 7 месяцев назад

I do like to try. The hat was an impulse buy when we were in Kmart.

This ink is sticking to treated Christmas cards, which is really good. I like it. Well done Diamine. I can see that faintly greenish and golden shimmer.

@GarryEves 7 месяцев назад

Thats good to hear. I don't write Christmas cards so haven't been able to test that.

Nice shirt. This is my first Ink vent calendar. Great gifts from your wife. I like the sparkling gold.

@GarryEves 7 месяцев назад

The shirt was a chance find, I've got a few different ones that I'll be wearing on the live videos this month.

@michellestephenson1680 7 месяцев назад

I love white/cream pens for that reason too! It was fun to see your Christmas hat and shirt. Thank you for doing this again this year!

This is my first Inkvent! Nope, I didn't buy the inks, but I am excited to experience them thru YT! Thanks for sharing your thoughts and samples! Very informative!

@GarryEves 7 месяцев назад

Thanks. I've done these for the past 3 years and quite enjoy discovering the new inks.

I've opened my Day 1 too (a day early for me as it's still the afternoon of Nov 30 here). The ink really didn't want to play nice with my brush and dip pen for swatching! And the chameleon shimmer was very subtle for me. (And keeping just the lights directly above you makes the color change of the chameleon hard to see. You really want the dried swatch almost directly between you and the light source to see the second color.) On the other hand, I liked this color much better than the other two golds I have! I have Three Kings from last year's Inkvent and Robert Oster African Gold. Both of those are just too brown for my taste (and I'm not a big fan of browns).

@GarryEves 7 месяцев назад

I am not certain yet about this ink. I need to get it into a pen to see how it performs. I may try it in my Nahvalur Key West Islamorada, which is a sparkly gold coloured pen.

@StaticCling99 7 месяцев назад

This color is stunning. I might get a gold Jinhao x750 medium nib just for it

@GarryEves 7 месяцев назад

That made me think of a gold Jinhao I have, I may try it in there.

It’s still 30 November where I live as I watch your video. Can hardly wait to open mine tomorrow morning and play with Day 1 ink.

@GarryEves 7 месяцев назад

That's one of the things I do worry about, as I release at 8am here, but due to timezones it's the day before elsewhere - it's the reason I keep the title and image generic so it doesn't spoil for those who are waiting for the actual day.

@RitaCwise 7 месяцев назад

@@GarryEves oh yes, you did a fine job on the title. I just didn’t want to wait.
