Inks in Use Take 2

The first way I attempted to go about this was far too complicated to keep up properly.

I’ve decided that a better way is going to be to track what is currently in specific pens, and what was previously in specific pens, to make it a little easier on myself.

I wanted a pen that had a huge reservoir that would be my primary for scribbling in my research notebooks. I tested the Lavender Black ink in it, found watching the way it dries fascinating, and it has lived in the pen ever since.

2 –

Currently trying to clear shimmer. Not technically a forever ink, but it works well with the shimmer being cleared, so forever until it is clean.

3 –

Really love the ink, really love the pen – primarily for memories attached to it, but the Platinum 05 creates a nice eye-feel.

4 –

Same notes as the Tiny Monster pen. They were purchased along with some space themed inks as something to hopefully amuse a friend in their last days.

5 –

Was not expecting to like this ink as much as I did. Bit wet, in some pens, but works brilliantly in the Lamy.

6 –

Like the ink in Wayward Pen #1, using this to clean shimmer out. Similarly forever until there is enough less shimmer I can reload the shimmer ink.

7 –

Another pen where I am cleaning the shimmer out. So this is a forever ink until the shimmer is lessened enough to put Diamine’s Upon a Star back into it.

8 –

This ink grew on me. It became a forever ink because there was a chunk of time where it wasn’t in a pen and I actively missed it.

9 –

I did mention I loved this ink, right?

10 –

Tested the ink for the first time, loved it, and now I just need to find a companion ink for clearing shimmer.

11 –

Tested it for the first time, and wanted it to always be in a pen, and then this pen arrived and they just matched up so nicely.

One of the many inks that shows off the part of my ink aesthetic that is “inks so dark they are almost black, especially when the actual colour is green”
