    I appreciate your ink review. The tudor blue interests me. However, it doesn't seem to be one of the 150th Anniversary colors. Please clarify this for me.

    It's a brand new ink that will be added to the 150th Anniversary range shortly.

    Thanks, Chrissy. It's good to know that we can get an early review on inks before they hit the shelves.

    I just popped into this review thread to say that these inks have now been issued and are readily available from Diamine and other retailers.
