A beautiful verdigris made by J. Herbin.
Quite close to the original in this angle :)

But in washes, it’s truly outstanding and very close to the colour.
Lets starts with beautiful chroma:
75945
Ink didn’t like my Osmiroid and it had flow problems. Paradoxically, it was a tad difficult to control with a fude nib on Tomoe River paper, made the feed was primed :) But in all other pens it behaved flawlessly. Ink is slightly dry.
Writing Samples:
Tomoe River 68gr
Funnily enough the Osmiroid copper plate nib is fine that the Japanese EF.
75946
Midori
75947
Rhodia
75948
Comparison:
75949
It has acceptable water resistance:
75950
A few sketches of ancient "Minionese" statues discovered recently, somewhere over the rainbow ;)
7595175952
· Pens used: Pilot Elite (Ef), Osmiroid Copperplate Lamy Safari (EF/F/ /Medium /Broad) / Kanwrite Ultraflex / Jinhao 450 fude
· What I liked: It’s pleasing/ appeasing gree/grey/ blue. I love the 10 ml bottles.
· What I didn’t liked: Flow was problematic in Osmiroid. Ok water resistance.
· Shading: Yes
· Ghosting: Yes, on some papers, especially cheap ones.
· Bleed through: Yes, with very absorbent papers.
· Flow Rate: Good
· Lubrication: Depending pens it varies.
· Nib Dry-out: Not noticed.
· Start-up: No problem.
· Saturation: Yes, it can be saturated with wet pens.
· Shading Potential: Yes on wider pens.
· Sheen: Thankfully no;)
· Spread / Feathering / Woolly Line: No.
· Nib Creep / “Crud”: No
· Staining (pen): No
· Clogging: No.
· Cleaning: Easy.
· Water resistance: Acceptable
· Availability: 10 ml / 30 ml bottles/ cartridges
I'd appreciate hearing about your experience too :)
