guess the ink!

[DrPenfection]

Thanks so much, Yazeh!

Well, since Darla isn't around right now to take the next turn, and Yazeh just had a turn (remember how you both won that marathon "guess the ink" that I did in early July?), I will go ahead an put this ink up:

Scan:

Photo:

Paper: Exacompta Bloc Pad
Pen: MB 146 OB nib

The actual color is somewhere between these two.

This should be a fairly easy one for all of you inkophiles.

For the first picture I would guess:

Diamine mediterranean blue

For the second:

Diamine Prussian Blue

And for the Middle:

Diamine Presidential or Kensington Blue

[DrPenfection]

None of the above.

The first image is a scan, so you know the color is somewhat washed out.

The second image is a photo taken under LED light,

Here is the sample in full sunlight:

All the images were taken on an iphone 13

KWZ ig blue #6

[DrPenfection]

No, it isn't a KWZ ink.

Oh, that ink marathon seems... I would go for Ptero favourite blue, Colorverse Crystal planet

The marathon seems . . . ? horrible? impossible? the worse thing you have ever done? Ahhhh, I thought you would welcome a little challenge.

but . . . I promise to never do that again!

But no on Colorverse.

[Pterodactylus]

De Atramentis Adular Blue?

Or

Robert Oster Fire & Ice?

Or

Maybe Diamine Misty Blue?

[Pterodactylus]

And I throw in also

De Atramentis Steel Blue

And

Blackstone Sidney Harbour

[DrPenfection]

I love all of them, but none of the above.

It is also not a DeAtramentis ink (or Colorverse or KWZ).

A life time away, that's what I meant....

Akkerman 08 DiepDuinwaterblauw/ Israel Zeeblauw, (though you have finished your bottle)
Kobe #73 Hyogo-tsu History Blue?
Kobe #48 SuidoSuji Marche Blue?
Kobe #36 Sakae-Machi Indigo Blue? Make west pearl blue?

[Pterodactylus]

Robert Oster Lake of Fire?

[Pterodactylus]

Or
Vinta Peregrino?
Or
Birmingham Cornflower?
Or
Papier Plume Le Heron Bleu?
Or
Robert Oster Taiwan Blue?
Or
Taccia Fukaki-hanada?

[DrPenfection]

All really good guesses, but none are correct.

And I should probably offer up another ink. I just checked the manufacturer's website and they do not carry the ink any longer. This ink was available as a single bottle, but also packaged with two other blue inks. It was distributed widely since this is a well known manufacturer. There are a couple of places that still carry the ink, but apparently it was a limited edition. There are a couple of reviews out there on this ink and sometimes coupled with the other two blue inks.

So, I will leave this open to your further guessing if you wish. If you would rather I put up a different ink, please let me know.

Noodler's Canyon Blue?

[DrPenfection]

Hint (and a giveaway for Yazeh): it was one of the first five inks on "Ribbon" that I posted here on July 3.

Nope, we'll continue. I'm sure mizgeorge has a bottle of this stashed some place under the sand castle

Pelikan Edelstein 2022 Ink of the Year - Apatite/ Aquamarine?
