guess the ink!

[Pterodactylus]

What about Jalur Gemiland then ?

Nope, we are searching for a Europe Country exclusive one.

[ChrisJ]

I've another two Diamine contenders

I don't think its Skulls and Roses - that feels too blue so I'm going to guess one I've not seen myself - Bloody Absinth

Right Country, but neither Skulls and Roses nor Bloody Absinth.....

I guess with the next guess you will have it.

[ChrisJ]

Ah ... Smoke on the Water ... All the reviews and images I saw were showing the sheen , but Chrissy's review here https://fpgeeks.com/forum/showthread...any-Exclusive) shows it in a non-sheen light - just like your picture

[Pterodactylus]

Annnnddddd we have a winner !!!!

Congrats ChrisJ




In the meanwhile I prepared another sample, but you already made it.

Anyway, here it is:

[ChrisJ]

Oh Wow - That's wonderful

Not sure my sample will live up to that - I'll post in the next 24 hours

[ChrisJ]

This time we have a darker red with earthy tones - no sheen or shimmer - just colour

Hi,

A very nice red!
My guess: Robert Oster Maroon.

Best
Jens

[ChrisJ]

It's not Robert Oster Maroon 1789 , its very close in many ways but my ink is maybe a shade lighter and a bit less purple

[Pterodactylus]

Maybe Diamine Oxblood?

[ChrisJ]

Maybe Diamine Oxblood?

Maybe not

Its very similar but its not by Diamine

Maybe a limited edition like:

Montblanc Petit Prince Red Fox ?

[ChrisJ]

No I’d say there is a bit more red in it
Also its not a limited edition ink

Hi,

Akkerman has some nice reds in the Dutch Masters line...
This could be Rembrand's Karmozijn?

Karmozijn looks a little muddier than my ink

Its not a Dutch ink

[azkid]

Hm. I think this may be too light but... De Atramentis Oriental Red.

[ChrisJ]

De Atramentis Bordeaux Red is probably closer, but it's not by De Atramentis at all , In fact it's not a German ink

[SchaumburgSwan]

Ok,

what about Herbin of France?
1670 Rouge Hematite is too brownish, but Rouge Grenat is my guess.

The Rouge Grenat is closer , but its not that
And it's not by Herbin of France or any European ink maker

[Pterodactylus]

Ok, not European you say....... what about Sailor Shikiori Yodaki?
