guess the ink!

[Yazeh]

Monterverde Amethyst?

[Yazeh]

Waterman Tender Purple?

[azkid]

Whatever that third one is I must try some.

De Atramentis Aubergine for #2.

[grainweevil]

Monterverde Amethyst?

NITV. (Not In The Vault!)

Whatever that third one is I must try some.

De Atramentis Aubergine for #2.

Also NITV*. And the third one is Shigure. A dead ringer for it is Diamine Bilberry, if you're feeling more economical. Had them both inked in identical pens and if I hadn't had labels to tell me which was which, I'd have never known.

Waterman Tender Purple?

And another one in the back of the net! #1 or #2?

*Sometimes I think I have too many inks (I do) but this thread always reassures me I'm still missing loads of them.

[Yazeh]

Tender Purple is the second one

[Yazeh]

I have difficulties pinpointing the color of the first one... My eyes and brain are not cooperating, I wonder if it is KWZ IG gummy berry?

Yup!

It's the pressure, it's getting to you.

It's neither an iron gall nor a KWZ of any variety.

Robert Oster Bishop to King?

Pelikan Edelstein Amethyst?

[Yazeh]

J Herbin Violette Pensée?

[grainweevil]

Robert Oster Bishop to King?

NITV

Pelikan Edelstein Amethyst?

In the Vault, and a gorgeous ink, but way, way too dark.

[Yazeh]

Diamine Damson?

[grainweevil]

J Herbin Violette Pensée?

YES! Hat trick! Crikey, the tension was starting to get to me...

(And no, I can't spell Shigure. )

Wow. Ironic that I have a bottle of Violette Pensée. One of my first inks actually...

[Yazeh]

I often scan samples I use in case, someone needs a mystery ink to decipher....
This should be an easy one
I don't like this ink, because it never dries...

Hi Jens,

Good to see you about. It's not a Diamine ink

[grainweevil]

Never dries? Then I hazard a guess it's Noodler's. Perhaps Red Black?

Oh, buggerun. Anyone who feels the urge to take up the baton please, feel free. The old man frets that I must fill his tax return now May is upon us, so in the words of Captain Oates, "I may be some time".
