I was making some ink sample records for myself on Hammermill 28# paper. Then I went to write the remaining ink in my notebook...and the ink colors/shade were different!!!
The ink color/shade on the Hammermill 28# paper was darker than on the 16# notebook paper, sometimes significantly darker.
This is the same ink out of the same pen, the paper was the only difference in this situation.
That has completely upset my plans for recording ink samples for myself.
The original plan was a single half-sheet of paper per ink.
Now I am looking at a full sheet of paper with several other papers taped on, with ink writing samples on each paper, to show the different in color/shading on the different papers.
I am thinking of the following 3; 28# Hammermill (cuz I have it), 20# Sugar Cane paper, 16# Brazil filler paper.
This also makes me think of the ink reviews and how much different the ink might look based on different paper used.
