    You have to use another browser. This was happening to me with Safari and ios but worked with Chrome.

    Need a permanent, waterproof brown that has a nice bit of shading to it. This is proving to be a tall order. Noodler's #41 Brown fits the first two, but I must order a sample to test the latter.

    I also want a bottle of Noodler's Empire Red. Goulet apparently used to stock the UK editions, but no more. I cannot find it anywhere.

    Anyone know of another shady, waterproof, permanent red?

    Hi if you're answering my question thankyou. I just tried Chrome and the same thing is happening. I've emailed them and they will manually process my orders.

    If you're not answering my question thanks anyway

    I know you posted this several months ago, but thought my perspectives could help in your search...

    I tested a few samples from Goulet's recently - Noodler's #41 Brown and Noodler's Whaleman's Sepia were in the mix (have a similar quest as you finding a great waterproof/permanent brown with great shading).

    Straight from the 'bottle' both were solid colors and very saturated, though a bit on the dry side - little to zero shading though. Both are bombproof and didn't even move at ALL when submerged in water. With a 40-50% dilution of distilled water BOTH showed a bit more shading and it really increased the flow. I am still a beginner with FP and inks, but I really enjoyed the diluted colors better than full strength - might be your best bet for bombproof and great shading brown.

    Anyone have any feedback on the Cultpens Deep Dark Series that is made for them by Diamine?

    I'm very taken by the Deep Dark Red.

    After recent hype, I think I have added noodlers apache sunset to my next ink to buy. I would also eventually like to get black swan in australian roses.

    I'm very taken by the Deep Dark Red.
    I have all the Deep Darks - the DD Red is my current favourite. I have my burgundy Parson's Essential permanently inked with it. It's very versatile - I use it for personal correspondence and also for work purposes. It performs and behaves well in the PE - no blotching or feathering on my usual papers. Good flow. A typical trouble-free Diamine. If I have time today I'll try to post a picture showing the ink in use, but I'm at work so may not be possible.

    EDIT: Images attached. Sketch is on Rhodia No 16 Dot Grid using the Parson's Essential. Apologies for quality - taken with a phone camera & compressed for posting.

    My experience with all the other Deep Darks is similar.

    I received the new DD Purple just before Xmas but have not yet had time to try it out. Will be loading up into my Pilot Namiki Falcon SF tomorrow.

    Thank you very much for the update and the images, lovely. I also did not know that the DD Purple was now out. Looks like I need to make another Cultpens order.

    On my wishlist are:

    Noodler's Kiowa Pecan, Golden Brown, Habanero, Beaver.

    Iroshizuku Tsuki-yo and Shin-kai

    The list, it grows and grows. I'll likely make a big ink order in February or March. Will try try try to hold off a bit. It's so hard! Impulse buying is waaay more fun.
