Review on πŸ–€ Higgins Waterproof Black India Ink 1 oz: The Ultimate Ink for Precision and Permanence by Jessica Lewis

Revainrating 5 out of 5

An instant step into the past.

A long time ago I learned how to use a fountain pen at school. That was no small feat. I'm left handed and to position the pen correctly on the paper I have to make all sorts of bends. I've been using a drawing set for years and it always has pens to throw ink in. Finally, I decided to check if I remember how to use such a pen. What a return. Even at the beginning there was no spatter, and I learned that the line width can be adjusted on these knobs. Sharp, sharp lines and circles, and I made them by hand. Higgins was the best choice. Some of the other inks on offer come without a dropper and it is very good to have a dropper in the bottle cap. Much more careful. The ink spreads with the right viscosity and does so evenly. More than ever, we are evolving unevenly. We use calculators instead of thinking about math. The printers do a great job and you can get creative with your font choices. They don't give you the sense of creativity that simpler methods offer.

Pros
  • 1 oz bottle
