Review on 🎨 Dr. Ph. Martin's Bombay India Ink Set 1 - 12 Bottles of 1.0 oz by Tara Ford

Revainrating 5 out of 5

The perfect ink for everyone

Phenomenal ink for the price. India Ink are lightfast and archival. It can be used in different ways. Like paint, for mixed effects, and of course the old-fashioned way, like a pen. I have a really horrible fountain pen for my wish app friend. I didn't think it would be terrible, but it was. Figured I'd throw it in as a test pen anyway, to see if it inspires him to write or journal more because of the style. Well, the ink came so neatly wrapped in his circle of joy, and now he's using a pen. The downside is that I'll probably buy him a proper fountain pen now. I always thought it was in the ink box. What would I do with the ink? I don't do calligraphy and I don't have any fancy pens that I'm going to repaint. I only had a fountain pen once and was more annoyed than I thought. However, I did this with ink in small batches. I use it as a paint. Archival Watercolor! Yes. Adding complementary colors to papercraft. I smeared in a circle (dries quickly). (Will not bleed on cards btw. Big blobs hold their shape and dry. Art magazine. Primer and ink. So pretty. Canvas and mixed media. If you are a beginner or a very advanced artist on a budget but need amazing quality ink , this is your test kit. You get a lot more than you pay for. Very grateful for the existence of the product and will buy again. I wish they had such shiny obscene inks as Liquitex because they are damn expensive and add? :)

Pros
  • Drawing
Cons
