A quick look at Diamine Grey..
This color is a true gray (grey, for those of you who insist). Stately and professional as I said in my Fifty Shades of Grey post last month.
It’s a bit darker than I like. If I’m going to get that close to black, I may as well go black.
It smeared a bit on my Hammermill Premium paper, but it’s tolerable. Some shading is nice. Tiny bit of feathering – even on the index cards below.
The water test is a fail – not so much from the Q-Tip across “Water Test,” but more from the standing test in the word “from” below.
But..it is a true gray (ok, grey!) and I do appreciate that.
I’m not going to buy a full bottle of this ink (testing was done from a sample as usual). There’s just nothing that special about it.
Tyler Dahl LOVED this ink. A true sign that YMMV.
Have you tried it? What do you think? Wonderful or just meh?
