No drinks, just inks 😉
🏳‍🌈 Also, Happy Pride Month!! 🏳‍🌈
This ink is a rich golden brown, but once it has dried for at least half an hour, it turns into an even lovelier golden brown with nice shading. You can see this better in the video for June 16 because this ink has had time to dry by then. In a heavy enough application, this ink also has a green sheen/halo.
Sorry about the light tone and focus issues at 7:52 in. There is a SHOCKING change in light tone from daylight to overhead lights because I had the camera's exposure fixed, which affects light balance/color, but since it was getting too late in the evening to be able to see by natural light, I asked hubby to turn on the light in the room, so it takes until 9:52 minutes in until the light warmth adjusts. Even then, the phone's camera seems to struggle with finding autofocus.
As previously mentioned, it is likely for the remainder of the month I'll be using this dip pen, which has a smoooooth JoWo steel nib, so the only #ASMR here is me fumbling with notebooks. I've simply got too many pens inked to be able to contemplate cleaning them later on.
Note, my vlogs are not sponsored by anyone / any company: I just like to use Yoseka bags to keep hand oils off the notebook pages when writing ~ if possible. Also, I like the crinkle sound they make.
As always, thanks for watching, and I appreciate you sharing some of your time with me!
