Lovely video! After 5 years of actively writing with fountain pens and variety of inks, I have learned one thing: I don't need another brand when I have Diamine. This brand is so affordable, the inks are well pigmented, well behaved on every paper, the colors are incredibly beautiful and they have really every color. I thought I had to try other brands and ordered a lot of famous expensive ones, only to find out, that Diamine already had the color (for a third of the price). With Diamine I don't miss anything. The only thing I don't like is that some pens don't fit in the small plastic bottles. You've got great colors!

I love Diamine inks!! They really are the best! One of my most favorite inks of all time is a Diamine ink. Problem is I put it in a glass TWSBI bottle because I could not get my TWSBI pen into the Diamine bottle. Now I cannot remember what the name of the purple is!! I have to hunt it down because I am getting low. Purple inks are my all-time favorite and Diamine is the best!!💜💜💜

Hehe “cooked sienna” it is called burnt sienna and is a bit darker. Burnt sienna is considered a staple in watercolor palettes because it is the exact color wheel opposite of ultramarine, making a perfect neutral gray. Diamine Earl Grey is in my top 5 inks. Great purchases!

I'm going to jump right on the Diamine Ink bandwagon along with everyone else here. I also have Earl Grey, Celadon Cat & Ancient Copper, as well as Oxford Blue & Aurora Borealis from this brand. They are all gorgeous colors and behave impeccably. You can't really go wrong with Diamine. Thanks, Karyna, for showcasing these inks!!!

Love the swatches on various papers next to each other. After this, I am going to order Diamine’s “Raw Sienna”. I use Raw Sienna as my stables for oil paint and watercolors. It is such an awesome yellow based color. And Happy Mother’s Day to you. 💐

I screamed you bought bottles!!! Now that I think of it, I would love to see your fountain pen ink wishlist and disappointments. Like if there was any ink over the years you still like it but not madly in love. I recently bought vintage copper and I cannot wait to get ancient copper. They both are really similar and I didn't know I would like it. Now you gotta mix ancient copper and autumn oat to make ancient oat. Lovely choices, I can see why you went for the bottles.

@KarynaLovesToPlan 2 ай бұрын

I know, right?! BOTTLES!! I have to think about the inks I tried over the years. The only ones that were huge disappointments were the light inks from Wearingeul. Is Vintage Copper quite different? I wonder what Ancient Oak will look like. I feel like it should be brown!

@nourin_siddique 2 ай бұрын

Vintage copper is ancient copper with silver shimmer. I think you can recreate it with glittering potion. It's beautiful. And the shimmers are so fine I love it.

I absolutely love the colors you chose. I went and hunted down Aphrodite at the Chicago pen show and immediately inked it up and have been loving it. Celadon cat is one of my favorite blues. A reddish brown is an ink I love. If you haven't tried Colorverse a Tau, that is another really nice color like Ancient copper. Raw sienna is a beautiful brown. I really like the way you did the swatches.

Another great video by you Karyna. I love the testing on different paper, it really shows how important paper is in this hubby of ours. I bought the same Diamine inks as you did during this sale (I bought a few bottles more). If you are at your brown phase, try Diamine Golden Brown, it is a lovely brown color.

I like to see how the ink looks different on different paper. I've been doing leuchtturm notebooks to the rhodia notebook in cream and the rhodia paper in the reverse notebook which is white. It;s a fun exercise. I've never heard of the endless regalia paper so I'll have to get that some time to try that out too. I really want to try the celadon cat too.

I also really like this way of swatching inks. I have a notepad from the California Pen Show from Endless and have enjoyed the writing experience using that paper. I haven't experienced any of the issues you had while swatching, but I have only written on the paper with my pens, not done any swatching. Ancient Copper is probably my favorite ink. It is a constant in my Esterbrook Estie (Petrified Forest) with a BB nib made for the CPS by Kirk Speer. I may have to try the FWP Writing Desk. Nice video.

Love how you did the 3 different papers. I’ve been debating trying rhodia paper and also clairefontaine papers and this showed me I can take Rhodia off my list. lol. I like shading inks and it seems that rhodia almost distributes the ink more uniformly maybe…idk. Interesting that there wasn’t any sheening showing up. Adding celedon cat and earl gray to my try list! This was a fun exploration!

Good morning Karyna, Nice inks. I like how you added the different strips of paper to the ink journal. That isn’t something I think I would have ever thought of. Noodlers fills their bottles to the top. Right to the edge they are famous or infamous for that depending on who you ask. I always open them over a towel. Diamine does a great job of filling their bottles too. You just need to be careful which you obviously know. Diamine- Ancient Copper is a favorite of mine. Diamine- Autumn Oak I have never used before but it’s on my wish list. Interesting how the Endless paper reacted to it. Diamine- Celadon Cat is really sharp and is up for consideration in a sample. Diamine- Raw Sienna funny joke there. It is a nice brown that I want to consider. Ferris Wheel Press- Writing Desk is an ink I must have. Loved the video. Have a wonderful day and weekend.

Karyna I don’t know if you are aware but you don’t have to buy all your inks from the same brand with that ‘5 for 4’ sale, you can mix and match. I agree the Diamine are such a good price from a UK company, have to admit I bought a few inks in the sale too but this time myself to more expensive ones - I always find juggling the order around to make the best of the deal the trickiest part 😂. Enjoy your lovely new inks and that testing out with 3 different papers is a great idea.

Raw Sienna and Burnt Sienna are paints that are Pigment number PBr7 and that is likely why it is called raw sienna. Paints and inks use pigment numbers to identify the colors. PBr7 is Pigment Brown red #7 and is common in most browns.

I think every one of those inks looks most beautiful on the Rhodia strip! What diaries use Rhodia or do they just do notebooks? Not to overcomplicate things but maybe the Tomoe River should also have a pasted in strip, like, the glue barrier on the back affects two sets of swatches but not the third? Those tall skinny plastic bottles make me nervous too! My friend told me to set them in a heavy tumbler which works great but maybe not for filming.❤🖋

@KarynaLovesToPlan 2 ай бұрын

Rhodia have their own set of grid notebooks but I don't think they do planners. I think the glue could have affected the Endless Regalia but not so much the Rhodia. I know of a couple of makers who have a holder for these Diamine ink bottles - may need to research those!
