Review of Diamine Shimmering Seas fountain pen ink using a Pilot Penmanship EF nib. • Chapters: • 00:00 Swatch color comparison • 00:12 Zoom (microscope) photo • 00:18 Microscope smear • 00:36 Line Width • 00:42 Written review • 00:57 Dry Time • 01:10 Writing Sample • 02:20 Subjective Analysis • 03:12 Zoom of absorbent paper • 03:37 Quote Writing Prompt • 04:10 Close-up of completed review • 04:22 Scan of completed review • 04:28 End screen, links to channel and previous review • Post-recording notes: Cleaning took a little longer than usual - the ink is quite saturated and needs extra flushes to come out. It also clung to the inside of my converter. This is a dark, slightly muted blue, not quite blue-black, with gold glitter (which didn't want to be seen on camera). I could see sheen if I looked for it, but it's far from obvious. • Screenshot: Color too absent. :) • Scan: Pretty close • Zoom: Seems quite accurate • Absorbent Paper: Oddly enough, shows glitter really well • Copy Paper: too pale, but shows underlying color • The line width measurement is one of the lines used for dry time. Magnification is 100x. The grid is 100x100µm. The scale is 330µm, with eleven divisions of 30µm each. The line width for this ink is roughly 300µm. (For the curious, with 194 inks measured, the average line width is 292µm.) • Glitter is cool under a microscope! :D Three images included - there were other cool things, but they didn't photograph well. :( • Screenshot: http://www.paradoxcommunity.com/vps/E... • Scan of Completed Review: http://www.paradoxcommunity.com/vps/E... • Zoomed in photo: http://www.paradoxcommunity.com/vps/E... • Absorbent Paper Closeup (top is puzzle paper like thick newsprint, bottom is old 20lb copy paper): http://www.paradoxcommunity.com/vps/E... • Line width measured via microscope at 100x: http://www.paradoxcommunity.com/vps/E... • Microscope slide at 100x (crowd of glitter in thicker ink): http://www.paradoxcommunity.com/vps/E... • Microscope slide at 100x (less crowded glitter in thinner ink): http://www.paradoxcommunity.com/vps/E... • Microscope slide at 400x (closeup of one of the flowers ): http://www.paradoxcommunity.com/vps/E... • Images also available on Instagram: @zilxodarap / zilxodarap • Extra Fine Nib Ink Review Playlist: • Extra Fine Nib Ink Reviews • Want to influence the inky sequence?
