INK REVIEW: De Atramentis - Silver Grey




Really quick review for today...

Silver-Grey from DeAtramentis is one of my favorites from my Fifty Shades of Grey (Gray) post.

What I love...
..the name of the color matches the color of the ink!
..it's a true gray - I don't see any blue or red or green undertones
..no smear, no bleed, no nonsense

What I didn't love so much...
..it smells a little funky (not like mold funk, but a definitely chemical / petroleum (?) smell. Something.
..maybe a little too fast-drying





I wrote with a glass dip pen for this test and you can see that things are a bit thin. I don't think this is a necessarily a fair test of the ink for shading and ghosting.  I'll need to retest at some point.  Maybe I'll do a single post with all of the inks I've promised to retest at some point. It would be a doozy!

Have a great week, everyone!  xo
