INK REVIEW: Private Reserve - DC Supershow Blue




Woo Woo!
I love you!
DC Supershow
Blue!

Look at that color! Super-saturated. In yo face, blue!  Private Reserve did a great job with DC Supershow Blue.

But..it's not perfect, is it?  Look at the water test. Check out, especially, where "from" should be written. That is where a droplet of water was placed and allowed to sit. Fail. And the smear? It definitely smeared, oh yeah. But this is a blue, not a black - we can't expect perfection, right?




This is a blue I could fall in love with. I get all blue from this color - I don't see purple like I did with Noodler's Baystate Blue.





This is a blue I could fall in love with. I want to fall in love. I want to. I neeeed to fall in love with this blue. Except - it's feathery. And it's wet. And it smears like cheap peanut butter (what does that even mean!).


I want to love it, but I cant. Not yet, anyway. I'm going to give this another go. In a different pen. Maybe something with a super fine nib to slow it down just a bit. Maybe on a different paper.

What Others Say...

Goulet Pens where it's available for $8.75

Stay Tuned....Later today, I'm going to be talking about the Edison Nouveau LE Encore!
