• Colour: Ochre, as I have always seen it is a red or a yellow colour. I suppose technically there is red and yellow in here, but it’s pastel enough to be considered pink. Love it.
• Special Attributes:
  • Shade: Yes, very stark shading.
  • Sheen: None.
  • Shimmer: No.
• Watercolour Usage: This ink is relatively firm against water. There is some nice fading that I got out, but water tends to wash it away as can be seen on the bottom left of the drawing.
• Harkens to Mind: Rust, peach roses, dusty once-pink chiffon robes.
• Similar to: It’s a paler, and more green version of Herbin Rouille d’Ancre.
• Expense: $30/50ml as of 2022.
• Example: Victorian actor Charles Wyndham and his epic mustache.

Verdict

I got this ink because it looked different and unlike anything in my arsenal. I was right, and it’s great! I ended up falling in love with it. It is the opposite of one of my favourite’s: Sailor 280, which is a green ink that shades to pink. I have yet to try this one inside a pen though.
