Pennonia Inks Part 4

I’ve had so much fun testing out Pennonia inks that we are going to continue with another three: Pelican Green, Nettle and Poison Green. Thanks to Shigure Inks for sending these inks over for review!

Swabs:

Left to right: Pelican Green, Nettle and Poison Green

Writing samples:

Let's take a look at how the ink behaves on fountain pen friendly papers: Rhodia, Tomoe River, and Leuchtturm.

Dry Time: 30-50 seconds

Water Resistance: Low

Feathering: Low

Show through: Medium

Bleeding: None

Other properties: low-medium shading, tiny red sheen and no shimmer.

On Staples 24 lb copy paper there was a bit of feathering in every nib size as well as a little bit of bleeding.

Comparison Swabs:

Pelican Green is closest to Montblanc White Forest.

Nettle is a bit brighter than Taccia Midori Green.

Poison Green is closest to Diamine Steel Blue.

Longer Writing:

I used a Taroko Odyssey notebook, all three inks had an average flow.

Overall, I enjoyed all three of these inks. Poison Green is my favorite simply because teal is my favorite color and it has pretty shading. Pelican Green has a little less shading than the other two but all three are great inks.
