Let’s take a look at three Colorverse inks from the Kingdom collection. You can find these inks for sale at most retailers including Vanness Pens.

Swabs:

Left to right: Gae Guk, Nalasmalssami, and Taepyeong.

Writing samples:

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

Dry Time: 60-80 seconds

Water Resistance: Low

Feathering: None

Show through: Medium

Bleeding: None

Other properties: Gae Guk has low shading and low red sheen. Nalasmalssami has low shading and low pink sheen. Taepyeong has low shading.

On Walmart Pen + Gear copy paper there is some feathering in every nib size and some bleeding.

Gae Guk is a little darker than Taccia Ruri.

Nalasmalssami is close to KWZ Foggy Green.

Taepyeong is lighter than Birmingham Stormwater Runoff.

All of the inks have average flows.

Overall, all three are well behaved but have long dry times. Nalasmalssami is my favorite out of the three just because teal is my favorite color.
