Ink Review #2813: Colorverse Massive Storm

Colorverse Massive Storm is the larger bottle in the Colorverse 94 & 95 Massive Storm & Great Red Spot set. You can find this ink for sale at most retailers including Vanness Pens.

The color:

Massive Storm is a petrol teal.

*For my swab cards I use a Col-o-ring by Skylab Letterpress, a medium Pilot Ishime and a Mabie Todd Swan.

Swabs:

In large swabs on Tomoe River paper the ink has just a little bit of shading, but not much.

Writing samples:

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

*For my writing samples I use:

Dry time: 40 seconds

Water resistance: Low

Feathering: None

Show through: Medium

Bleeding: Low

Other properties: medium shading, no sheen, and no shimmer.

On 20 lb copy paper the ink had feathering in all nib sizes and some bleeding.

Comparison Swabs:

Massive Storm is lighter than KWZ Foggy Green but darker than Diamine Teal. Click here to see the teal inks together.

Longer Writing:

I used a Leonardo Momento Magico with a medium nib on a Taroko Enigma notebook. The ink has an average flow.

Overall, I could take or leave this one. It’s a lovely color but it does have some bleeding. I don’t love that it comes as a set, I wish it was available individually.
