This is pretty good, an attractive cool satin black. For line drawing it looks much like any other black ink. When brushing, it is a lovely deep black, far blacker than Pelikan or Higgins ink. (I haven't compared it to W&N yet). However, where it really shines is when playing with wet on wet drawing. The ink blooms much more extensively and beautifully than my other inks when applied to wet paper, forming an even matt surface with a slight satin sheen. It also dries quickly. If you are looking for a particularly matt ink, I'm not sure this is it. When brushing out to large areas of black, it covers well but has a distinct sheen. If I want a matt surface, I now use Kuretake Zig Cartoonist ink. Review: Very good ink- almost perfectly waterproof - I do a lot of linework illustrations and use a lot of coloured acrylic inkwashes on my work. So having an ink that is waterproof is pretty important to me. Even though it is not perfectly waterproof the amount of bleed off from the ink once it has settled is so minimal that its negligible. Its not frustrated me in the past like other inks so I'm happy to use it in my work. I'm also very happy with how smoothly it flows in my Pentel Fude brush pen. It is a very vibrant and strong black ink and I will definitely be buying more of this in future. ## Features - Black Star Matte India Ink in a 1.0 oz glass bottle with dropper - Provides a lightfast, archival, matte finish with no light reflection - Works best on paper, canvas, and illustration board - Ideal for technical and calligraphy dip pens - Made in the USA ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B001UN1K2I | | Best Sellers Rank | 342,906 in Home & Kitchen ( See Top 100 in Home & Kitchen ) 143 in Drawing Media/Inks | | Brand | Dr. Ph.

So having an ink that is waterproof is pretty important to me. Even though it is not perfectly waterproof the amount of bleed off from the ink once it has settled is so minimal that its negligible.

This is no exception - a jet black black which dries to a slightly shiny finish and which is completely waterproof even if you add extra water for a less intense colour, very useful dropper too ## Frequently Bought Together - Dr. Ph.
