Diamine Pink ink tested in a medium nibbed Lamy Safari fountain pen in an off-white ruled Paperblanks journal.
Diamine Pink, Flamingo Pink & Coral all have this pink/orange shading thing going on that I don't particularly care for. It gives me the impression that the mix is off.
Cerise was one of the first Diamine inks I tested and I labeled that as a pink. Hot pink might be more accurate to describe the Cerise, but it makes me not know what to do with this Pink. It's very very close to Diamine's Coral. With the odd orange/pink shading it makes the pink parts look fluorescent and it's hard on my eyes even on this off white paper. Can't imagine how bright it would look on white....
It has good flow, is fairly well saturated and has good shading. It's just not for me.
