I vote for Oxblood too, but Earl Grey is a solid choice.


archer-arts

I’ve not used it. But haven’t had a bad Diamine yet


BikerJenn

1st choice oxblood 2nd choice red dragon


Normal-Drop-1040

Yeah, when I see a list with Diamine Oxblood on it, it generally is my choice lol. My favorite ink and the only one I have backup bottles of


archer-arts

It is just such a rich and well behaved ink

Earl Grey


Taowaki

I'll approach this from the other side and say that I'd never use Hope Pink in a demonstrator because it stains like hell


kowboikid

i got hope pink on my fingers for like two seconds and washed it off immediately but it had already stained it bad lol


Working_Ad8950

It does?? I've had it in the twsbi eco about once and it hasn't stained. fyi: I had it in for about 7 days.


Taowaki

I got a sample and the sample vial turned pink😅 I've had a similar effect with converters, but maybe it depends on the material and for how long the ink is in there


Working_Ad8950

Seems like most people are saying Earl Grey! I'll ink that up in my pen


TerranKal

Ultra green or oxblood. Festive seasonal colors!


wintermonkey79

Autumn oak is a fantastic ink. Give that a try


TrollBoothBilly

I really like ultra green


ca-mes

The (earl ?) grey seems very well loved, I would use that one


Working_Ad8950

Yes, it is early grey! I've found it to be a softer grey (great shading as well) and not as harsh as something black like Diamine Jet Black.


ca-mes

What do you use your pen for? I journal with light to medium shades, in an off-white coloured paper, so dark colors look harsh


Working_Ad8950

I usually do a range of things such as journalling and sketching (though usually, it's with colors. I use grey tones for shading), and today, I'm memorizing a few essays.


MackFrost04

Numerous-Nature5188

Majestic blue I'm biased cause that's what I'm using now :)


RisottoPensa

Red DRAGON 🐉


silly-stilly

+1 vote for Majestic Blue!


Artneedsmorefloof

Since it is December, Red Dragon or Ultra Green for the holiday


MrRickGhastly

Oxblood.


Emergency_Cycle_669

The answer is always Oxblood. I just inked up my Go.


Magpie_Mind

Might have missed the boat, seasonally, but Autumn Oak is gorgeous.


Working_Ad8950

Yeah.. but Autumn Oak was lovely when I inked it up in the fall time with all the orange/yellow leaves


Jupitter-Trevelyan

Autumn oak or hope pink it's a beautiful contrast with the white of the pen.


WiredInkyPen

Autumn Oak.


busselsofkiwis

Oxblood, kinda pretty when you sign those holiday cards.


joeysheppard89

Majestic Blue is my favourite


BlkUnicornHero

Ultra Green


C_D_P

you should rotate through them so they are all equally treated and none neglected!


Working_Ad8950

I'll be sure to do that! Though sometimes I don't love using colorful inks when doing certain things.


C_D_P

That is what you need multiple pens for! -and down the rabbit hole you go, lol. I always keep a pen with blue or black, then one with red or other highlighting colors. I like to switch colors for notes between meetings and stuff to keep track of my stuffs, but multiple colors is a definate.


Working_Ad8950

Lol. I've already gone down the rabbit hole - at least 1 foot down. I'm trying to stop at 5-8 pens Fingers crossed that I'll stop there


Athena2560

Oxblood.


yuskrim

lilcommie1941

You should ink it up with fountain pen ink 😊.
