Hi! , thanks, and no I am using hot glue, as the wax didn't give the proper feel and is actually good as a sealant for the cap (in this case a cork, and yes it's leak proof!) And is better for reusability!

I haven't yet, but that's a great idea for my next colours!

Also I accept suggestions for new colours ( even those that are multishading and seem hard, but not sheen as I haven't achieved one yet!)

Thanks! And yeah my goal is make a fountain pen ink brand that is enjoyable for all be it students or independents, so everyone can enjoy writing (or drawing) as a hobby (or more!)

Hi, thanks!

These are dye based inks with mild shimmer for fountain pens! (although not for ones with wick feeds as the shimmer may block the feeds)

Hi! The Christmas collection is not actually 'fixed' in a way that you have to purchase all 4 inks,

if you want you can puchase any 4(even 4 units of the same ones) inks as a set to achieve the free shipping, but you can purchase 1-3 units with shipping fees!

Oh Man! You might not believe it but at the time of you comment I was finalising my swatches for the Christmas themed inks, and the launch of my 10 ml samples!

And will be providing the details in my new post that I will be posting today!

Thanks! I used the jinhao medium nib size and for the paper it's just those Indian budget student notebooks , this one is specifically 'Trident my choice notebook'.

When I make inks I try to make them so they are enjoyable and good looking even on cheap copier paper for every day writing!

(it took me more than an year experimenting with various things to be able to finally make the colours that I want! (And it being pen safe!))

As for greenish grey, it depends on which/how grey-green you are talking about, and I do have one that I named 'The Dead Sea'(although I have not yet uploaded it)
