## Description

Dr. Ph. Martin's Bombay India Inks offer powerful color in a convenient dropper-stopper glass bottle. These highly pigmented India inks not only remain lightfast and permanent, but are also totally waterproof when dry. They adhere to nearly all surfaces and are non-clogging when used in pens. Inks can be diluted with water and used with brushes in traditional watercolor techniques or in dip pens, technical drawing pens, and airbrushes. All colors are brilliant and transparent, except black and white, which are opaque and have excellent covering power. Each set includes 12 different colors in 1.0 oz (30 ml) glass bottles with droppers and a custom mixing palette. ---- Set 2 Colors: Golden Yellow, Orange, Tangerine, Crimson, Cherry Red, Red Violet, Aqua, Turquoise, Yellow Ochre, Terra Cotta, Van Dyke Brown, Sepia

Review: I ADORE Dr. Ph. Martin's inks. The colors are true to how hey appear in the bottle (once any sediment has been properly shaken up and suspended), truly waterproof, no fading. The ink doesn't run and bleed everywhere, it works with every nib I've tried (quite a range, every modern leonardt, almost every modern speedball, several others), and almost every paper (anything your nib scratches to bits is obviously out of the question). It is a thicker ink than many others you might find--it flows beautifully, smooth without breaks, but you don't want to, say, leave it in a roundhand nib with a reservoir untouched for ten minutes. It is ink. It will dry. But that just leads me to another plus--it's easy to clean out. Once dry it flakes off nibs at the touch of fingernail, not counting unfortunate grooves. It responds well to nib cleaning solution, abd of course when wet (again, not counting grooves where any ink would get stuck) it wipes right off with paper. I've also found that it come out of my scrap cloth with little effort, but don't go spilling it on your carpet or favorite white shirt and expect it to come out. I just mean that the scrap I use for cleaning isn't blackened from these. They also are wonderful in painting, and again waterproof, so you can do things like soaking a drawing in tea to make it appear aged without worrying about losing the drawing. And so many colors. I have four sets now, and a couple of additional bottles of the colors I use very often (black, blue, red, brown, gold). Really. I cannot recommend these inks enough. If you're not sure that you'll make use of all the colors (though I find that I discover uses once I have them), buying individual bottles is an excellent idea. I'm sure that once you try it you'll be as satisfied as I am. I welcome any questions.
Review: Emballage moyen mais efficace, pas de casse, mais très dommage que les flacons soient mal fermés, l’un d’eux s’est vidé dans l’emballage !!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What's the difference between the hydrus set and the India ink set?**
A: The Hydrus is watercolor, and the India is waterproof.

**Q: can you please list the colors in this set?**
A: Dear Lesley S., Thank you for your inquiry. I apologize for any inconvenience. Round Set 2 - Includes twelve 1 oz dropper bottles of ink in Golden Yellow, Orange, Tangerine, Crimson, Cherry Red, Red Violet, Aqua, Turquoise, Yellow Ochre, Terra Cotta, Van Dyke Brown, and Sepia. Thank you, Karen S/Blick Art Materials

**Q: Are these inks translucent or opaque?**
A: I've used them over the top of Winsor & Newton watercolor.  Some are more opaque than others.  All dry with a visible sheen, so you can definitely see them standing out from the more matte watercolor with light shining on them.  I was using a glass dip pen directly from the bottle, not diluted, and using the dropper to make lines.  Needed to wash the pen right away, and it took some work to get it all out of the grooves. I was happy with the colors and how fine the lines were that I could make.

**Q: Are these inks acrylic based? I have a glass nibbed pen and I cannot use acrylic based ink in it without it gumming up.**
A: India ink contains shellac.  Shellac is derived from a beetle, it is not polymer based like acrylic.
