Its the month of #Inktober and many of you are drawing everyday, trying new methods and inks and just plain old enjoying using your pens. We love it. In the spirit of Inktober we thought we would share the 5 favourite inks of each person who works at Write GEAR. Today it is Dorcas favourite five inks. As you can see she has a tendency to darker warmer colours and in her own words not inks "that torch her eyes like Yellow does". Here are hers: 1. Lamy Topaz - Lovely colours. Very smooth and saturated. 2. Diamine Dark Forest - An ink colours that represents my fondness for nature. 3. Diamine Wine Divine - My go to red ink. Its got that pop and interest that a standard red doesn't have. 4. J. Herbin Emerald of Chivor - I just love the definition in the gold shimmer. 5. Platinum Carbon Black - I love the matt look of this black ink. It’s great having an ink I can enjoy writing with during exams. That’s the five favorite inks of Dorcas. Do any resonate with you?

The Limited Edition Kaweco Dia 2 Amber set. We have always loved the Dia, it’s wonderfully styled in a classic way with a great feel in your hand. It’s one of our go to pens. The Limited Edition Amber adds extra style and uniqueness to already fantastic pen. And this is our very last set 🙈 Get it before the set is gone forever.

Its the month of Inktober and many of you are drawing everyday, trying new methods and inks and just plain old enjoying using your pens. We love it. In the spirit of Inktober we thought we would share the 5 favourite inks of each person who works at Write GEAR. Today we start with Jamie who has a tendency to favour blue inks. Here are his: 1. Diamine Blue Velvet - A lovely deep saturated blue ink. Writes smoothly and just pops off the page. 2. Graf von Faber Castell Cobalt Blue - A blue ink to use everyday. Its a pleasure to write with, has a permanent component and best of all is one the best inks for cheaper papers. 3. Kyoto No Oto Aonibi - It has a lovely unique colour that looks different depending on the pen you use and also I am just such a fan of the Kyoto look and feel. Their branding is incredible. 4. Platinum Citris Black - I have a soft spot for Iron Gall inks and this is one of the best. Its so pale when it comes out the pen but then oxidises to this incredible mustard colour. Its that kind of ink that gets better each time you revisit the page you wrote on. 5. Diamine Red Dragon - Deep super saturated red. It's wild. I love it. Stay tuned for Jesse, Dorcas and Alicias favourite inks in the next few weeks 🙂
