Organics Studio is an ink that I have heard more bad than good about. Stories of sediment, dryness, and iffy quality. Despite this when I saw a photo of the sheen that comes off their color Nitrogen, I had to have a bottle. Unfortunately it was sold out everywhere for a while, it was almost as elusive as some Japanese inks that I’ve had to chase. But a fateful day last week I received an email from Vanness saying that the color was back in stock!
For this review I decided to ink up my Pelikan M205, F nib. I trusted that the sheen would be insane, so an F nib would be fine ^_^.

That sheen tho! The time-lapse is definitely worth checking out. The change from blue to that gorgeous red sheen is dramatic! It has a nice flow, great saturation, and medium shading which doesn’t bother me because #sheen. The only thing that I will say I didn’t care for was the long dry time coupled with the “stickiness” that sometimes comes with large amounts of sheen. I smeared a bit while doing the InkJournal entry, moreso than with other inks. I highly recommend trying this ink if you like sheen though! I’m going to stock up on this one!
I leave you now with a photo of the latest Hippo Noto color mock-up, forest green!

Whoa! That’s a beauty! Don’t know how much I like about the drying time but that color variation is gorgeous!

The sheen is crazy on this one. It;s high maintenance ink but it looks well.

Wow! That sheen is amazing. I’m not sure I’m ready for the pen maintenance required to use sticky inks though.

Ooh. I think I’ll have to try a sample first to see if I could live with the dry time and other drawbacks, but I’m definitely keen to try it.

Holy sheen! I’m going to have to get my hands on some of this, though from the sounds of it I’m not sure it would become a regular use one. I wonder if with this much sheen I could get it to show up in a Leuchtturm. Akkerman Shocking Blue does that, which is why I have fallen head over heels in love with it!
