A full-page ink swatch of Letter from Platycodon, a mauve chromoshading ink from Kitty Inkpot that shows darker indigo haloing and some patches of a subtle coral/peach shade.
#30inks30days Day 7 is KIP - Letter From Platycodon. This is a warm mauve ink which shades into a peachy coral-leaning pink, with patches and haloing of dark indigo. The pink is a little more pronounced in reality, but overall the effect is pretty subtle.

A full-page ink swatch of Kitty Inkpot's A Certain Peach Tree, a heavily chromoshading ink with a beige-grey base that shades into brown, green, blue, teal and burgundy. It looks a bit like an oil slick on the page, just not shiny!
Day 6 of Kitty Inkpot #30inks30days is A Certain Peach Tree. Is it green? Is it beige-grey? Is it a rich burgundy? All of the above! This was an early example of Kitty Inkpot's no-holds-barred approach to chromoshading inks and I love its madness.

Day 5 of Kitty Inkpot #30inks30days is A Certain Letter, a slightly pastel pink base colour with a much more intense pink-red in pooled areas, chromoshading into some grey-blues. I've inked this up several times and really enjoyed it each time.

A full page ink swatch of a Kitty Inkpot ink, with the in name and brand at the top, and then two large swatches of the ink in large patches to show off the colour and shading properties of the ink.
Day 4 of Kitty Inkpot #30inks30days is A Certain Blue Whale from their Season 2 collection. It's a lovely muted grey-blue that shows muted teal and a more saturated dark blue in chromoshading. I’m usually quite "meh" about most blue inks, but I really like this one.

Day 3 of #30inks30days: this is KIP's Candle Flame in the Forest, a gorgeous cool green with blue undertones and a coppery-red haloing sheen. Also, it looks super-cool when it's drying; it goes down a dark blue teal and gradually reveals the green as it dries.

A full page ink swatch of Dissipate the Mist from Kitty Inkpot, a bright turquoise/teal blue.
Day one of #30inks30days and I’m doing a full month of Kitty Inkpot inks for April. Kicking off with my favourite from their first season collection, Dissipate the Mist is a very pretty teal/turquoise blue with an unusual texture.

Just a quick one today, these are a few swatches from several weeks ago, testing out new inks from a lovely pen friend. Lots of potential faves here!

A page of ink swatches forming an approximate rainbow, with a Just Turnings fountain pen with swirly resin that matches the inks perfectly.
Another day, another page of pretty inks! This was pure serendipity; I'd picked out a random selection of recent arrivals during my last Soe & Soe order and it turned out they made a palette like I'd curated it. (Also, yet again this pen is a perfect match. It's magic.)
