Very opaque

Reviewed in the United States on March 5, 2024

Color: BlackVerified Purchase

Man this is definitely the best ink I’ve ever used (it’s the only ink I’ve ever used ☠️) it’s super opaque and dries beautifully, it doesn’t smudge at all unless water touches it, and you can paint with watercolor over it without it smudging too. I think this is not only perfect for manga drawing (which I will use it for that) but it’s also good for japanese or chinese calligraphy, as shown in the pictures. That’s all I have to say, but I hope whoever reads this has a great day!

Works like a charm!

Reviewed in the United States on April 16, 2020

Color: BlackVerified Purchase

This product works exactly how it is intended to work. When it says that it dries really fast, it legitimately does. Less than a minute and any lines that you have put down will be dry. It is a very dark ink as well. I haven't tested it with watercolors but I will say that this ink is definitely alcohol -proof. When freshly applied, you can run a Copic marker on top of the ink 4 or 5 times before it starts to smear. When the ink has fully dried, you can easily go over it 7 or 8 times before bits and pieces of the ink start to get picked up. Side note, not sure if this is just how ink works or something else but if you run an eraser over the ink, it will not lift. I am very satisfied with my product and I would recommend it to anyone who wants a solid ink that is alcohol-proof and is dark. I will say, you need to work fast with this product if you use a glass dip pen. If you let it dry, the glass dip pen won't work. So, just keep that in mind. But that shouldn't be a dealbreaker.

Solid ink, solid bottle.

Reviewed in the United States on October 26, 2017

Color: BlackVerified Purchase

After a YouTuber made a test video for various inks vs Copic markers I decided to give this one a try.

I use this primarily for inking comic pages. It is a nice solid matte black that when dry does not smudge (nearly at all) when Copic markers are used over it. If applied with a pen nib its no smudging. If applied with a brush tip you will get a bit of smudge.

This is my replacement ink for Higgins Black magic ink. The bottle design is better on top of the ink quality. If you knock this bottle over you we're really trying to do so. Its square and wide. The mouth is wide and easy to dip. The cap has two indents that allow it to be use as a pen rest which I have found convienient.

I have not mapped out the dry times but will update if I do.

Great For Inking

Reviewed in the United States on July 2, 2013

Color: BlackVerified Purchase

I'm an American comic book inker in the "aspiring" phase of my career. I'm not getting regular art assignments, so I have the liberty to experiment with different tools and materials for my art. When my trusty bottle Dr. Ph. Martin's Black Star Matte Ink ran dry and I was forced to use the scummy mixed ink I keep for filling in blacks, I decided to try some new ink.

I have to say, this is some of the best ink I've ever used. It absolutely glides with a nice G nib or crowquill. The ink dries fairly quickly, and the blacks are bold. I also love the fact that this ink is versatile enough to be smooth with a nib AND a brush, without containing any shellac that could damage my precious [read: costly] sable brushes. I think that his may be a keeper, at least for now.

Bulletproof ink!

Reviewed in the United States on July 13, 2021

Color: BlackVerified Purchase

I loved this ink! It dries quickly to a very matte black finish and is completely waterproof and Copic proof. Not even the slightest smudge. I'm serious! However, there is a slight problem. Initially, I was a bit disappointed that the bottle was about 2/3 of the way full, and my G-pen was barely able to dip. I solved this problem by filling it with what was left of my 30ml bottle of the same ink from an inktober trial. Although that was a problem for me, it won't stop me from buying this ink again, and again, and again. I recommend buying two bottles and use a syrince or dropper to fill one bottle with the other bottle's ink, that is if anyone else has the same problem as me. I've only bought one of these, so I'm not sure that all of the bottles are like this. Again, it was an issue, but the quality of the ink more than makes up for it. I highly recommend this ink.

Great black ink

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on November 4, 2017

Color: BlackVerified Purchase

Great ink. Bought this for Inktober, and used it to great effect, both with dip pens and with brushes. I also did some really fun techniques where I laid down a line and sprayed with water. I’ve not actually tried this with Copic markers, but I would be very surprised if this ink was ‘Copic safe’, judging by how well it reactivates with water.. I could be wrong, though.

Fast drying, matte, opaque and cheap!

Reviewed in Canada on July 9, 2020

Color: BlackVerified Purchase

Firstly, in the picture I quickly brushed some ink onto very cheap sketchbook paper and despite the amount of ink being uneven it dried fairly matte to my surprise. If that had been Dr Ph. Martins bombay(a fine ink for the price) you definitely would see harsh brush stroke marks. I image this is due to it being fast drying.

The first ink I used was pentel pocket brush pen and I was trying to get a cheaper ink that had a similar look. Watermans was really watery and then Dr Ph Martin Bombay was great for the price but still wasnt matte and fast drying like pentel pocket brush pen ink. Now this one is fast drying, matte and cheap so I am very happy. I'm currently trying it in a brush pen to see if it will clog or not. I will be okay using traditional brushes if it ends up clogging over the next few days though.
