I Promised An Update On Inks...

Okay, I promised to write a bit more when the inks arrive.

Well, they arrived today while I was at work.

The packing was immaculate---bubble wrapped padding in the box of the iroshizuku ink to prevent movement, ziplock bag around the box of the ink itself, followed by bubble wrapping, then an additional box, followed by more bubble wrap, before having both boxes (one containing both asa-gao bottles, and one for the fuyu-gaki one) sealed in a bubble-wrap based envelope.

Yeah, those bottles did not go anywhere. Kudos to Cityluxe.

As to the inks themselves, well asa-gao is as expected, so nothing new to add. But the fuyu-gaki, it looks more vibrant than the Pelikan 4001 Brilliant-Red ink.

And that's a wrap. All in all, it was a good [online] shopping experience with Cityluxe---definitely will go back to them for more stuff in the future.

Till the next update.
