Bombay India Ink, 1.0 oz, Set of 12 (Set 2)

These inks have some beautiful colours. I am an amateur artist and have really enjoyed creating very bright, colourful artwork. Would highly recommend. They are, however, quite expensive so should be used sparingly.

I treated myself to both Set 1 and Set 2 having worked with the PH Martin’s intense watercolours in the past and been very impressed. A little goes a very long way with these and I am more than Happy with my purchase. I use ink and watercolours a lot and these are of exceptional quality. I would definitely recommend these to other artists who need to infuse their work with a strong hit of pigment. Go on Treat YOURSELF!

Great colours and the ink is beautiful, smooth and solid. I’ve been having fun painting with it. Bit pricey, but the ink will last for ages.

Great delivery, very well packaged, amazing product, brought for a gift, superb quality, will definitely recommend 200%! Amazing colours.

I love these inks, this is my second set. Beautifully vibrant, translucent, permanent when dry and perfect for layering.

These are beautiful quality inks they're the cremé de la çremé

This is a nice collection of colours that work well together; none are classic primary colours. As they are pigment based inks, they have more in common with paint than dye based inks, in that they are a suspension of particles rather than a solution, just like black India ink is a suspension of carbon particles. This means that they can settle with time and they do need shaking before use. Most of them need minimal shaking. The exceptions are Yellow Ochre and Terra Cotta which are more viscous and settle faster than the others. These two are opaque, drying to a matt finish, much like white ink does. This is good on tinted paper. The other colours are more transparent and are bright and clear on white paper and, to state the obvious, distinctly muted on grey paper, especially the golden yellow which seems particularly thin and low on pigment. They dry matt when washed out thinly, but have a sheen where applied more thickly. I have yet to test them wet on wet. On the down side, one slight annoyance is that the Red Violet is virtually indistinguishable from the Cherry Red. And a more general complaint is that the narrow necked bottles with the droppers makes using them with a dip pen or brush a bit of a pain. I'm guessing these are aimed more at people using air brushes.

Bought ranges 1 and 2 great set of colours. Would buy again.

Emballage moyen mais efficace, pas de casse, mais très dommage que les flacons soient mal fermés, l’un d’eux s’est vidé dans l’emballage !!

These inks are a joy to work with! They are vibrant , colour fast , and mixes well. I use them in mixed media , and find it pure enjoyment in my projects.

Good product, I'll buy again

Bought for my husband who builds scale models, and he's able to create a lot of realistic finishes on his buildings.
