I’ve been noticing a lot of people experimenting with orange inks recently and have wondered what may be influencing this trend. Do you have a favorite orange ink? I’m partial to J. Herbin’s Orange Indien and Diamine’s Pumpkin.
Private Reserve Shoreline Gold for me. Works nicely with a dip pen, too.
Iroshizuku Fuyu-gaki is my favourite, shows it off best with wide nibs to get the variation
Pelikan Mandarine is my all time favorite orange. Smooth and wet in most of the pens. I have always one pen filled with this ink.
Iroshizuku’s Yu-Yake is awesome for shading & performance when I need darker than Indien.
