Review: Excellent quality, favorite inks!! Great price for what you get! - Buying this is is the best thing I could do! The price is very fair for what you get. I'm an illustrator and I work mainly with watercolors and inks. I've tried many inks and this is by far the best! If you don't have the money to buy both sets, set #1 will do specially because it contains white and black inks. I've seen this being sold separately in craft stores and they are way more expensive that way. This inks are waterproof and won't bleed once they are dry even if you add water, which is great if you want to do a lineart with them but paint with watercolors.They're shiny once they dry and have the most beautiful and intense pigment I've used. I highly recommend them, also the color is so intense that usually you just need a drop or top for very large areas, so this ink will last a lot of time.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What is the difference difference between the Bombay ink and the hydrous watercolor?**
A: The Hydrus Watercolor can be reactivated with water after it's dry, and the Bombay Ink is waterproof. While wet, both act very similarly. Both are pigmented and do not use dyes, so neither will fade for many years, and both possess very similar transparency. Hydrus Watercolor will not clog pens because it readily dissolves in water.

**Q: Can these inks be used with dip pens for calligraphy?**
A: The Dr. PH Martin's Bombay India Inks can be ussed with dip pens for Calligraphy. They should not, however, be used in fountain pens, as it will clog them quickly, and the clean up effort is nearly impossible.

**Q: if you are a watercolorist, have you tried these, alongside more traditional wc paints? if so, how well did they perform together? (thank you)**
A: I've used these with both professional Holbein paint and student grade Winsor & Newton paint. They blend, mix and lift just the same.

**Q: How do you apply the ink?**
A: I use these inks as a permanent watercolor.  I allow the first layer to draw before the next.  All layers are very diluted.  It's a very concentrated ink and will go a long way.

An excellent set of colors! easy to use, dries quickly, good ink quality

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ My Absolutely Preferred Brand of Ink
*by E***B on August 6, 2016*

I ADORE Dr. Ph. Martin's inks. The colors are true to how they appear in the bottle (once any sediment has been properly shaken up and suspended), truly waterproof, no fading. Do note that this some of these inks are light colors. Again, true to appearance, so they don't darken when written with. White ink on white paper is extremely difficult to read--but white ink on dark paper is a really nice effect! The ink doesn't run and bleed everywhere, it works with every nib I've tried (quite a range, every modern leonardt, almost every modern speedball, several others), and almost every paper (anything your nib scratches to bits is obviously out of the question). It is a thicker ink than many others you might find--it flows beautifully, smooth without breaks, but you don't want to, say, leave it in a roundhand nib with a reservoir untouched for ten minutes. It is ink. It will dry. But that just leads me to another plus--it's easy to clean out. Once dry it flakes off nibs at the touch of fingernail, not counting unfortunate grooves. It responds well to nib cleaning solution, abd of course when wet (again, not counting grooves where any ink would get stuck) it wipes right off with paper. I've also found that it come out of my scrap cloth with little effort, but don't go spilling it on your carpet or favorite white shirt and expect it to come out. I just mean that the scrap I use for cleaning isn't darkly or noticeably stained from these. They also are wonderful in painting, and again waterproof, so you can do things like soaking a drawing in tea to make it appear aged without worrying about losing the drawing.
