    Ink Review: KWZ Sheen Machine (1)

    Released in the latter half of 2019, KWZ Sheen Machine was KWZ’s first contribution to super sheening inks, as the name would suggest.

    Double Ink Review: Colorverse String and Brane

    Colorverse String and Brane are the pair of inks from Season 3 “Multiverse” series of inks that I, personally, thought was the most interesting pairing.

    Blackstone Ink from Just Write in Australia recently released a set of Scents of Australia inks. These inks compliment the older Colours Of Australia lineup. Two of the inks from each set are blue (or are at least called blue) and I wanted to see how they compared to each other. Barrier Reef Blue is one…
