That... was a lot of ink!
But, as promised, here is the third and final Pennonia Inks review!
Róka Koma is a lovely orange, no sheen but brilliant shading. As with the other two reviews, I'm not going to keep reiterating this point as, quite simply, they all have amazing shading characteristics.
Tihanyi Lila is a gorgeous lavender with a very slight gold sheen (the camera, in a fit of sheer perversity, refuses to show all the sheen) while Törökék is a bright blue with a strong red sheen that really pops.
Vattacukor is a subdued red with what may be a greenish sheen?
You can have the clumsy smudges for free.
Viharfelhö is a dark, smoky grey, and kekfeny is rather similar to Törökék, except it is darker with an even brighter red sheen - I think I prefer Kékfény as it has wonderful depth of colour.
Mustvörös, which for some reason came out very dark on the first writing swatch, and Gesztenyebarna are similar also, but Mustvoros is a more reddish colour, whereas Gesztenyebarna is a darker brown.
Rézvörös is a beautiful delicate peach. Zöldike and Gödényzöld are both green, but Zöldike is a duller green, compared to Rézvörös which is very dark, vivid and intense! With the red sheen, it's quite festive.
Lastly, there's Csontváry-kék, which is sky-blue with what might be a hint of red sheen.
As with every Pennonia ink I've tried, the consistency is almost spot on. A little bit on the wet side, but it dries quickly so this doesn't really matter unless you're using an especially wet pen.
I've really enjoyed sampling these inks. I'm impressed by the range of colours, the sheen, shade, and overall performance. Maté has created some great inks, and I wouldn't hesitate to buy a few full bottles of my favourite colours!
