2998. New inks: Pilot Iroshizuku!

I admit it's a bit of a stretch for me to get several small bottles of ink of Pilot Iroshizuku, but I didn't regret it. Turns out, two out of the six bottles I bought were already discontinued – I didn't know about it until now!

I don't want to buy large bottles because my work is primarily digital but it's reassuring to have analog tools ready to use. Also, budget wise, it's better to collect tiny bottles than large bottles that I end up won't use as much.

Surprisingly, the colours are darker than I expected! It's pleasant to see. I don't like writing with bright inks, and I thought these inks – at least the orange and reddish ones – would be too bright that I can only use it for occasional writing. Seems like I can write more with it without problem.

I can see myself doodling with these inks every now and then, but because Iroshizuku aren't really waterproof perhaps it'd be side doodles instead of 'serious' ones. But, those side doodles are the most interesting ones anyway, right...?
