Winsor & Newton Drawing Ink Set, Set of 8, Henry Collection

I bought Henry Collection pack and love the vibrancy of colors. I bought them for painting and nib pen and modern calligraphy. I was hoping I could use them for lineart before watercolors but, as you can see in the video, all of them (except for the black) bleed. Brown doesn't bleed too much, so it can work if you are careful not to brush heavily on top of it. Things I really loved is that you can mix them to create new colors, you can also blend them while applying (like the green/blue/yellow on the leaf of the video) and they can dry as smooth blends (although it dries fast). When diluted with water you can create soft pastels which are still vibrant. The way they look reminds me of copic markers, so I will use them as a cheaper alternative. Because of all the uses I can give to them (painting with them similar to watercolors, or for calligraphy or even instead of alcohol ink markers), I would definitely recommend them. Also because of how pigmented these inks are. I have noticed that some reviews mention that a bottle leaked. In my case, it was sent to NY, then it traveled to Finland and my inks arrived in perfect condition. I'm really happy with them!

This brand is so good , and worth the price . Good quality acrylic ink

Bright color and easy to use

Nothing like the vibrant pigmented classic Winsor & Newton inks to make your work pop. This will always be my go to. I bought the 8 color pack main for for red/scarlet. I was a bit disappointed with scarlet color however, it came out looking very pink. But worked great with a brush and classic ink and nib pen tip.

The colors are all lighter and brighter than expected. I love their little sturdy glass bottles as well. Black is included in this set, which is great if you don't have that yet. This is really more of an all in one ink set due to that inclusion. Colors goon clear and easy. The mixtures are clear of debris, even after heavy use. Make a palette once you get these to really get a feel of the color. The yellow is very gentle. The brown is surprisingly warm and pops very well. The violet is deep and exciting, as is the magenta. Black is the classic rich and near opaque that ink artists are used to. Green is okay. Applied in layers, though, it is fantastic. Far and away the best ink in the set is the orange. It is my go-to in the set. If you have any interest at all in buying this, if you are down to your last dollars and are thinking of buying this, then BUY IT!

Winsor and Newton drawing ink is, in a word, incredible. This is one of two sets, but aside from both having black their colors are a bit different. I believe the Henry collection pack has slightly darker tones and more secondary colors while the William collection is brighter. Both sets are boldly colored and will definitely pull their weight while drawing with them. Regarding the ink itself, it's dye-based and has a range of applications. You can do line art, paint (ink?) in colors, use a dipping pen for writing (do NOT use a fountain pen, it wasn't made for this kind of ink!), and if you're daring you could also mix the colors together for new combinations. If you need a light tone, simply thin it out with water. All colors are water resistant once they're on the page, so they will not be smearing easily. The ink dries reasonably quickly, doesn't bleed, and its transparency allows for colors to be layered on top of one another for added depth. My only gripe is that neither set has a dedicated light skin tone (the image used Copics for that instead), but it's just a nitpick. If you're serious about drawing with ink, Winsor and Newton is definitely worth the price and a brand to keep in mind. Inktober may be over, but I believe I'll still be using these inks for a long while.

One of the inks completely empty and leaked all over the box

When is come to using liquid water color and ink paint this product works extremely well. Drys fast and blends smoothly when applying different colors. If you’re looking for a good writing ink, this works so well with that. If you do watercolor you will love the blending and blooming you can get.

Presi per un regalo assieme all'altro set da 8 chine, sono piaciuti molto ed i risultati sono veramente notevoli.

This is a great way to enter the world of artists inks. If you've never dabbled before, then be assured that the colours offered here, and the quality of the ink will not disappoint. Firstly, the outer packaging itself, though relatively flimsy, is enough to keep everything together in transit. But the bottles themselves are great - slightly wider at the bottom, and squat enough to reduce the risk of tipping them over in use. The inks themselves are incredible. The vibrancy and consistency of the colours is mind blowing. It really will take your art to another level. They can be used with a dip pen and/or applied with water as a wash. Using the 'wash' technique opens up a whole world of possibilites. They react well to different ratios of water offering a very subtle colouration, all the way to the supremely vivid. the colours also layer very well, allowing you to build up value or blend shades. From loose, washy sketches to fine line pen and ink drawings, these won't let you down. And, finally, for those worried about the 'value for money' given what seems like a small amount of ink per bottle - don't worry about that. You'll use very small amounts of ink to achieve the desired effect. I can imagine these lasting for a very long time to come.

Me han encantado
