Welcome to another round of #30inks30days – we will be doing random draws out of a basket for most of the month! I missed doing that, and some of you really wanted to see that again, so that’s what we’re doing!!
Ink: Troublemaker Blue Guitar
Pen: Pelikan m205 Smoky Quartz (B)
Papers: Hobonichi Weeks Sunny Blue, Maruman 185 Blank Notepad, Cosmo Air Light (inksplat protection), and Chromatography strips.
Swatching Pen: Automatic Pen in size 3A. I got mine here: https://www.johnnealbooks.com/product/automatic-pen
You can also find them here: https://www.paperinkarts.com/automaticpens.html
Chromatography strips (6 inch strips that I cut into 2 inch pieces): https://www.amazon.com/Chromatography-Laboratories-Pigment-Separation-Experiments/dp/B07VS4JG53/ref=sr_1_fkmr0_1?crid=PNSR0F7FTQAW&keywords=chromatography+strips+bartovision&qid=1667294302&qu=eyJxc2MiOiIxLjA3IiwicXNhIjoiMC4wMCIsInFzcCI6IjAuMDAifQ%3D%3D&sprefix=chromatography+strips+bartovision%2Caps%2C138&sr=8-1-fkmr0
If you want to play along, post a picture on instagram of your ink of the day however you choose (check #30inks30days on instagram for inspiration!), and make sure to tag your post #30inks30days, tag @inkjournal in your post, and you may be featured in their IG stories. Tag me too, if you want to! I’d love to see what you’re doing.

You're lovely too doll!💜
Good info on this ink. I've never actually used it. I got it and literally put some in a vial for you and put it away. Haven't even gotten around to swatching it. 😄 Hmmm….yeah…it's uh….it's blue! 😂💙
I am so drawn to this Picasso Blue Period Guitar color but Noodler's Navajo Turqoise is magical
It reminds me of Kon-Peki and similar inks. It's a pity in some ways – ink brands probably need to have these more basic colors available but it's easy to not be impressed when you see so many. Hopefully those in the Philippines enjoy using locally-made inks!
This is one of the few Troublemaker inks I own. I love this ink.
This is a beautiful blue color. Bummer about the flow, but I have a couple of pens that are gushers, so I like to make note of drier ones just in case. 🤘🏼😸 And I love that brown Pelikan and am surprised by the nib. I also wonder if it’s the plating, but don’t have a gold plated steel nib. I do like a good nail though. 😹✒️💙🤎🖋
Pretty color. Boo that it’s dry.
