      Thank you so much! This is all dip pen. I use Winsor & Newton ink for both black and white.

        Love it!

        I recently bought coloured paper to make a one off sign and my pens really popped, but they’re shiny white which is is own effect. I’ve been very into them for a couple of weeks now

        I might have to buy some more inks and a dip pen. I currently only own race car green and brushes… so not ideal, but that white looks so good I might have to go shopping

        I guess you mean this stuff?:

        Is the white ink completely opaque? I usually use chalk markers for white highlights on fine liner and ink art but they don’t completely cover dark areas. That can lead to interesting optical mixes in itself but I wouldn’t mind having an option that just overwrites with pure white.

          This is what I use: link.

          It’s a really strong white. I’ve had to dilute it a bit with water to get it to behave with the dip pen, but I’m really happy with it.
