I work with a variety of inks for doing line work on pencils.

My favorite however, has got to be Chinese ink.

Chinese ink tend to be very even and very black which, as any inker worth his salt will tell you, is a rarity nowadays. It’s like most ink manufacturers just suddenly up and decided to stop producing really black ink (cost cutting maybe?). Chinese ink also happen to be quite cheap and is available at most National Bookstore branches here in the Philippines.

One problem with this type of ink however, is that they tend to coagulate. Well, it also somewhat smells bad but it’s a very minor issue at least for me.

But I digress…
