Noodler’s Qin Shi Huang Ink Review

Noodler's Qui Shi Huang

Noodler’s Qin Shi Huang is rich red with a bit of a pink hue.  The flow is average but this ink seems to feather quite a lot on the Maruman Smooth to Write paper I used for the written review.  I tried this ink on a Rhodia No.18 pad and my Exacompta FAF pad and there was less but still noticeable feathering.  I have heard of feathering issues even with extra fine nibs which is too bad because this ink is beautiful. There is some shading and the ink is fluorescent.  Qin Shi Huang is not waterproof and has an average dry time.  I really love the color of this ink but the feathering even on high quality paper is a turn off.
