Noodler's King Philip Requiem - Ink Profile

Описание: In this video I review Noodler's King Philip Requiem by showing you writing samples on: Tomoe Paper 68 + 52 gsm, Clairefonaine 90 g, CVS Caliber and Rhodia 80 gsm paper plus Midori. I also show you water resistance test results, chromatography, and a color comparison panel. This ink was my day 8 ink for September 2020 #30inks30days with www.inkjournal.com
I'm still working on a hex code (which is new to me completely), I'm about here right now but I'm not sure if it's correct: 760094 you can go to Ink Swatch website to look at inks and soon I will have this tile sent over to Matt for inclusion on the website -- I wanted to try and give him the most accurate color code I can get before doing so:

This King Philip Requiem ink is a limited re-release this time in a 22 bottles containing 16 ounces each. It was originally (I think) released in 2015 -- here is Nathan's video - it has some fascinating history -- he starts talking about this ink at 2:11 but the whole video was something I found to be fun:

Here is a nice summary about King Philip's War (fought in the sourthern part of New England) or the First Indian War as it was called:

Requiem = mass for the dead. King Philip/Metacom was leader of the Wampanoag tribe and this ink memorializes him. That's my understanding.
I purchased my bottle with my own money (as a celebration for 3 years of making You Tube videos and over 500 videos) from The Pen Outpost:

My understanding is that his ink is one that Noodler's/Nathan releases limited amounts due to the materials/supply to make it - but do listen to his video I learned so much and it was fun seeing the other labels on the other 2 inks released that year.
I have a sentimental attachment to this ink because it was my pen friend Christene's favorite ink or one of her favorites and she passed away. The ink and saved pen pal letters connect us beyond the "physical" + limited time I had to get to know her. It was so cool to see that she had inquired on Nathan's video about the possible availability of the ink in the mid-west.
Quick Summary of the ink: my likes: vibrant unique color, highly saturated, history, connection to my pen friend, water resistance, great on Tomoe River paper. my dislikes: only available in big 16 ounce bottle right at this time anyway and is limited, bleeding on some papers, possible feathering if you get onto certain paper - I only saw a bit of spread here and there but I was on really hearty paper.
