Ideal for professional artists and creatives seeking a reliable, high-quality ink that delivers rich color and lasting durability at exceptional value. ## Description Made in Holland, waterproof when dry, great value, mobile phone size, very black colour Review: Fantastic drawing ink - This is a top notch ink for fine art at a reasonable price. Talens makes a number of well known fine art products, including Amsterdam acrylic inks. This India ink is superb on paper. It waters down well, has a nice sheen and excellent pigment grind. On film and hard surfaces (epoxy, ACM panel) it adheres well but gets glossy. More expensive but more refined than Speedball India, more viscous and darker than Higgins India, nearly as black as Higgins Black Magic (but far cheaper per oz/ml). It's right up there with the best inks from Koh-i-noor, Sennelier, etc. Review: Love the ink! Hate the bottle! - I've been looking for ink that is both waterproof AND copic-proof and I finally found it! I've tried many different brands and have done many tests and this ink works best with my method of drawing. With this ink, you can do inkwashes, watercolor, copics all over the inked lines without having to worry about smudging. It's GREAT! The bottle on the other hand is very poorly designed. The lip or spout doesn't really work. Ink tends to drip on the side of the bottle when you pour it. Also I've had times where a bubble would form in the hole basically preventing it from pouring and then the bubble pops splattering ink on you. I recommend using another bottle or container if you're going to buy this ink. ## Features - 490ml Jar ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B001DCDN3U | | Best Sellers Rank | #393,819 in Arts, Crafts & Sewing ( See Top 100 in Arts, Crafts & Sewing ) #824 in Drawing Inks | | Brand | Talens | | Brand Name | Talens | | Container Type | Bottle | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 360 Reviews | | Ink Color | Black | | Item Weight | 1.2 Pounds | | Manufacturer | Royal Talens | | Manufacturer Part Number | RT44727000 | | Model Number | RT44727000 | | Number of Items | 1 | | Package Information | Bottle | | Paint Type | Pigmented | | UPC | 787269201736 | | Unit Count | 16.5689 Fluid Ounces | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Talens - **Item Volume:** 490 Milliliters - **Manufacturer:** Royal Talens - **Package Information:** Bottle - **Paint Type:** Pigmented ## Images ![Indian Ink 490ml - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61Uw1StVY7L.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fantastic drawing ink *by J***S on July 6, 2022* This is a top notch ink for fine art at a reasonable price.
