Dynamic for me too, not keen on using it for washes though. I really like Panthera for washes, works smooth and stays darker than most

Do you mix your own washesewith Panthera? I ask as 1) I didn't see any pre-mixed Panthera wash sets and 2) I bought a bottle of Panthera and it looks like I should have gone with Dynamic ... doh!

Kuro sumi is nice for lining but too watery for large solid fill imo. I have dynamic black and will use it on Saturday to fill some tribal

I mix my own, although they do have dark and light sumi washes...haven't tried them though. Panthera is really good ink in my opinion, nice and dark and is good for washesWhippet wrote:Do you mix your own washesewith Panthera?

Thanks Mack. Are you mixing with water or anything else? I commented in another post how when I water down washes they dry much darker than when they go in.

What do you mean dry darker? washes will heal lighter than they go inWhippet wrote:Thanks Mack. Are you mixing with water or anything else? I commented in another post how when I water down washes they dry much darker than when they go in.
As for diluting the ink, in my experience that depends on the ink. Some inks don't break down right with just water for whatever reason...they get a little separated and don't work as smoothly as they should. Some inks break down better when you have some alcohol in the mix. I personally use a 60/40 of distilled water and witch hazel, that tends to work best for me on most inks. You can also use some Vegetable Glycerine in them to thicken the wash up if the ink doesn't flow right

For white I use Micky Sharpz Easyflow. Its been the best white I have used but thats by no means a conclusive "is the best" as others may have better experience than me.

There are 2 types of Dynamic white, I purchased the cheaper one of the two recently, it is like water compared with Eternal white which is quite thick, it goes in ok for hi lites but havent used it for dirty dipping with other colours yet.
I would also like to find a good yellow as well, the Eternal one is not bright enough for me, i like really bright yellows and oranges.
