Ink Review #199: Bungubox Zodiac: Aquarius

Today is quite a special ink that hails from Bungubox in Japan. I previously reviewed the matching pen here. Aquarius is one out of three Zodiac inks that I purchased and is a deep aquamarine.

This ink had medium shading, and low red sheen. It is a beautiful teal with blue undertones.

I found that this ink behaved quite well and was easy to read. The shading was surprisingly difficult to tease out in an Architect grind.

Overall: This is a beautiful limited edition ink from Bungubox. I plan to revisit this ink in the future!
