Is this good for inking? Seems that it's only good for water color becouse it seems that the color comes out transparent

[blueheronarts]

@BinaryDood Yes, it is designed to be filled with ink with the piston-filler. What you saw in this video is diluted ink, but you can use pure sumi ink, not the regular fountain pen ink or india ink though because it may cause damages to the hair.

@blueheronarts

where can I buy sumi ink then?

And can any Ink be used if I fill in the way the video has shown?

[blueheronarts]

@BinaryDood You may find "Chung Hwa" Chinese ink (sumi) at our online store BlueHeronArts to work with our piston-filled brush. Repeat, you can't use other ink that it not designed for use with natural hair brush.

@Luckyluke133 I meant indigo color chips. I used some to mix with ink to create blue-ink. You may find them in my online store under the color and ink section. Blue Heron Arts (dot) Com
