Van Dieman’s Sailor’s Delight on Midori MD

Ink

Red sky at night, sailors’ delight.
Red sky at morning, sailors’ warning.

Wikipedia

Sailor’s Delight, from the discontinued Midnight Series, takes inspiration from the rhyme above. Although the ink is no longer in production, you can still find it being sold at some retailers (as of April 2022). The ink is a bright orangey-red with a wet flow.

On Midori MD paper, there is shading, no sheen, no feathering and no bleedthrough.
