I'm a bit curious, has anyone ever tried using their inks to paint with? If so do they work like water colors?
 I havent' painted anything other than a few rooms in a house and a couple fences since high school, and since I have some old inks that I don't use anymore I was just wondering if anyone has had experience with them. |

Hi
It doesn't work so well unless you have a very porous surface like canvas but will have a wide spread as it is actually pigment in carrier solution rather than an oil or water based solvent. I tested some out on various surfaces and paper and card look S**T whereas cotton cloth and canvas worked better. I am trying my hand at a few art classes to get back into things and damn i forgot how bloody hard it is to draw something  Take Care Matthew |

it aint worth even bothering tim, you wont get any good results....... you would be better off buying a cheap set of acrylic water colours from the kids section of a department store
