Ink Review #587: Robert Oster Motor Oil

Today we will be reviewing Robert Oster Motor Oil. This is a murky green-brown.

Swabs:

This ink had high shading and no sheen. In terms of brown inks, it’s quite a pleasant color that leans a bit yellow. Motor Oil is an apt name for the color indeed. It reminded me of a darker shade of Robert Oster Melon Tea (another great ink, by the way).

This ink had a slightly wet flow and was well saturated.

Overall: I really liked this color! It's pleasant to write with and is suitable for the fall and winter seasons.
