Of the several pink options Diamine provides, Hope Pink might just be the most vibrant and hot. Especially in wetter and broader nibs, this ink is highly saturated and flows perfectly. A tiny bit of shading—depending on the nib and paper used—gives it a playful air that doesn’t jump out quite as much as a fully saturated, consistent hot pink.
Like all standard Diamine inks—excluding Shimmertastic inks and some sheening or store-exclusive inks—Hope Pink retails for € 4.50 for 30 millilitres (€ 0.15/ml) and € 9.- for 80 millilitres (€ 0.14/ml). The 80 ml bottle used here works well for filling all sorts of pens. With the 30 ml bottle and its thin opening, girthier pens will struggle as soon as the level of remaining ink shrinks.
