Oh, I also saw a difference in the base color of the Kilonova and the Neptune Occultation.. the Kilonova was definitely a more vibrant blue and the other was more of a blue-black... or something. But I could definitely tell that people would consider them to be too similar.
I really liked the assortment of colors. I think that if they'd done a better job of arranging them, fewer people would have felt that it was an excess of blues... a lot of these blues are not terribly blue.
I *love* glass. Of course, my father spent his whole career working with glass, he loved glass, and that rubbed off on me. Glass recycles much better than plastic as well. BUT, glass is heavy and fragile compared to plastic...so costs more to ship (both money and emissions from the trucks). Everything is a trade-off.
honestly the blues don't look as overwhelming to me when you lay them all out. it's a decent spread to me given the nuances with the blues. Happy holidays and thanks for doing this! 😊
I think it's is blue lovers who can appreciate the nuances, and the folks who are red or green or something else lovers are feeling underrepresented. 😅🥰
I've enjoyed the swatching & chit chat with all the inks. I was just thinking about them when I found this wrap-up. It's interesting how many people sit & watch ink color videos.... but we just can't help it. The colors have a voice that also speak to us.❤ I'm watching this on Christmas morning. Thx for the work u put in. Color matching would be a lot of work. Maybe just pick a few that are your faves & randomly do a vid as the mood hits you.
It’s like Inkflight - but Colorvent is more expensive, right? Sometimes you get a set of inks that are awesome and sometimes you get a set that has a number of inks that you just won’t use. I love Pulsar Pulse (plus pulsars were discovered by a woman 😊). I also like Brinicles and the Eclipse black ink. Rosette Nebula is pretty, too, and it looks like it has good shading. I wonder why they didn’t have a 25th special ink. Colorverse inks are some of may favorite inks, too. Thanks for sharing your Colorvent daily swatches!! Merry Christmas 🎁🎄
I love all the inks you've mentioned! I think it's inevitable that there will be inks we don't like when you get 24 of them. This one is more expensive, yes. Each little bottle has more mL than the Diamine, but it doesn't have that final bottle on the 25th. I prefer the glass bottles and the presentation of this one, but I don't know which is the better value. 🤔🥰
Merry Christmas, Maria! I think Milky Way would be the one I'd pick, and maybe Moonlit veil. I love the shimmer in Milky Way - It's What I wanted Wearingeul Frankenstein to be. Looking forward to your thoughts on Inkvent vs Colourvent!
Merry Christmas Maria! Wow, when you lay out the whole month...it really highlights how many blues there are. I agree...too much...and red and green are under-represented IMHO. I think my top three are: Red Horizon, Pulsar Pulse, and Milky Way. Brinicles would be in there if I could vote for four...as I am a sucker for teal/turquoise. I do really like Christmas Star, but not sure how / where I could use it? Major the Cat, who actually has yet to wander off the bed to come see me and share coffee/petting, probably will vote for Aquarius Whispers. I think that was the color that just grabbed and kept his attention. Hey Maria, you're doing great! 🥰🥰🥰😻😻😻
@@MariaRosseau NOW THAT would make sense. He has told me that from time to time that he's a kitty secret agent. His code-name is "Mary" which I guess is close to Majy so he remembers it? INTERESTING. Oh and here he is, I must ask him about this.
Happy Christmas Maria! OMG Milky Way I like Milky Way, Kilonova, Neptune Occultation. Kilonova and Neptune Occultation are not alike at all. I need Milky Way!!

Yeah, I agree with that take.
I definitely agree that the distribution of colors over the 24 days was more of an issue for me than the contents of the set in total. 😅🥰

@@MariaRosseau 😂😂😂😂😂 every dog has their day 🥴😂
@@jamessims9475 Definitely.
I think Eclipse silence and Giant Sunspot were my favorites, although I really enjoyed the NG...something, something...the green one.😂
Yeah! All of those were so lovely. 🥰
My favorites are eclipse silence, Milky Way and NGC 2644. Thanks for doing these videos and Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas! I love the same ones you do. 🥰

Thank you so much for the kind words! I line watching these videos from others because it's like hanging out with friends. ♥️
I like Sunbeam the best.
My favorite ink color is blue, but none of the blues stood out to me as must haves.
Maybe because it's your favorite color you are more discerning with blues. 🥰
I'm loving Sailing Stones, but I probably have at least three inks in that family now. I'd still buy it!
Haha I'm that way with some of the blues. 😅🥰

Maybe Major the Cat thought it was called Aquarius Whiskers. 🤣🤣 I love the three you picked. 🥰
@@MariaRosseau THAT would explain his fascination with it. "What are Aquarius whiskers? I don't understand this. I must contemplate. -Maj" 🤣🤣🤣
@@kd5byb Or MAYBE he was concerned that we caught onto the greater cat plan which they have codenamed Aquarius Whiskers. 🤔

@@kd5byb 🤣🤣🤣
I think my favorites from this box are Pulsar Pulse, Red Horizon, Kilonova, Milky Way and Giant Sunspot
Great selections, Pete! 🥰
Can you really have too many inks and too many pens? I must ponder this question later after I place a Jet Pens order. 🤣🤣🤣
Sometimes I think no, sometimes yes. 😅🤣🥰
Happy Christmas Maria! OMG Milky Way I like Milky Way, Kilonova, Neptune Occultation. Kilonova and Neptune Occultation are not alike at all. I need Milky Way!!
