ASTM D4236 certified, it’s compatible with dip pens and markers, making it a versatile, professional-grade choice for detailed artwork. ## Description Perfect for the manga cartoonist. This package contains one 60 ml bottles of black water- based pigment. Waterproof after it dries. Very quick drying sumi ink, great for Manga drawing. Not intended for use by children. Conforms to ASTM D4236. Imported. Review: Great ink for dip pens. - This ink is solid. I really like how well it holds boldness and sharp lines... even on cheap paper. Super black too. You can watercolor over it, as well use markers. Not all inks can claim that. It dries fast on most paper types. Butttttt.... it's hard to remove from your nib when you are done drawing. I got a small bottle for the table and filled it with windex. I think pure ammonia may do as well. I dip the nib in that for a few seconds and use a paper towel to wipe it down. This trick does the job. Review: Works like a charm! - This product works exactly how it is intended to work. When it says that it dries really fast, it legitimately does. Less than a minute and any lines that you have put down will be dry. It is a very dark ink as well. I haven't tested it with watercolors but I will say that this ink is definitely alcohol -proof. When freshly applied, you can run a Copic marker on top of the ink 4 or 5 times before it starts to smear. When the ink has fully dried, you can easily go over it 7 or 8 times before bits and pieces of the ink start to get picked up. Side note, not sure if this is just how ink works or something else but if you run an eraser over the ink, it will not lift. I am very satisfied with my product and I would recommend it to anyone who wants a solid ink that is alcohol-proof and is dark. I will say, you need to work fast with this product if you use a glass dip pen. If you let it dry, the glass dip pen won't work. So, just keep that in mind. But that shouldn't be a dealbreaker. ## Features - Waterproof after it dries - Perfect for the manga cartoonist - This package contain one 60-ml bottles of black water based pigment - Very quick drying sumi ink for manga drawing - Conforms to astm d4236 standard ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B006MW7NE6 | | Best Sellers Rank | #45,367 in Arts, Crafts & Sewing ( See Top 100 in Arts, Crafts & Sewing ) #337 in Drawing Pens | | Brand | Zig | | Brand Name | Zig | | Container Type | Bottle | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 390 Reviews | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00847340016861 | | Ink Color | Black | | Item Volume | 60 Milliliters | | Item Weight | 0.2 Pounds | | Manufacturer | Kuretake | | Manufacturer Part Number | CNCE104-6 | | Model Number | CNCE104-6 | | Number of Items | 1 | | Package Information | Bottle | | Paint Type | Watercolor | | UPC | 795871649556 847340016861 787461634295 798804349165 683203467407 | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | | Volume | 60 Milliliters | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Zig - **Global Trade Identification Number:** 00847340016861 - **Item Volume:** 60 Milliliters - **Package Information:** Bottle - **Paint Type:** Watercolor ## Images ![Black Ink - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61wa5O1OhZL.jpg) ![Black Ink - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/511i-clEs5L.jpg) ![Black Ink - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41K6sH2bCrL.jpg) ![Black Ink - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51VppaYhKlL.jpg) ![Black Ink - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61RGn1TaulL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great ink for dip pens. *by L***E on January 17, 2025* This ink is solid.

I'm not getting regular art assignments, so I have the liberty to experiment with different tools and materials for my art. When my trusty bottle Dr. Ph. Martin's Black Star Matte Ink ran dry and I was forced to use the scummy mixed ink I keep for filling in blacks, I decided to try some new ink. I have to say, this is some of the best ink I've ever used. It absolutely glides with a nice G nib or crowquill. The ink dries fairly quickly, and the blacks are bold. I also love the fact that this ink is versatile enough to be smooth with a nib AND a brush, without containing any shellac that could damage my precious [read: costly] sable brushes. I think that his may be a keeper, at least for now. ## Frequently Bought Together - Kuretake Zig Cartoonist Highly Opaque Pen Ink, Black - Kuretake Zig Special Black Ink 60ml, for dip Pen, Brush, Drawing, Calligraphy, Illustration, Lettering, for Professional, Artists, Manga, Made in Japan - Tachikawa Comic Pen Nib Holder, Model 40 (T-40) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.hr/products/1904855-black-ink](https://www.desertcart.hr/products/1904855-black-ink) --- *Product available on Desertcart Croatia* *Store origin: HR* *Last updated: 2026-06-03*
