Moss Green - Graf Von Faber-Castell

Recommended Posts

At the moment I had an opportunity to try three GvFC inks: Garnet Red, Hazelnut Brown and Moss Green. Garnet Red is boring and I don't like it at all. Hazelnut Brown and Moss Green on the other hand are amazing inks.

Very nice. But then,, I'm partially color blind. No joke. I insist I see all the colors -- just not when 'normal' people do!

That is an amazing green! Thanks very much for this post. Have to try and purchase a sample of this. Looks like it lays down to be very wet! :yikes:

Tricked throughout the centuries...

For centuries people had been tricked by kings & "religion-alism"

In the 20th century people got tricked by communism

Today people get tricked by (neo)capitalism :)

Just bought this ink.

 

Thought I'd do a review but a quick search gave me this, a much better review than I could do.

Good job :)

I love this ink. I did a comparison with Noodler's GI Green.

Fountain pens are my preferred COLOR DELIVERY SYSTEM (in part because crayons melt in Las Vegas).

Don't know where to start?  Look at the Inky Topics O'day.  Then, see inks sorted by color: Blue Purple Brown Red Green Dark Green Orange Black Pinks Yellows Blue-Blacks Grey/Gray UVInks Turquoise/Teal MURKY
