I guess I need to do up something in Levenger Pomegranate... It is to the red side, but depending on nib, and paper it does sometimes look like a reddish brown.

I agree. I also need to add the Dromgoole's inks.

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

Great color! I love inks that are in-between colors --almost one/almost another. Fun!

Very nib/paper dependent. Sometimes almost brown, other times pretty red. Red Cashmere @ 8% does the same type of thing too, but more red.

R&K Alt-goldgrün

Undefinable colour. Brown? Green? Yellow?

Sailor Pen & Message Cigar

I LOVE THIS. It writes as green black and dries to a yellowish greenish brown with red sheen.

I do like the Alt Goldgrün, but generally green-browns are not my favorite (for example, Cigar). Nostalgia looks like a nice sepia, doesn't it?

Cigar looks very nice. I actually was looking at reviews earlier this week and did not like it then. Nostalgia definitely looks like a sepia - Rubinato.

That Cigar really looks cool on Tomoe River paper - there it looks green.
