And now a mixture that really works for me: STORMY HEATHER (sung to the tune of "Stormy Weather"). Similar in shade to J. Herbin's Poussière de Lune, but a touch brighter and with golden sparkles (!!!). I've loaded up a TWSBI, and it's a winner!

WOW, that looks great!

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

Create a Ghostly Avatar and I'll send you a letter. Check out some Ink comparisons: The Great PPS Comparison 

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

Why oh why did I even look at this thread!

 

The R&K Scabiosa and Akkerman Voorhout are amazing! Like I need more ink!

Grape and I had a fight - grape won. So I don't play with grape anymore.

Grape got the better of two of my fountain pens, but I now use it with dip pens. A glass nib makes the green sheen very apparent, and a round-hand metal nib reveals the shading nicely.

DCRoe05 found it at Harry Potter World - I'm sure we don't want to know how much he paid.
