Noodler's Gruene Cactus. This is available in Eel (lubricating) and non-Eel versions. This is the non-Eel version. This sample is probably my favorite of the medium greens I have tried. It leans distinctly towards yellow and has a springtime feel.

Rohrer and Klingner Verdura - Another decent green. It is a fairly true medium green that leans a bit towards blue. On paper, it is similar to Noodler's Hunter Green, but the Noodler's inks are a little more saturated.

See, PPE and Pilot Mixable Green look the same!

I love the Pilot Mixable Green. I've never seen it before.

New CRV. On deck: Sailor Dandyism, Diamine Evergreen, Robert Oster Moss Green, de Atramentis Khakhi, and Montblanc Daniel Defoe:

A bit muted, but deep and highly legible green:

For those who love Sailor's CIGAR but have had trouble getting a hold of it, here is a good alternative: Robert Oster BRONZE. The name suggests something more brown, but it comes off as much more green:

 

[amberleadavis]

OOO nice! Does it sheen?

[HalloweenHJB]

Not that I can see. At least not in the crazy way that Cigar sheens!

[amberleadavis]

Good to know. Cigar is all about the sheen.

All my greens

Looks great.

Blackstone Daintree Green.

 

This is on Fabriano paper, I think from a Cross ATX with a F nib. The scan is a touch brighter than the actual sample on paper, at least on my screen.

 

This is a beautiful green ink.

Monteverde Green. This is Monteverde's official brand color, offered as an ink.

 

I've just filled the pen, so no firm experience with this ink so far, but for fans of dark greens, it's worth considering. On my monitor, the scan comes out a little brighter than in real life.

 

Clairefontaine paper.

Hmm, looks like it could be similar to Irish Green or KWZI Green #3.

 

Hey Smudge, fancy doing some CRVs of these Monteverde new inks with me?

Sure thing! Contact me via PM and we'll set something up.

Perhaps due to the nearness of St. Patrick's Day, a broke down and ordered a couple of green inks.

 

The Vert Moyen by L'Artisan Pastellier is a moderately pleasant medium green:

 

 

But I definitely prefer the R & K Smaragdgrün. This is a color I can use comfortably:

 

[amberleadavis]

That's funny, I preferred the yellow greens. Thank you for sharing!
