What an interesting chromo on that Lemon Grass, Jan!

It's hard work to tell which is Old Harry when everybody's got boots on.

Yes, that was quit unexpected!

 

I like this green, it looks a little bit "powdery".

 

but...

also take a look at the chromo of Rohr and Klingner Alt-Grun... ;)

You're right; I'd missed that, probably because the Alt-grun doesn't appeal to me so I didn't dwell on it. The Lemon Grass, to my eye, is nicer. Funny how the chromos (and the dyes, I assume) can be so similar and yet the inks are so different.

hey you green-lovers, got a question for you.

I've got two preppy highlighters, a yellow one and a green one. The yellow one already ran out of ink, I refilled the cartridge with Diamine Yellow. Perfect for me.

Now the green is about to run dry. I just went through all these green examples. And on one hand got confirmation on my first idea reading post 35: J. Herbin vert pré. However, on post 121 this same vert pré looks far too unsaturated to draw attention as a highlighter. On the other hand, I'm afraid Diamine meadow might be too saturated and cover text/notes rather than highlighting them.

 

So: anyone who cares to share his experience with green ink for highlighter use? (I'd prefer to avoid the Pelikan highlighter inks, though I couldn't tell you why, maybe I just should pick that green. Any pics of that ink?)
