Shimmering Green !

[Cyber6]

Playing around with the new shimmering inks from Diamine. I never liked the Green included, so I went to make a much darker green (my type of green)

 

 

 

 

I immediately started playing with Magic Forest..and I got myself a nice dark green now. I could post a pic.... but, is almost midnight and the picture will be horrible under artificial lighting. I did scan it... but again, only a proper pic can do it justice.

 

 

If you don't mind the scan below... I promise to take pics in the sun tomorrow. (If we get sun.. it was cloudy today)

 

 

 

The last mix was the best....

The shimmer is very pronounced..

 

 

 

... and just for fun... (playing with the color).... my next recipe, will be to get something like this...

Darkening it makes it look much better I think

I'd love that murky ochre colour........... without the shimmer ;-)

 

I realise I'm an outlier but I just find it distracting and irritating to read more than a few words written with any shimmery, glittery inks. A whole page written in shimmery ink would be my idea of @$*#*#.

LOL... That's ok... I am actually only interested in the Gold and Bronze.. (I was more into metallic colors than shimmering gel pens when I was a kid.. )..

 

But I have a teenage artist..and she will enjoy them...

P.S. Migo.. doesn't that look like Rikyu-Cha??.. Or Rikyou-Cha is darker??

I can't wait to see all your murky mixes!

I like your darker greens too. The lightest ochre reminds me of crocodiles in slow-flowing streams stained with leaves.

I love your vivid imagination in describing that color. LOL!
