Especially Nice Ink Matches?

Does anyone have any ink matches they're especially proud of?

 

I got my boyfriend a Pilot Vanishing Point Copper Red for his birthday, which came today. I had originally suggested matching it with Diamine Ancient Copper when he had picked out the pen, but I was thinking it was more of a conceptual match than a color match. Well, he went with it, and it turned out quite nicely.

I'm also a fan of Pilot Iroshizuku Murasaki Shikibu in my purple Pilot Decimo Vanishing Point.

One of my favorite combinations isn't a match. My True Writer Silver Anniversary and Diamine Sherwood Green. Of course, KWZI IG Turquoise is also a nice combo with this pen.

One of my nice ink matches is filling my green ST Dupont Montparnesse pen with Montblanc Irish Green ink.

Another one of my nice ink matches is filling my vintage red mottled hard rubber Stylomine 303 pen with Diamine Terracotta ink which is an ideal reddish brownish match with the Stylomine red mottled hard rubber pen body, giving an added vintage feeling when writing with the pen.

One more nice ink match I like to mention here is filling my Classic Flame Red pen with Montblanc Alfred Hitchcock ink. It is like a near perfect match. I only have one and a half bottle of Alfred Hitchcock ink left in my stockpile. How sad it is that the Montblanc marketing wizzards always would stop the production of beautifully inks that are selling like hot cakes. What is the point, Montblanc?

The dark purple Pelikano P67 is a perfect match for Lamy Dark Lilac.

The match I'm most pleased with, however, is my Parker Frontier Metallic Grey with Cacao du Bresil.

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