Diamine Red Oak (Autumn Oak + Red Dragon)

Made a little something on a groggy English morning... Quite pleased :)

 

Autumn Oak + ~1/4 Red Dragon --> Red Oak.

I haven't really mixed any inks before, so this was a happy accident more than anything else. The result is a darkened Autumn Oak that is not so harsh to read for a long time, improved shading on Red Dragon with some orange flair, and damn great shading. Mixing two well behaved inks, the result seem to be okay -- no feathering or bleeding on Rhodia 80gsm paper.

 

(Unfortunately this isn't super calculated so I can't give you exact amounts I used... I literally went out on a whim and decided to do this).

Looks good. 'Autumn Oak' is a color that needs a little more substance; other variations would be fun to see as well.

 

ETA: I like your 'Autumn Dragon' a LOT.

Great job.

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