Interesting mixes. Especially juulz's -- the "hint of pink around the edge" (and the color in general) makes me think of Noodler's Miles Standish LE (from the Commonwealth Show 2 years ago).

I didn't do this one because I was on vacation. Had enough trouble keeping the pens all corralled in a tent as it was (and lost the M405 Stresemann for 2 days :yikes: (but fortunately it got turned into Lost and Found :notworthy1: before it got run over by some random person driving an overloaded vehicle that was also pulling an overloaded trailer...). I'm now trying to play catch up on laundry (5 yesterday, 3 so far today), and also on the 52 Weeks project in general....

I think it looks nice!

its an interesting color ill give it that. I for sure like it better than plain Rome burning.

another thing about the ink is it kept the waterproof purple aspect.

As soon as I get all my images transferred from hosting companies, I'll upload some pictures. I have a bunch of inks that I mixed. Whenever I didn't particularly like an ink, I added Sargasso Sea and then, I liked it.

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

How does it improve? Color and ... (flow, stability, etc.)?

 

I may have to experiment, as well!

Sadly no water resistance but a little Lexington Grey may make it into another version of this mix to help with that.

I went to a conference with four pens, four ink pots and 1 bottle of the new Sydney Harbor Blue concentrate. By the end of the conference, I had mixed all of the colors with SHB concentrate. The first ink to get dumped was one that was a dry writer. I couldn't take it and had to add in SHB by the first break.
