I own Snorkel Firesta Red and Vermilion BUT to me these 2 pens look identical and I want to know if I actualy have 2 Vermilions or I am just colour blind.
The Fiesta Red I bought as a boxed set so I also have its Pencil.
Full Version: What is the difference between the Vermilion and Firesta red colours on the Snorkels ?

Take 'em to good light. The Verm is richer, bit more orange red (i see it as Fire Engine Red). Fiesta is more desaturated. Bit more pink, desaturated.
Vermilion is a non-WD color, found i guess as Admiral and Saratoga (plastic caps) and Sovereign (nonWD metal cap). I'd imagine a Special (less pricey white nib) mite be out there but i'm not sure. Fiesta is a WD color found nearly always with white metal cap (clipper or Sentinel depending on nib). The Valient/Statesman in my pic in the other thread (WD plastic cap) has been deemed "exceedingly scare" by a few of the guys who play with these regularly. So, i'm glad i've got one
