This looks really stunning! What does it remind people of?

It really is very nice. I would say it reminds me of Diamine Kensington Blue which can shade somewhat in a wetter pen.

Kensington/Misty and a bit of Indigo. Perhaps.

Good-old Diamine. Come up trumps again!

I think stuff like that is cool. I wonder what it takes to get an ink producer (be it Noodler's, Diamine, whoever) to produce custom colors for a group?

mainly a "lot of work and patience" by someone willing to do the leg work of deciding on a color, negotiating prices and collecting funds:

While not quite the same, both the Las Vegas pen posse and the Big Apple Pen Club have organized group buys of (stock) Akkerman ink.

A group buy is one thing, but I meant a "custom" product. Not just "we'll buy a lot of the regular stuff as a group", more along the lines of "we'll buy a lot of a special thing you make only for us, as a group".

I did acknowledge that those group buys were not the same thing as a special order, but they have a few things in common. Perhaps you can inquire about the effort FPN went through to obtain the custom inks (Galileo Manuscript Brown, Dumas Tulipe Noire, and Van Gogh Starry Night Blue) from Noodler's Inks.

      I have the Sailor Naginata and some fancy blade nibs coming after 2022 by a number of new workshop from China.  With all my respect, IMHO, they are all (bleep) in doing chinese characters.  Go use a bush, or at least a bush pen.

      It is the reason why I'm so keen on the idea of a personal library — of pens, nibs, inks, paper products, etc. — and spent so much money, as well as time and effort, to “build” it for myself (because I can't simply remember everything, especially as I'm getting older fast) and my wife, so that we can “know”; and, instead of just disposing of what displeased us, or even just not good enough to be “given the time of day” against competition from >500 other pens and >500 other inks for our at

      Agreed.  And I think it’s good to be aware of this early on and think about at the point of buying rather than rationalizing a purchase..

      Alas, one cannot know “good” without some idea of “bad” against which to contrast; and, as one of my former bosses (back when I was in my twenties) used to say, “on the scale of good to bad…”, it's a spectrum, not a dichotomy. Whereas subjectively acceptable (or tolerable) and unacceptable may well be a dichotomy to someone, and finding whether the threshold or cusp between them lies takes experiencing many degrees of less-than-ideal, especially if the decision is somehow influenced by factors o

      I got my first real fountain pen on my 60th birthday and many hundreds of pens later I’ve often thought of what I should’ve known in the beginning. I have many pens, the majority of which have some objectionable feature. If they are too delicate, or can’t be posted, or they are too precious to face losing , still they are users, but only in very limited environments..  I have a big disliking for pens that have the cap jump into the air and fly off. I object to Pens that dry out, or leave blobs o
