Recommend a Dark Blue-Green Ink!

Iroshizuku Tsuki Yo

 

 

Ditto

 

Ditto me!

 

+10 on Tsuki yo

+1 on Noodler's Air-Corp Blue Black

[jgrasty]

I have Tsuki-Yo, in fact have it in two pens now, and I don't see any green in it. Fantastic color, but no green. :hmm1:

 

Noodler's Legal Lapis is what you want.

+1 for iroshizuku tsuki yo from me

Levenger True Teal

 

oh. I forgot about squeteague. It's gorgeous.

I'll add a couple not mentioned yet: PR Naples Blue (more blue) and Blue Suede (more green). I find them well behaved, but on the slower side of drying - not bad though.

[ThirdeYe]

Parker Quink Blue-black. Comes out dark blue, and after it dries, it'll start to shift towards teal as time passes.

[KrazyIvan]

A vote for Diamine Asa Blue here but Private Reserve Tropical Blue, Private Reserve Naples Blue and Noodler's Midway Blue are all also on my list of greenish blues.

[Geoff V]

First choice is Noodler's Air-Corp Blue Black as it has not only the color but also wonderful water resistance and tends to a very crisp line.

 

Second choice (and only second because of the water-resistance issue) is Private Reserve Ebony Blue.

 

Don't let the names fool you. These are both (to my eye) dark blue-green inks (and rather heavy on the green, at that).

+1 for ACBB! It sounds much more like what you are looking for than the Tsuki-yo. Check the reviews and see what you think!

[Fuellerfimmel]

Try De Atramentis "Kräuter der Provence". It's a lovely dark blue-green or green-blue with a slight scent of Rosemary. It's from e german ink-maker.

I would also recommend PR Ebony Blue and Diamine Teal. Both are dark blue-greens and behave very well in my pens.

Noodler's Navy is a nice blue/teal color, not at all what I expected from it's name, but it is rapidly becoming one of my favorites. I have had no problems with feathering, but it can be a little light in fine or dryish nib.

Hey HammerHill! My poor friend, are you dizzy enough by now? :ltcapd:

If you need "visual aid", go to Goulet Pens website and check the color palette they have for pretty much all the brands (and colors) we have mentioned. It's pretty accurate and you can even ask for samples to help you decide. No affiliation BTW, just a happy customer.

Take care

Ha! Yes, what a deluge of ink recommendations! Some people seem to be bothered by a little green in their blue (Or a little blue in their green as the case may be), but I'm glad to see that others share my love for those lovely teal/pine/ocean hues.

Iroshizuku tsuki-yo is blue with some green.

Iroshizuku syou-ro is green with some blue.

 

Sailor yama-dori is, for me, about 50/50 green/blue with some nice reddish sheen where the ink pools. A very interesting and lively colour.

[Horseknitter]

My picks are Sequeteague, Syo-ro and Yama Dori. One or more is always at work for me

 

Love T-y but I see no green in it. YMMV

Yes, I am one of those. I don't know why my tastes are always leaned toward blues and blue greens. Other colors just don't capture my attention so much. As the old Latin proverb goes: "gustibus et coloribus non est disputandur" (There mustn't be disputes on tastes and colors, or something like that).

[gregamckinney]

Noodler's Squeteague is a great color that fits your description.

My experience is that it takes FOREVER to dry, though.
