Here's one of the pigment inks that Organics Studio recently released. This one is apparently entirely pigmented with Chlorophyll. Which is pretty neat actually. It's definitely waterproof, as the scan should show. Which is good, because the color's so light.

 

It dries a little darker than it seems going down. Actually, there's a bit more shading while writing, and the really light parts darken, and the darker parts lighten. It sort of equalizes. It doesn't look runny or thin after it dries, which again is good. Because some really light greens I've tried look like watered down highlighter.

 

Try as I might, I just can't see myself using this color. Too light and the hue isn't really my favorite (though pea green is very appropriate). That's very much a personal taste though.

This one would just be too pale for me - I need contrast. Good idea though.

This appears a bit lighter than what we've seen with our testing. Hmm. Have to revisit and maybe upload some scans as well! Thanks for the review, though! :)

Thanks for all of your reviews. You are helping me decide that next ink purchase or two or three.

The scan seems a little lower contrast than real life. It's definitely not transparent seeming or thin, like some inks. I find it easier to read than DeA Moss Green. But it is lower contrast than Chiku Rin, which is in the comparison. Could it be that I needed to shake it up more?

Ok. So I filled this up in my TWSBI again to give it another shot. I'm not sure why, but this time it wrote a little darker. I don't know if there was just some water in the feed or something else. It's not a huge difference, it's a light color. Here's a shot.

Hmmm.... I haven't inked this one up yet. Thanks for the review.

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

      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
