OK, my first ink evaluation....
Here is a sample of PR Avacado I tried out today in my Namiki VP Medium nib...
Overall, a very nice dark green with some grayish undertones, but no where near as gray as Noodler's Sequoia. Looks like the skin of a nice fresh avacado... MMMM might account for the name, HUH..
Laid down a nice wet line with the VP on just about all papers tried... feathered a bit on ink jet paper, but I expected that... I use cheap ink jet paper...
Still not exactly the color I am looking for, I might have try adding some Sherwood Green and mix some samples to get to the color of my pen ... This colored ink stuff is getting addictive...
I found no difference in color or toning between the medium and broad VP nibs... decided I like the medium better, so the broad is going to get regound to a stub one of these days...
I did notice that about an hour after writing the ink was definately darker than when first dried... not horribly darker, but enough to see.
