    Wanting to move away from blacks is how I eventually came to the first of my three main inks, which is also from Diamine: Saddle Brown. I found that I still wanted something that wasn’t too attention grabbing and was still dark enough to provide good contrast on nearly anything, but at the same time it’s still far more interesting than the range of “permanent marker black” to “washed out black” that I was trying to enjoy before.

    I hope you find something that works for you!

      I’ve loaded Misty Blue in and its quite a nice blue. Need to find my other converters to try the others.

        Blue’s my favorite color. Can you post a pic of it in use?

          Some quick chicken scratches for you.

            I am digging the Misty Blue. It’s work friendly, but that slightly lighter blue black has more personality than a darker one that leans closer to black. It’s on my wishlist now!
