    I finally ordered and received the Lamy Neon Lime ink cartridges, because the bottle was sold out. I am disappointed; it doesn't seem to show up at all because it's so pale. On a happier note, I love the Neon Lime Safari. The bright color is so cheerful!

    The Pelikan Turquoise looks a bit darker and bluer to me in person. That is to say, it's not a very good rendition of "turquoise", not enough green, but I don't want a true turquoise. I like this ink better!

    Sorta kinda maybe. I've never heard anybody call it "MB Navy" before, i.e. leaving off the JFK or "John F. Kennedy".

    A pen pal just sent me a sample of Akkerman's "Chinatown Red", a bright, medium-saturated red toward the orange side. Eye catching in a TWSBI 1.5 nib!

    Vis-a-vis Chinatown Red, if it's convenient to get the Akkerman... and the bottles are certainly cool enough to merit getting it... but if you just want the ink...

    I think I've read that Diamine actually makes all the Akkerman inks, and you can get most of the colors in Diamine bottles for much less, but I still would buy a bottle of Akkerman just to have the bottle.

    Thanks, it does look like Diamine Strawberry is a twin for Chinatown.

    I'm a big fan of Standardgraph inks. Did you buy from Seitz-Kreuznach? They have always given great service and I highly recommend them.
