    One of those is going in a promising direction, but it's not a Pure Pens ink. As to Diamine, it's up to you whether you want to take these leaps of deduction. I'm saying nuttin'.

    P.S.: Greetings to Erik Z.
    Howdy, Jens.

    Ah, Erik Zabel, there was a sprinter. Although doubt he could have squeezed through the space Caleb Ewan somehow found yesterday; what a finish!

    As to Moss Green, I think that's not a bad choice for colour match, and it's going in a good direction for other reasons, but it's not it.

    I'm afraid of practically everything, but not of Diamine Emerald. An ink where Diamine, once again, ignored all usual colour naming protocol and thus I am moved to observe it trends too yellow.

    Nah, that'd be far too obvious a connection.

    I will take pity, and remove both Diamine and GvFC from the field of play.

    No and no. Neither brand.

    Haven't checked, but I'm guessing that's too blue. Pelikan greens usually trend blue, so you may dismiss Pelikan too.

    Brand eliminations apply to both remaining unguessed inks. Otherwise, I don't know about you, but I'm going to get hopelessly confused.

    Don't know that one at all. So no.

    Lamy is hopelessly wide of the colour mark, but MB Irish is closer. Both are geographically close.

    You evidently have us stumped, Yazeh. It appears to be a dark green? Or am I all adrift and it's a black that lacks conviction.
