INK SWAB: 175/365 – Noodler’s Army Green
Don’t quote me on this, but I believe Army Green has seen several formula changes. First it was thought to be too yellow, and then not, and then back to the original formula? I could be thinking of something else. In my swab, I like this color – a good rich green.
Do you know the story here? Or maybe there is no story and I’m thinking of another green ink?

INK SWAB: 167/365 – Private Reserve Copper Burst
People like Private Reserve Copper Burst. I can definitely see why – the color is decent and there is a so much potential for shading. Unfortunately, when I wrote with this ink earlier this year, I found it to be super-duper crazy dry. Maybe I’ll try a fresh sample in a different pen one day and see if that makes a difference.
Tell me what you think of this ink? I’d love to hear all about your experiences with it.
