Mistral in Lapis Blue

[Chriscb]

Afternoon,

I search high and low for acrylics that catch the eye and match the pen. Honestly I don't go for garish colours (I wear dark glasses when I turn them on request).

This is a Mistral in Rhodium, steel Bock nib (F) and a Lapis Blue acrylic.

As ever critiques and comments please.

Thanks.

Like the pen its shape etc colour went too deep in the pic but Lapis is beautiful.

Thanks for the compliment. You raise an interesting point about colour rendition on screens. The acrylic was marketed as Lapis Blue, so perhaps rather than the colour being too deep perhaps the designation is off. The image is a good match to the actual pen when viewed side by side.
