Devon Green is a medium avocado green.

In large swabs on Tomoe River paper there is some pretty shading but no sheen.

Longer writing:

I used a Pelikan M605 Green White with a medium nib on a Taroko Odyssey notebook. The ink had a slightly dry flow. I really like this pen/ink combo!

Overall, this is a great ink. It’s just a little dry, but it performs really well in a wet Pelikan nib.
