Colorverse String and Brane are the pair of inks from Season 3 "Multiverse" series of inks that I, personally, thought was the most interesting pairing. A nice golden brown and a soft olive green.

637 Bottles and 33.47 litres of Ink

The title is a bit untrue because as of these photos, 619 bottles of ink were on the shelf (well, one I forgot was on my desk) but I have 18 bottles of ink that are on the way as well making for a total of 637 bottles (593 if you discount the 44 duplicated). That's around 33.47 litres (8.84 gallons) of ink. I have an additional 99 samples and swatches of 165 inks that I have neither bottles nor samples of. In total I have 858 swatches of unique inks.
