Colorverse Colorvent 2024 Day 5 is "Rosette Nebula", a pleasant pinkish-red/Fuchsia shade.

It's probably the pinkest ink I have now, but it's not too far in that direction. It's a unique color that isn't like any other red I have.

Shades a bit more on some papers than others. Has a tiny bit of sheen in high concentrations, but can only really be seen under magnification.

Pen is a Pilot Kakuno Family Series Pink ("Girl") w/Fine nib.

Photo of a "Colorverse Colorspace Size C" swatch card, type 1 which is based on the James Webb space telescope. The ink on the card is pinkish-red. Upper left is text reading "#5 Rosette Nebula" written in an EF nib and then a stub nib. Below the text are two stars and a galaxy outlined in ink. Upper right is a large illustration of the James Webb telescope in negative space among swabbed ink. In the lower left is a small illustration of the Hubble space telescope in scribbled ink. In the middle lower left is a blob of ink with some visible lines where it dried darker. In the middle right is a blob of swirled ink drawn by a glass dip pen. Lower right is text "Colorvent 2024". Laying across the card is a fountain pen, a Pilot Kakuno Family "Girl" which is pink.
