I like colors that aren't ugly!

Sorry, but those pigments aren't black, because black is by definition the lack of light. They're all dark greens, blues, greys, and purples. The closest that comes to 'true black' is india ink.

We did a lab once last year in chem that took a bunch of markers and traced them across filter paper. Most of them were grey and green/purple/bruisey looking, but one of them was totally rainbow xD
