So true, and I'm so glad you mentioned it - I thought I was alone in this rabbit hole! I have had a lot of fun the last few weeks ordering paint pens off Amazon, testing colors on old posters that I need to throw away or pop boxes of OOB pops. Does this color show up against a dark poster? Does this color blend in too much to the pop? Does this color POP on top of the pop?? It's a spiral, I tell ya!
But I also got a great signature from Stephen Amell last weekend on an Arrow pop. Used a light green, and it shows up SO WELL against the pop. Really feeling like all my research and testing worked out! And then - lesson learned, William Shatner in a light blue so it doesn't blend into his Starfleet uniform. Well worth the additional checking to make sure those autographs stand out!
Have you seen the GITD paint pens? they look fkin amazing
