@Tobi said in The Evolution of Iron Heart:

@Oaktavia amazing how similar the indigo and ib look at that stage! Early stage ib fades look very different for me!

Yup, eventually ib fades look pretty close to indigo/beige, it surprised me too when I first realized that is what happens.

@Oaktavia Your photography reminded me of a guy who was pretty active on the Forum about 10 years ago. His username was nizzel55 and I think he may have won an early fading contest. Had to screenshot this old post.
