Default Seals Fur mix

Received the seven day pill box that was brought to my notice on this forum. I intend to use it to store my seals fur mixes that I have begun to experiment with. The first one shown is a mix of two parts Sunburst, one part Hot Orange and one part Phospher Yellow.
I have also started to mix in man made materials such as Lite-Brite.
The reason for this thread is to ask for seals fur mixes that other people have found particularly useful.Click the image to open in full size.

I just tend to experiment with mine depending on what Im looking for.
A claret and olive sf mix 50 : 50 is a nice blend
I also like mixing sf with a little bit of hare's ear of the same colour to just get a bit of a spikey blend.
Like I said try a bit of experimentation as there are so many combinations.

Black Claret - 70% Black; 30% Dark Claret. Very good for Browns.

Brick - One third Scarlet; One third Hot Orange and one third Light Claret. This is a great dry fly colour for Rainbows.
