Your filter value is so high (2.5) it tends to over-saturate the pigment,
although with it darker like it is the color isn't allowing light through well.
If you use this in the way Ken has shown then you will want to drop the filter
(and transmit) way down instead.  It's a strange phenomenon but the pigment
needs to both show up and not be over saturated, especially when used around a
light source or there's no shadow (such as what 'looks_like' will cause).
