This is the 12” done in oven - I am worried about the colour not being a nice black colour

Decided to put one of the smaller seasoned ovens on fire for a bit more baking and now looks to be OK - nice and black with no more tacky feel to them.
Just have to cook something now ….

I have a nine inch Billmans and the same thing happened to it when seasoning. Thought I had done something wrong and then back on the heat and now as black as anything.

This all reminds me, I am mid-way through seasoning a carbon steel paella pan I was given for Christmas.

I suppose I should shake off the post-New Year's haze and finish it
