Hmmm, it's not far off, mate. Does look darker. Is that taken with a flash?
Looks close and yours is still wet as well remember
Maybe just the photo, but it does look a few shades darker than the heritage colour green. Was the heritage green the colour you were looking for?
Keep up the good work, always enjoy seeing what you have done.
Cheers
I think the colour choice is also swayed by the style of the finished vehicle, Std , pick up, CSW, off road biased, extreme comp motor.
If it is a std vehicle then I always think one of the traditional colours is a good way to go.

I did this, decided a colour, and decided to paint it in cellulose rather than base with 2k primer. Went to the shop, bought the paint (4litres I think), sprayed the bulkhead and hated it! Tried it over 4 different primers and it was all the same. I nearly went with it but glad I changed colour. Although I'm regretting using cellulose as the finish is rubbish and not very hard wearing. For what it's worth, I really like that green in the pic!
I had the same problem
i just could not make up my mind
is was going to be white then red then black
and its ended up green
starting thinking today, i wish i had done it the original color red
oh well
What ever you choose mate, i'm sure it will look mint
How much was it? I'll happily take it off your hands 'for future projects'
Haha! I meant that paint Aaron has. I really like that colour.
What yours is missing Paul, is galvanised cappings! I think they would suit that beige (nice colour btw) very well.
I like that beige colour actually... it's a little bit US-Army, but nice all the same.
Marine Blue is propper classy though - that get my vote (also because I don't want another self-build keswick to show up the flaws in mine!!!)

Liking the new color mate
very nice
Great colour chap! Pretty close to Atlantic green, but individual to yours. Perfect!
That does look nice. Looks almost like its been lifted straight from a brand new defender (except for the vents!). Re the other paint, I'll pm you. Is there anything you need for this build?
Wish I had room to spray, I've had to brush these axles... No room to swing a cat!
Don't happen to have a welder do you Aaron?
