Small update on the colour.....

Now I've been playing with this idea in my head for a while but would commit until we'd tried it out.

We mixed a small amount of Jewel Violet L4 in solvent based paint & painted 1 of the wing mirror covers, not a perfect job but to see how it looked.



As you can see there's a nice pearl purple in this when in good light but wasn't impressed when it was in shade it looked like a brown/dark magenta.

So we mixed some more, this time using water based & removed some of the red oxide from the mix & we got this!



Again not a perfect Job but it give us a good idea.

I'm 99% sure this will be the colour.

Any thoughts!? Good or bad I can take it !!
