    pic request for colors

    going to get some work done by dwilson on my lmt and cerakote. they offer magpul green, olive drab, noveske bazooka green. I can't find anything with them matched up to see the differences. I have ODG on rigs but want to see the other two as I'm going to do tan furniture and want to see the look

    thanks if you have pics

    Pics really won’t give you a realistic idea at all.

    You can order free samples from ceracote

    I ordered a bunch years back and was stunned how much they differed from the picture online. We’ll worth ordering some swatches.

    pic request for colors

    Agreed. White balance and realistic lighting in photography is a bitch.

    Too few take the time to get it right.

    Then you have the calibration of your monitor etc…… Colors can be very different in person than what you see in pictures.

    Absolutely. I bought sone dark dirt colored camo krylon. It looks black most of the time, and purple in bright white indoor light. It does look like wet mud in daylight, but was hoping for more of a standard brown, which the cap looked like in the store.

    Maybe I have the first 'plum' AR

    One thing I will say about Magpul colored Cerakote colors is how varied their appearance can be depending on lighting brightness and whether the light is cool or warmer. I've had my Magpul OD Green rifle go from looking almost black to positively OD, for example.

    The sad thing is, I'm not able to help in this case. Its hard to imagine that I don't have pics of something, but I have zero Noveske B, and no Magpul green.
