Just finished this one. Mix of Titanium and Magpul OD Green. I think I'll call it "Shrek" green. :cool:

Like or too blingy?

Not too shabby! Curious as to see what it looks like in sunlight. I'm considering doing a custom Cerakote mix for my next AR in Titanium and Foliage. What was your ratio by chance?
 
Thanks. It looks killer when wet. :cool: The lighting in the pictures do not do it justice for sure.

The ratio was about 60% OD Green and 40% Titanium. The Titanium lightened it up so the color is more like Foliage with a metallic sheen. If you use Foliage as a base it will be much lighter...or use less Titanium.

I just did a mixture of 40% Titanium, 40% Coyote Tan and 20% Black. It's came out as a sand colored tan but with a metallic sheen. I'll try to get some pics up.

Thanks for the info! I am going for more of a medium grey with a green hue than a green with a grey tint. Splitting hairs I know as it's a subtle thing, but I'm a little OCD on my colors. :)

I recently became of two other Cerakote colors that I may use in future builds: APA Sage (H-205Q) and ICON Grey (H-125Q). Both look like nice neutral and flat Earth tones.
