Army Men Ltd Run (511403)<br />An opaque army green.

An opaque army green.


"Army Men seems to be a better base colour for striking silver glass colours than it is for reduction ones. The reduction frit has yellowed the Army Men quite a bit, but the reaction / results are otherwise unremarkable aside from a few haloed frit bits. The decisive green halos that popped up around the TerraNova2 frit are much more interesting. The TerraNova2 frit struck nicely here, in the purple/blue ranges."

"Army Men falls somewhere on the bluer end of Olive, with a lot of grey in it. When I saw this color for the first time, I was reminded of the new version of CiM Commando. In fact, Army Men sits right between Commando and Olive in tonality. Olive has a bit more yellow." Read more at Kandice's blog.
