vintagestang Posted April 18, 2012 Posted April 18, 2012 I need to mix a dark green paint but all I have is gloss green. How do I mix the green paint with black to get the desired color? Do I just add black to the green thin and airbrush?
JollySipper Posted April 18, 2012 Posted April 18, 2012 Yellow mixed with black makes a dark green color, kind of a hunter green.......
vintagestang Posted April 18, 2012 Author Posted April 18, 2012 I need darker than hunter green. I don't have any yellow though.
Kit Basher Posted April 18, 2012 Posted April 18, 2012 Black and green will make dark green. Try small quantities in different ratios and see what you get.
Chief Joseph Posted April 18, 2012 Posted April 18, 2012 Patrick, if you add black use just a tiny amount because a little goes a long way! You can also darken your green by adding a little bit of red; but be careful because too much red will yield a ruddy brown color instead of a darker green.
