so im looking to paint my car like and olive drab green, but on a budget.

kinda looking for something like this, but obviously it wont be as bling, and most likely a flat finish.

so if someone could chop this color, or something rly close onto the following car thatd be great, i just wana see wat it would look like w/o gloss

yeah, i did this last spring. Its a noble idea, but hard to carry out. By thinning the paint down in order to spray it, it actually lightens the color and makes it look dumb. Heres a quick pic of my trial stage.

Just get a darker color than you want, and then thin it accordingly.

I’m liking the red more than the split pea green. 👋 Especially if you are going for a flat finish (ugh). If you are going to put some gloss and clear coat on there, then maybe it _might_ work, but it would not be easy to pull off.

Articzap (or someone with skillz), take the shine off the chop so we can see it the way he wants it. Flat.

Darker green is definitely better. And Honestly, if it’s going to look GOOD, you can’t skimp on the $$$$ (unless you havea super hook-up)

honestly if you arent going to pay the money for it to look as bling and shiney as the first pic then its going to look terrible.
