Bob Knee's union blue

[beczy]

Hello

I'm painting an ACW union soldier (1/16 bust). The late Bob Knee had some oil mix for the civil war uniforms (the "Bluegrey" article), a few years ago I have used his recipe for the union blue and it was very good... Unfortunatelly I cannot find my notes and the old AMSS link doesn't work...
I hope someone can share this mix (or the whole article), many thanks.

Thanks for posting that because I had lost track of it. Bob was very meticulous in his paint formulars. I just picked up a Winsor Blue in W&N acrylics for this very reason.

Hi Richie

Unfortunately you can't have one thread in two different forums. It can only be in one forum
