Raw Umber

[Ron Tamburrini]

HI Guys
What has happened to the oil paint Raw Umber.
My old tube of the stuff some twenty years or so is a deep brown gritty grainy mix which I just love
but is almost empty now .
So an new tube of old holland purchased turns out to be a slick facsimile of the real stuff about three shades lighter and just fekin horrible ,I have already binned a tube of WN for the same reason .

Bet you wish you had bought two all those years ago! Wasnt this the same paint that Brian had trouble with? Will have a look, see what I have.

Will swap you a tube of Raw Umber for a Les Paul, if the Raw Umber cant be beaten!
Failing that you can have it if I have a spare.

Are you insane !! a tube of the old stuff is worth ten Les Paul's, now if it was a Srat that's a different matter
