Slightly bright red...

Yeah, I made a right pigs ear of the red. I had a lovely brick red at first but it went brown under the varnish :'(
This was my third go, the photo lights make it look a little bit brighter than real life but it wasn't the red I was trying for.

Cheers lads 8)

None. They were mostly all killed at Goliad along with Col Fannin.

Post by: FifteensAway on 19 September 2013, 06:11:47 AM: All well and good but what can we do to get Mexico to take Texas back!? The only good thing to come out of Texas in years is some of the women. Otherwise give it back, puh-lease. We Northern California's will be happy to separate from the south to keep the number of stars on the flag at fifty. (there really is a movement - maybe only partly in jest - for parts of southern Oregon and northern California to merge as a new state).
