Those are nice, so that color is right out of the bottle? no tweaking other than flake? it usually takes a lot of work to get that color.

it would prolly look pretty good in it. i plan on doing a version of road kill with it since it looks like it can be close

I know green does well in this color....I have this color and have used the green hi lite in it with real nice results. I've made it using gold glitter and green hi lites and it's something. The next batch I'm doing gold hi lite. I just think it can make the color do things green can't.

Orange 040 looks and works great in that color.
