Hello folks, Im on the hunt for blanks that are as close in colour to the green in a marines beret.

I've been asked if I can make a set of pens for an ex-marine who is retiring from his current job, I've had a good scout round the usual suspects, Vince, Dan, Phil and other sites but no joy from what I can see, anyone have any leads please??

Cheers

Freck

Not sure what colour green it may be exactly but I make these with this colour green.

Not sur if they are still around but Brody's green blanks are good someone may know.

See the one on the left in my blank draw, the one on the right is the one I cast.

The completed pen is one of Brody's blanks

This is whay Mr Google has just told me

29.4% red, 32.5% green and 12.5% blue

Not certain, but i guess the missing element is black, because that lot does not add up to 100
