thanks for kind words mate,there doesnt seam to tons of images of these shells apart from drawn colour plates that i dont feel are very accurate colour wise.
I tend to look for examples that are in exsisting collections and try to produce something thats as accurate as i can get it and compares with the others.
Your never going to please everyone,but i dont believe it to be a science.
So many enviromental factors affect colour,pigment and the surface its painted on as discussed in this thread earlier.
Enjoy your hobby mate and all the best.

Does anyone know what timeframe these Bromoacetone containers were from?
I understood that they were Pre 1925, but recently a reliable source says they're from Post 1925

Were you attaching a photo Pete, or referring to something already posted?

I was referring to the ceramic bottles in a earlier post, but im doing this from an I Pad and things aren't working as they should.
