dave321 Posted February 6, 2015 Posted February 6, 2015 beautiful colourwould go well with the purples magentas and other pastel colours
FlaMtnBkr Posted February 6, 2015 Posted February 6, 2015 The aqua is nice and a good aqua. I know cameras can be deceiving but that blue looked amazing in the last video. Have a formula you would share? Do you feel that is an accurate representation of the color? That's the closest to a cop light blue I've seen in a while.
Andres1511 Posted February 9, 2015 Posted February 9, 2015 Is it possible it is much more to the green side in real life ?I just tested one on the ground, was much more to green.
nt8 Posted February 10, 2015 Author Posted February 10, 2015 Is it possible it is much more to the green side in real life ?I just tested one on the ground, was much more to green.All colors has specific wavelenght, this is objective thing, but the peoples senses differently the colors, this is subjective. Which for me is light blue, for you is greenish blue. (or extrem thing, i have a friend, who almost is color-blind, he senses the colors barely. therefore i have made lot of titan, glitter&charcoal stasr in NYE shells, what he like )Other thing, the video made about 600m. other distance, other hue.This star for me is a bit greenish light blue.

braddsn Posted February 12, 2015 Posted February 12, 2015 Very nice man! I am gonna try it for sure! Your shells are perfect! I am curious but what size stars do you use in your 4" shells? They are "snappy" and "quick".. I like em. Also what prime?
Titanium Posted February 12, 2015 Posted February 12, 2015 A really nice Aqua, that's what I've searched for
FlaMtnBkr Posted February 12, 2015 Posted February 12, 2015 The blue at 0:28?Yep, that's the one. Looks great in the video.
nt8 Posted February 13, 2015 Author Posted February 13, 2015 Very nice man! I am gonna try it for sure! Your shells are perfect! I am curious but what size stars do you use in your 4" shells? They are "snappy" and "quick".. I like em. Also what prime? Thank you @braddsn The stars in my 4" shells have been 8-10mm if colored, and 10-14mm if tailed usually, except changing stars, these were 15-16mm. (4" shells was just the 3rd video, in 2nd video was 3")The one color stars was cutted, prime: 1st layer KP hot prime, 2nd layer lift grade meal. (the cutted star lit easy).The rolled stars prime: color/KP hot prime step layers - KP hot prime layer - KP hot prime/BP prime step layers - BP prime layer - and final, the "scrapy" BP layer, this makes successful ignition, even if the break is too hard.
nt8 Posted February 13, 2015 Author Posted February 13, 2015 Yep, that's the one. Looks great in the video.The blue seems maybe too good, maybe because this was away from the camera. And that you said: "cameras can be deceiving", i agree with you.But i think this is a good perchlorate blue. This is modified Pihko blue comp., KP/CuO/parlon/redgum: 60/15/15/10.
braddsn Posted February 16, 2015 Posted February 16, 2015 nt8 thanks for the great info! You were saying in the rolled stars prime, the final layer was a "scrapy" bp layer? What does that mean? Do you mean scratch mix?? Please explain this "scrapy" layer. Thanks!
