    green argon pic?

    anyone have a pic of an underquilt made of green argon? I've seen samples of the color but not on a quilt. Looking to order a Phoenix and I think green is the winner. Thank ya.

    I will have pics of red and brown soon.

    At least I think that's what I ordered. It's been so long, I might be misremembering. Lol

    I have a Burrow top quilt from Hammock Gear in green argon.

    This color is darker than a cucumber -- a very dark (forest) green, and similar to the darkest parts of the green "Hammock Forums" logo at the top of each page here.

    A nice color, but nothing like the pic in another thread here of this color -- perhaps that photo was way over-exposed, but in any case it was much too light and vibrant.

    I went ahead and ordered the green. Can't go wrong with that color.

    I would still like to see those pics if you guys want to share them.

    Thanks

    Here is an incubator with the green although I think it shows up a little lighter in the picture.

    The green in Dutch's post (#7 above) appears much lighter than the green Burrow I got from HG in December 2013 during the Black Friday sale. These colors are so dissimilar that the photo above is misleading.

    Again, the green TQ I have is similar to the color of a dark green cucumber. Haven't tried to take a pic, but I'm assuming the camera's flash alters how this color appears.

    Edit: This color appears somewhat closer to what I see on Dutch's samples page photo (esp. the darker piece, below). Anyone concerned about color shades might best spend $1 on small samples of the four available colors so you'll know what you're getting. I haven't seen an accurate photo of the Argon green yet.

    Found this pic on the internet. Not my quilt. Maybe this is a good one:



    Edit: I did get the sample from Dutch. It does appear a little darker than the above pic. But the sample is very small. I was still curious to see it the color on a full quilt in real conditions.

    Not a big deal. I can wait and just be pleasantly surprised I guess.
