Art & Inspiration Satin washington blue images or photoshop?

Does anyone have a example of a satin washington blue truck? I like the color, but wondering how it would look flattened? This is possibly going on a 1940 truck.

That blue pickup looks teriffic. Like something you might see during the Truman administration.

Satin washington blue is a beautiful choice IMO; a traditional stock Ford color that's old-looking, but not trendy like flat black.

This is obviously not a pickup truck, but the fat fendered era is the same.

 

Does anybody know the proportions of black and blue DP primer to get Washington Blue?

 

That looks fantastic. Thank you so much.

Moose also took the time to body work the fenders!

 

Thanks for the photoshop effort. I take it the second car is real?

My missus likes the flattened colours too. While a long way off, this is some good inspiration.

I've found a lot of the flat blues at shows are baby blue or mid/denim. Harder to find a dark 'Washington' blue.

 

He also rechromed everything for me....
The state of the fenders is one of the reason I am leaning towards suede paint. I don't think they can be repaired at this point and every one has at least 1 if not 2 splits in it, and the are so rough that you could never buff out a clear coat for a shine. I am worried that the surface rust will become more than surface rust in the areas that are down to bare metal. I hope to someday replace the fenders, but for now I am just wanting to get it on the road.

Moose, if I could bother you one more time. The misses wonders what it would be like with more teal? Like this color.
