I don't think the photo does a good enough job showing how much the CPC DG colors have improved on ASM's formula. Here's a mixed rack to try to highlight the difference on film. In person, it's leagues beyond.

A definite difference!

I can firmly say that oil DOES make a difference! I recommend for all thirsty CPCs, even after a decade of handling.

DG peach is the best CPC “orange”

DG peach is the best CPC “orange”

Agree! Tiger is a great close second but my goodness, DG Peach POPS

 

[Venturalvn]

I think this does a better job showing the difference between the old ASM DG Peach and the current CPC DG Peach, but still, nothing compares to how bad ass the CPC DG colors are in person.

And the cleaning and oiling factory continues. Figured I'd take the time to marry the add on to the main set properly.

Still one of my favorite sets!

Been grinding work for a couple weeks, but trying to find time to be human again. The cleaning, oiling, and organizing continues. Family shot of the main set minus backup/extras. The set is in a good place size wise, and is likely wrapped up.

This shot also makes me realize I need to find time to fix up my main table.
