Hey, you can always get it darker while it's mounted. Using bitumen paste.

It seems to be gradually getting darker over time by itself, maybe the bitumen is a good idea tho

I got a blank dial from Ross, painted it black, then a thin mist of brown on top before luming, I wanted the lume rough so the for first coat I used a very liquid lume so it bled over the edges, then thinkened up the mix for the top layers,
The look of this gen dial is the kind of rough lume I was aiming for Image
