What is the difference between camo black and obsidian black (other than cost)? It looks like obsidian is a bit darker but hard to tell in mechlab. Thanks!

I think Obsidian is the deepest black you can get in the game right now. Camo black is probably technically a dark grey.

I have not compared them side by side, but there might be differences in how they reflect in brighter light (like one might be more matte than another). It might not be just a difference of color.

Correct. I use a combination of obsidian black and Phranken black (more an anthracite grey, "almost" black, like tire rubber) on some mechs for "ghost bones" that only show up in a certain lighting, for example.

I have both colours.
Obsidian is black with a more shiny reflection to it, Camo black is a flat blackish grey.
