I have seen the list in the past but I cannot find it. I don't have an airbrush kit, or the money to buy one but I remember seeing a link before with a consolidated list for rattle can paints to be used for an ESB build. Can anyone assist me with this?

Yes exactly that thank you! I am excited to get started, but this particular paint job scares me. Only thing to do is give it a shot. I am working with a Buckrogers helmet from the 501st forums, and RKD armor.

sebree. Start with the armor. It is easier to tackle than the helmet. It will be good practice and prepare you for the more challenging helmet. You will also learn from mistakes that are easier to fix on the armor.

Thank you I don't have all of my armor yet, currently buying it piece by piece because of my low budget to work with. But I will start playing with the armor first.

Theres no stencils for the JP....Ponte made a pretty good tutiorial on how to make your own though do a little search on his threads....youll see how to use tracing paper and your monitor to make some.

Yes I have been told transfer paper is a good tool to tracing out your battle damage for the helmet as well. I will look up Ponte's stuff, I think I saw a DVH one that was really good as well.

Tracing paper...you'll trace the image then use the carbon paper.
