ESB Paintjob

Mendibles are painted

man that looks great so far. I would try to get some clearer lines between the different colors as I see it where the black and the red on the mandibles meet.

I like the subtle darker weathering on the helmet!

I guess there should be some more grey on the mandibles ...

good job bro!

cheers,
Manuel

Thanks for your comment bro.I will try it.Keep it cool.

Looking pretty good so far! Question: what red are you using? Or I guess I should say what color list are you using? The red looks very bright, but that could be a trick of the camera.

p.s. Ankara-Turkey? Too cool! we really are quite the global community!

Yes its all about the flash.Normaly its not too bright.
Colors I used,
Mixture of red:Tamiya XF-7 + XF-64 + XF-1 (%2-2-1)
Green:Testors Olive Grun 1943
Grey:Vallejo German Grey
Killstipes: Humbrol 82 + 63 (1-1)

Great to see so many likewise dudes around the world.

Yes i do it like that...I dont like to use masks.Only using airbrush for larger areas( Base Colors) for weathering, only brushes.And dont forget the post shade!

That paint job looks awesome!

I may have missed it but whats a good way to paint on the kill stripes and what color were they in ROTJ. Thanks.

I used masking tape.Its best way to do it.And the color is humbrol 82.Thanks buddy!!!

Hey man, the helmet looks great!

Thanks Wolfi !

Helmet is almost finished.But i need a visor.I found some t-visors on ebay but i dont know which size is fits to this helmet?

The last update.Helmet is almost finished.But i still need a rangefinder and stalk.I cant find it.

You've done an incredible job on it. The weathering you've done is beautiful. Can't wait to see it completely finished.

Visor added.Last photos,

wow, i love it. weathering looks fantastic. i dont know if its the t visor, the mirror, or camera angle, but the mandibles look a bit wider than it should be, as if the t visor is pushing on it out. but other than that, looks very nice
oh and what helmet is it by the way?

Its about t-visor its a little big.Im not glued it yet, this is only a try.I need to cut it.
And i dont know what is this helmet.I was bought it from ebay.

Ohhh me want..

Hi guys, does anybody has the PMS colors for the ESB helmet?

Thanks

Enrique

Finished at last!

With BM Helmet,

Just amazing!
