ROTJ Helmet Questions

Hey Guys!

I just have a few questions that I couldn't find from searching these boards before I start my ROTJ helmet paint up, if some of you guys don't mind :).

1. The helmet I will be painting is an Animefan Coldcast. On my previous ESB paint up(resin budget kit) I marked out the damages via the stencils and tapped with a dremel where the damage was. Is it the same method with applying damages to Coldcast? Any recommendations?

2. I can't seem to figure the colour of 'light green' spots on the cheeks, can anyone point me in the right direction for that and to double check I understand the humbrol colours correctly that I have labeled in this picture. (Picture is originally from RafalFett's stencils)

3. Lastly, in Jayvee's thread he specifies that all the colours he used were enamel. I plan on using humbrol enamels throughout, but I could only find Tamiya XF-17/ Model Masters RLM 70 in acrylic. Do you guys think there will be any issues airbrushing the acrylics over the enamels on the lower mandibles? If not, I have the colours in enamel for Terminal Fetters method.


Thanks for your guys time!

Hi Vithar,
Can't help you with the specific color questions, but as far as airbrushing goes, as long as your enamel is dry you
can lay acrylics down on top with no problems.
