Okay people, I've been looking more and more at ESB screen shots and realizing there is a red in the girth belt, more of a rust color. Well, I think I finally nailed it!!!
I found a primer called Ruddy Brown made by Krylon! It's pretty much and all purpose rattle can paint with a sweet spray nozel just right for misting!
So I used that and went over the belt giving it a healthy misting but still letting it show the base brown in my belt. I then just misted it with a flat black and then a small dose of a flat brown. Once it's all dry I'll spray a protective seal on it and be done with it. It looks fantastic and as close to right on as I can get for the ESB girth.
I just wasn't happy fully with only the brown orignal paint dye. The Ruddy Brown is a few shades darker and more brown then the generic Walmart Red Primer that I had thought about using...It's just right.
Check it out if you want and tell me what you think.
I'll post pics here once it's all done and dried up.
