does this look close? ( ESB paintjob )

[WhiteWulf]

hey all, ive been practicing my ESB painting on my old sintra chestplate peices, do you think the green is the right shade or close to ESB? i also think that i overdid the damage slightly, and some parts have a slight shine to them, due to a change in the weather when i sprayed the green.

so please, Comments+Critique

The damage looks pretty decent, but I'm afraid your green is off quite a bit bud. Its way to bright & green. You need something way more drab. Keep workin on it though, you'll get it right!!

I say that the yellow looks pretty good, but try to find some darker organic colours, such as a forest or spruce green. I know paint finding is harder in the United Kindgom, do you have access to an airbrush of any sort?

 

[WhiteWulf]

oh yes i have an airbrush and a *deafening* compressor when payday rolls round i'll be paint shopping....

well i whipped out the airbrush and had a play about, i messed up the right chestplate, but its only test peices so it matters not. apart from that, any improvement on the colours of the other peices? i misted them with an olive drab colour and black, a few smudges here and there but its all practice..

Looks allot better with the black wash, altho maybe slightly over done it on the left breast? IMO?
Keep us posted on progress...

Just looked and for a spray can it's not bad acually? once weathered it should look better..
