Hey L3, I thought so too, especially compared to (I think I've seen them referred to as the Hielman shots in ) the ROTJ Helmet gallery -- it looks to have more Wisconsin Central Maroon (which I did use on my gauntlets), but I think it's more to do with the lighting. Also, if you look at (for instance) this shot from the MoM exhibits: http://www.thedentedhelmet.com/gallery/showfull.php?photo=6419 the trim is a brighter red, whereas in some it seems the same shade as the gauntlets. All my helmet shots are outdoors, in the shade on mostly sunny days. See this super-interesting thread on ROTJ (and others) colors: http://www.thedentedhelmet.com/f23/painting-grant-mccune-helmet-gmh-39116. I plan to darken it down a bit more with charcoal dusting before applying the final seal, but I'm waiting on that until all the rubbing to get the remaining mask off is finished.
