ESB Gaunlets Humbrol colors

[Fekali]

Hi,
i´ve ordered my ESB Gaunlets. And now i need some good advises for the right color specifically for weathering.
Some of you use Humbrol 78 for gaunlets. In my eyes a realy good choice.....

please help me to finish my first paintup.

thanks
Alex

ESB gaunts actually dont have alot of weathering except for the large grey area on the left gauntlet...which isnt always there depending the scene. I use floquil for the grey..dark lark grey. I also mist them with krylon black primer and rust floquill just a little. I have a build thread for my MOW gaunts where you can see it.

OK, the red is #60, black is #33, white is #34. There is also a grey similar to the floquil dark lark grey, its #32. Humbrol also has a rust color which is #113. Hope that helps bud!
