BBS? :lol: :lol:  Yeah, I think that may be very catchy, and lets hope it doesn't reach epidemic proportions :lol:  I completely understand ya there ego, just when I think I got my armour looking good, I change my mind & re-do it!  I'm up to seven or eight repaints already.  I don't know what it is about that darn green, but just the slightest difference in lighting completely changes the way it looks.  Also, I thought I had my green really close the last time I painted, but after I sprayed it w/ lusterless overcoat, the color really changed.  I think the secret to getting fairly accurate, (outside of having the actuall real color & real armour as a guide,) is to pic a good ref. photo, & then do your painting in the same lighting conditions.  My shop has all flourescent lighting, so of course I get super frustrated when I take my armour outside & it looks totally wrong. :lol:  I never did get to see any af the exhibits, but I was wondering what kind of lights they had on the suit?  My aromour looks very dark and barely green under outside conditions, but indoors w/ bright lights turns it much lighter and very green.  Go crazy? Dont mind if I do! :lol:
