[QUOTE="micke, post: 83191, member: 83"] Thank you for your warm welcome, Alex! Yes, i used Gouache colors. A waterbased color that dries very quickly. I used it as i had a set lying around and were on a extreme budget and could'nt afford experimenting too much. The good thing is that it dries very very quickly, the bad thing is that it turns darker once it dries and even darker when you apply the clearcoat. This was some time before Lee posted his list and nobody knew what colors that was used on the original. I guess it worked out pretty good, but i really would recommend Lee's colors and paint if you wanna do it right! When i look at the helmet now i see it's too dark, but the weathering still works pretty good. You can post them in the old helmet post if you want: [URL="http://www.thedentedhelmet.com/showthread.php?p=65507#post65507"]http://www.thedentedhelmet.com/showthread.php?p=65507#post65507[/URL] All the pics was lost when my website disapeared.
