Thanks!  I used rattlecans on all primary layers using colors from StormTrooperGuy’s pinned post - (gray primer, metallic silver, striping yellow [inverted can], and hunt club green). Gauntlets will be Claret Wine over a black undercoat. All these cans were purchased at Home Depot.


For detail/damage areas on the armor plates I used SAC Bomber Green (small modelers rattle can but dabbed on very dryly with a brush), and a basic yellow acrylic to outline smaller damage areas and specks too small for the masking fluid or tape to be effective.


Weathered everything with light black spray mist, pencil shavings, and acrylic washes of browns and blacks (I like using Citadel washes from Games Workshop). Then sealed with several coats of Testors Dull Coat (small can). To kill any remaining sheen, I may lightly rub a handful of dirt over each piece (not enough to make it filthy, but enough to really kill any light reflection that survived the dull coats).
