The “Eyes” Fett helmet colors

[volkerc]

eye color, eh?
my question is, what's with that 4th unidentified shin tool that is showing a red dot on top? never saw that picture (further up) before.

Hi,
looks like a Graflex fire Button to me.

Yep I think Humbrol 65 is very near

now what about the mandibles and the back panels :confused

[update] what about this? Extracolor #146 (may be with the added white)

 

[KaanE]

That's because Humbrol 65 is the same colour than the RLM 65

[Ronin677]

Ok then. What about the mandibles colour? Is it an orange or a red? and anyone got any ideas about the back?

 

[KaanE]

Maybe a Caboose Red With weathering of course.

The mandibles (and under cheeks) look to be the same as the ESB helmet. The spectrum red look in the pics is just from photography. So for those I'd go with Floquil D & H Caboose and Brunswick Green.

The back is tricky. I still need to pick it up, but the right ear and under color on the back looks like Polly Scale Intermediate Blue. The over color on the back is probably an RLM. Either Polly Scale RLM 80 or RLM 82.

The keyslots could be silver or gray. Till a better pic comes out, we'll just have to guess and use what we like best. My best guess is a light, warm gray.

Well using Humbrol no.65 this is what i have come up with The flash has washed the colour a little

OOH nice...
Beat me too it hey Jon...

Really like the looks of this so far bruv and I really like the way you have had the eyes 'removed' then the bunny ears painted!
So is this lid one of yours?

Now I need to do a PP1 helmet It looks spot on! Nice work

Yep one of mine. This is the version that i have always wanted. Not sure what to do about weathering of the dome (ie what colour)

 

[Mojo Fett]

Could it be that they used the same Reefer grey around the silver?

 

[Ronin677]

I think you could be right

 

[GCNgamer128]

Whoa Jon! That looks awesome!! How's you do the first pair of eyes?

 

[superjedi]

Nice, Jon! Looking great so far.
Ditto what Andy said: How'd you do the "covered up" Eyes on the front of the dome??

 

[Predatormv]

I think the key slots might be a yellow color actually...

You can do it with black pastel

I was thinking that, too. My take on that photo is that it kinda looks like the Earth color used on the ESB helmet's right ear.

 

[Jangos kid]
