Can anyone help?

So today i got the Testors gloss black enamel. And figured out that I don't have a steady hand!! The hobby shop didn't have the paint for the frown/ears. So i bought Testors " 1788 Euro Gray FS36081" Does it look about right???? It looks like this: Here's the helmets:

No way!! Thats awesome!!!!!!!!!! I bet it was expensive!

It was set-up. I don't like football too much. lol

Thanks man. I appreciate it a lot!

Thanks everybody for the encouragement! Can someone please post the correct color paints for the frown , ears and vocoder? I know they are around here somewhere...just too lazy to find them. THANKS

Nice!! Take some photos if you can!

No worries man. This is fun regardless of who the maker is.

They are shaped differently. I believe VT is an AP recast. Here is a comparison: Left: CAP, Right: VT

I guess if I was in his show, my armor and helmet would "screen accurate"

UPDATE: DECALS ARE AL ON! Paint dried, decals applied. I'm satisfied! I wanted to make this one look extra stunt...i made things not match up perfectly. Like the tube stipes, back traps, etc. Next step is to paint the ears, vocoder, and the frown.

I know the guy. Not a scam. Not fibreglass.

Wow look how close this got!!!!! The asteroid "2007 TU24" just passes us at 10:33 US pacific time!!!! You can see it! WOW! Check out this diagram! Earth is covered up by TU24!

that the one with the us gov't secrets?

I guess there is a big one passing us right now [Jan 28-29] And may go hit Mars.

UPDATE! I got the other Primed sanded and painted! Here are some more progress pictures: PRIMED: PAINTED: Also kinda off this topic I have a TD Sandtrooper Backpack i made out of random bins & cups. Its held together by zipties. There is no straping system for it as of now...I need to get rid of it. Can you take it off my hands? please PM me if interested. Just give me an offer.. BACK ON TOPIC! ----As soon as the helmet is done drying, I plan on applying the decals! Then painting the frown, etc..

Got my decals in today from trooperdecals.com . They look great! ANH VT Before decals: ANH VT After decals: I cant wait for it to stop raining so I can primer and paint this one! Chris did an AMAZING job with this helmet! Thanks man!

By the way, those Hovi's are from Stomper! THANKS MAN! THEY LOOK GREAT!!!!!

yes. and i have.

They won't be too hard to remove.. Luckily I made sure there was small gaps in between them. THANKS!

Almost ready to paint the other one next!

Well here it goes! I'm doing two helmets at once! The one with the Hovi's and tighter pull is from a good friend CAP, or "weiBes" on FISD. The second one is a VT or "Vacuum_This". Although its a soft pull, its still very nice. I ordered decals through Trooperdecals.com and they just need to arrive. Here we go with the pictures! Left: CAP "weiBes", and Right: VT Primed About to be painted! I wanted to test out the glossy paint on something first before I painted the helmet... Here is the primer and Paint I used.. They work well together! GOT ONE of the Helmets Painted! Its very Shiny!

I know!!!!!!!!! Its way shinier (?) than my ABS FX bucket . I'm following the TE2 Stunt Buildup as well as yours (Smitty).

Thats what I'm using on both of my new ANH helmets. One is done drying and looks soooo Shiny!!!!!!
