By studying pictures of the armour that was used in the movies.

Half the width of your cover strips.

Very nice!

I think you mean perspex. It's a brand name for plexiglass. It is acrylic plastic. Nice job on the helmet btw. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk

The problem is that there is no function in the forum to create what you ask. But if you can send the plans to me, and which thread to upload them, I can do it to your post. I have no upload quota.

Well to start with it doesn't match the tube stripes any better and you'll be repeating 10 years of mistakes. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk

If you like things to be easy and not kill you as quickly, yes. But get breathing protection anyway. Even water based acrylics aren't that good for you when you get them into your lungs.

Those are thinned out acrylic. A lot more expensive than DIY with non-airbrush ready (from the same brand). But they are handy. What's good to keep in mind is that model paints are high-pigment. Which makes them more expensive than your $1/gallon (insert random price) acrylics. It is what allows you to get vibrant colour even when thinned out.

Well, mineral spirits are basically what you have to use with enamel paints. Windex works for acrylics, but the brand-name cleaning fluid works even better.

I have a Master G44 kit with compressor and paints and stuff like that. It's an Iwata clone. It works well, but I think the chroming could be a bit better as it's flaked off a little (not on any important parts yet though). And like Steve says, airbrushes are extremely versatile, but if you are not ready to commit some time to learn how to get the right paint consistency (not that hard) and to clean it like a mad man (pain in the butt) after every use, you might want to look for something easier. On the other hand, if you can live with the cleaning, you'll be happy you got it. I sure am, and I'm by no means an artist. I just tinker with stuff that occasionally need painting. If you do decide to get one, make sure you have proper cleaning supplies before you even think about using it, and consider getting some needle-lube to smooth out the action of all parts. Also practice taking it apart and putting it back together, as you will need to do this when cleaning it.

Looking real nice

You've earned it.

Looking good Pete!

It might on first glance seem a little silly to ask that little bit to be removed, but I do agree with Steve. Primarily because it is such a simple change. It will literally take 5 minutes, but does make a decent amount of change to warrant it. Easy peasy, Pete.
