I had the chance to finally paint up my tube stripes. I was never happy of the humbrol 14, or the french blue colors suggested. So I tried to match the LFL archives helmet. I used the #28012 Chrysler Engine Blue. To me it looks more naturally looking and it also matches the Luke's hero helmet color. One thing that it does not match is that the tubes are flat not glossy. So I sanded them down a bit to give it a more dull look to it.
One thing to consider is that the LFL lights seem cold and mine are warmer.
