Another 48" TFA Stormtrooper

awesome!  I did not bother painting my sons, but have been considering it now.  My biggest fear is it will not match the Rubies adult helmet I have been using.  What helmet did you end up using?  And did you repaint that as well?

I bought the kids 2 piece rubies helmet from off Amazon. I screwed the sides together and used limousine window tint for the visor. I haven't painted it. To be honest it's not a million miles from the paint I've used. I had the armour professional sprayed, they used Fords Frozen White. I've bought one of KBs kids helmets, just waiting for it to arrive.

What were the primer and paint again?  I googled the above names and didnt find it.  Also, how is the paint holding up?  I used Rustoleum primer and white 2X and it's chipping off fairly easily.:(

Gotcha. The kids rubies is glossier than the adult version. I may just spray some gloss clear coat and attempt to color match the helmet itself someday.

I'm finding out tomorrow, the primer was like a greeny colour, a bit like the original stormtroopers.
