Details on the helmet

[Firebat[501st]]

Hello everyone. In my prior post I mentioned I just got the helmet. Should the elevator bolt covers remain great or pain them black. Also the aerator should be a c0ontrating black tot he helm correct? Like maybe a flat black or something?

make all of your details flat black and you can't go wrong.

All the details on the lid should be a contrasting black to the main helm.

 

For preference, I like to have the main bucket and armour painted in a Satin Black paint, and then all the detailing areas such as the snout and bolts in gloss black.

 

Obviously if you go for gloss black for the main armour/lid, then you'll want a Satin or Flat black for the other parts.

 

 

Mike at TrooperBay does a real neat set of Storm Commando decals, you have to ask him specially for them, but they are satin, with gloss details on them. Really good looking on the lid.
