Shadow Trooper kit ordered - a few initial questions


Recommended Posts

I have ordered my kit from WTF and it should be here in June.  I am starting to watch build videos to start building my understanding and they are quite entertaining.  Quick question, what kind/color of silver paint should I use for the teeth on my helmet?

First of all you dont need to paint em, they can remain black but if you want to you can paint them in silver or gray.

Read the CRL for Shadowtrooper:

NO specific silver or gray is needed.

What @Halycon, said. We don't really specify brands for the paint but personally I've used both Testors and Humbrol paints. Both my black helmets were bought pre-assembled from Anovos but I'd imagine the paint color would be 11 Silver Metallic for Humbrol or Testors 1146TT, if I was a guessing person.

I know the paint codes for the regular stormtrooper, just not sure on the TX. ?
