sith_241 Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 If you cant find them locally you can order them from TK4510 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iconoclasta_88 Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 Just so you get the correct colors: Grey is Humbrol 5 or Testors 1138 Black is Humbrol 21 or Testors Satin Black Blue for tube stripes is Humbrol 14 Blue for backpack is Humbrol 47 Humbrol is sopposed to be the brand used during ANH production and is said the be the screen accurate one. A little more difficult to work with than testors, but it does looks awesome. Testors is great also anyway. Hope it helps. Saludos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SandyStormTrooper Posted June 22, 2011 Share Posted June 22, 2011 Im with sith, i feel that humbrol def brushes better than testors does. I guess it all comes down to personal preference. Sandman i have to say your signature rocks One of the best ive seen to date!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billhag Posted June 22, 2011 Share Posted June 22, 2011 I use a combination of both (Humbrol & Testors) because I find some are more manageable then others. Here's a guide/conversion table that I made up a good while back for TK helmets but as you know its the same for TD's, you just get to save on the paint for all those pesky stipes in the traps and the Ab detailing Hope it helps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
