Knight

Torso decal courtesy of Roaglaan.

The shield and the helmet were painted using enamel modelling paint. I used masking tape to achieve the shield pattern.

This was an interesting experiment.

Enjoy, Castler's :)

Karrde,

Very awesome. The colour combination you have selected is excellent! Well done! The custom and official armour and weapons mix works well too.

Nicely done Karrde, I like to see how people use my designs and I love the color combo.

Awesome job. I like the simplicity of the look while also making a somewhat difficult thing to do look easy. That helm looks spot on for being painted.

I agree. This is an awesome custom job. What brand of paint did you use? I know Krylon spray paint is exactly like TLG's color, but I did not know of a matching enamel. (at least in silver, I mean)

Thanks, and to answer your question it was revell paint, although I'm not sure whether it is an exact match.
