Humbrol paint question

[Snake]

I am trying to finish up the ab plate on my stormtrooper armor and from searching the RPF I have the found the correct colors but when I went to the Humbrol site it seems that they do not ship to the US :cry . Does any one have a recomendation of where I could find some Stateside?

Seek the wisdom of Guardian Matsuo. If you're looking for Brown Bess, he can hook you up with the appropriate color-mixing formula.

Here is one I found, I used to get it from Hometown Hobbies, but their website appears to be gone. :confused

I am looking for the Humbrol AD Grey and Midnight Blue for the buttons on the ab plate. Is "Brown Bess" to make the suit dirty? Prop-maker.
Thanks for the link Seth.

Just thought of one other thing after looking at the link. Satin, Gloss, or Matte finish? I want to be as accurate as possible so any suggestions would be appreciated.

Im a little slow today...answered my own question Humbrol AD Grey (5) and Humbrol Midnight Blue (15). The numbers indicate which one specificly.

Not too familiar with Humbrol outside of Brown Bess. This was the color used on the greenish shroud of the Pulse Rifle and a few other Colonial Marine items in the movie Aliens.

Thanks for the link, that site looks almost identical to the layout of hometown-hobbies. Maybe they changed names or were sold/bought. :thumbsup
