I do think your custom paints are closest to the pictures of the stunts I've seen (Obviously comparing photographs has its own set of problems), but man there really is something special about that Tamiya SilverI spent most of the day prepping my master saber for mold making. It is incredibly tedious packing clay into every tiny gap that isn’t represented in detail on the production stunt sabers. However now the new cylindrical cut mold is in the pressure pot curing. Should be done in ~5 hours.
In the meantime I finished painting the latest casting. This is the first one that is fully painted with the custom spray paints I ordered. I haven’t had a chance to get the recommended dark red Rustoleum, but I did I take the advice of Saberz and mixed in some darker Tamiya reds.
For all these pictures from left to right or closest to farthest: custom sprays, Tamiya, Duplicolor:
