Optional painting: 14 original recipe roles and 19 distinct named ingredients. All store candidates and supplies start unchecked; unresolved paints remain visible references.
Original painting recipes, materials and builder choices
Construction and optional painting
This Boba Fett has a molded plastic cape, jetpack, blaster rifle, pistol, interchangeable hands and a display base. Fit the helmet and rangefinder carefully, and follow the under-gate trimming marks. The runners are PS with PE polycaps.
Choose the supplied marking stickers or matching water-slide decals. The fourteen recipes cover the helmet, suit, armor, backpack, cape and weapons. The helmet's dark red area uses Cocoa Brown 90% and Russet (Azuki) 10%. Keep the Blue addition in the body suit and the Green addition in the backpack and arm armor very small; neither has a printed percentage. Bandai recommends water-based paint.
Materials in the parts list: PS: A, B, C, D, E, F and SWB3 runners, including the molded cape; PE: PCF-6AC polycaps.
The original recommends water-based paint and gives named ingredients without numerical H/C product codes. The water-based AK 3GEN store products below are optional approximate candidates, not manufacturer-specified paints or physically verified matches.
Complete original painting recipes
14 printed roles use 19 distinct named ingredients. 12 roles contain mixtures; 0 use separate paint layers. Original proportions describe the source paints. Ratios for these substitute pigments are unvalidated starting points: test and adjust a small dried sample. Unquantified additions remain unquantified. Keep undercoats and topcoats separate and let each layer dry.

Named ingredients and optional store candidates
11 mapped purchase cards and 8 disabled ingredient references cover all 19 named ingredients. Mapped cards represent 11 unique paint variants. Source-role counts are not purchase quantities. Each selected variant is added once, even if chosen for more than one source ingredient.
- Neutral Gray. Approximate candidate: 3G Acrylic Neutral Grey AK11018. The descriptive Neutral Grey candidate supports a neutral-gray approximation. Its bottle may also serve generic Gray while both ingredient names remain separate. Family: AK 3rd Generation. Finish/effect: matte.
- Green. Approximate candidate: 3G Acrylic Deep Green AK11142. Deep Green supplies a generic opaque green approximation, separate from the Dark Green and special named green ingredients. Family: AK 3rd Generation. Finish/effect: matte.
- Cocoa Brown. No supported Cocoa Brown candidate is chosen; the original brown shade remains a reference.
- Russet (Azuki). No supported candidate is chosen for the named Russet (Azuki) shade.
- Gold. Approximate candidate: 3G Acrylic Gold AK11191. Gold is a named metallic water-based candidate. Exact source formulation and dried appearance are untested. Family: AK 3rd Generation. Finish/effect: metallic.
- Silver. Approximate candidate: 3G Acrylic Silver AK11209. Silver is a named metallic water-based candidate. Exact source formulation and dried appearance are untested. Family: AK 3rd Generation. Finish/effect: metallic.
- Aircraft Gray. No candidate is chosen because the original does not identify a specific aircraft-gray shade.
- Flat Black. Approximate candidate: 3G Acrylic Black AK11029. Black is a matte opaque 3GEN paint and preserves the explicitly flat black effect. Candidate pigment strength remains untested. Family: AK 3rd Generation. Finish/effect: matte.
- Blue. Approximate candidate: 3G Acrylic Deep Blue AK11182. Deep Blue supplies an opaque blue candidate, with untested depth and pigment strength. Family: AK 3rd Generation. Finish/effect: matte.
- Flat White. Approximate candidate: 3G Acrylic White AK11001. White is a matte opaque 3GEN paint and preserves the explicitly flat white effect. Family: AK 3rd Generation. Finish/effect: matte.
- Light Gray(1). No supported candidate is chosen for this numbered Light Gray(1) shade.
- RLM71 Dark Green. Approximate candidate: 3G Acrylic RLM 71 AK11822. Manufacturer identifies AK11822 as RLM 71. The original RLM71 name is retained without inventing an H/C product number; formulation remains approximate. Family: AK 3rd Generation. Finish/effect: matte.
- Yellow. Approximate candidate: 3G Acrylic Yellow AK11044. Yellow is a named opaque water-based candidate. Exact source formulation and dried appearance are untested. Family: AK 3rd Generation. Finish/effect: matte.
- Cream Yellow. Approximate candidate: 3G Acrylic Pastel Yellow AK11037. Pastel Yellow provides a pale cream-yellow candidate. Family: AK 3rd Generation. Finish/effect: matte.
- Light Gray. No supported Light Gray candidate is chosen. This ingredient remains separate from the jacket’s Light Gray(1).
- Olive Drab. No candidate is chosen because the original does not identify which Olive Drab shade is intended.
- Brown. Approximate candidate: 3G Acrylic Deep Brown AK11102. Deep Brown supplies a generic brown approximation, kept distinct from Pale Brown, Mahogany and Wood Brown. Family: AK 3rd Generation. Finish/effect: matte.
- Flat Base. Flat Base is a flattening additive mixed into paint. No supported equivalent is chosen; matte paint and varnish serve different purposes.
- Burnt Iron. No supported burnt-iron candidate is chosen. Burnt Tin has a different metal color.
Optional supplies are recommendations for the tasks described above, not manufacturer-required purchases. The AK 3GEN thinner applies only to the AK 3GEN candidates. Do not paint materials the original warns against painting. Digital color squares are browsing aids; they do not prove dried color, pigment strength, sheen, metallic reflection, transparency or a successful mixture.
