The #2, #4, and #6 as well as #8 colors look too dark, almost black
really.

#27 is more of a light brown and is accurate to the way Chewie looks
in Empire Strikes Back, which is a bit lighter than in ANH. In the
photos section on the group is a picture of me wearing a fan-made
suit (not mine) back in October that was made using the #277 color.

In general I have found that the descriptions of the different colors
seem way off. I recommend getting out the phone book (or using
http://www.realpages.com) and visiting some local beuaty supply shops
where you can look at it for yourself.

What color and type of hair did you use for your mask? You should
upload a few pics of your stuff (especially the mask and bowcaster)
to the Yahoo! group photos section.
