Just something i'm doing to give me a break from other projects and needed to use up some primer so thought I'd have a play with this...

It's a Kotobukiya resin model already made but the paint job was terrible!! So... i'm going to re-do it BigGrin

Great stuff Spencer, looks like a very nice figure and like you say always nice to do something different. I would try any genre if it appealed to me and those who only 'collect' models of one genre or subject miss out on so much and learn very little IMHO!!

Looking forward to your renovation mate - loved your 'Predator' figure by the way, very skilful paintjob!! Cool ThumpUp

Oh Lovely!

I fell in love with that armour from the first moments they were on screen! Why do the baddies always get the best uniforms? BigGrin

Small update on this.. detailing scratches takes up a lot of time and not sure if i've overdone it but be interested in what you think.. Leave or tone down? Still a long way to go yet.

Hello Spencer,

I think he looks like a veteran of several major campaigns!! Who's to say that it is or isn't right as Star Wars is Science Fiction/Fantasy anyway, so anything is possible?? Depends how happy YOU are with it?? I think it looks fine, but you are the one who will keep getting niggled with it if you aren't happy with it?? So, if you're happy leave it as is, if not change it!?

As I said it looks fine to me!!

Love the updates mate and look forward to them with anticipation. Cool ThumpUp
