Some nice models Sith. I could never get into space models, tried and failed miserably:rolleyes:
Although with weathering you gotta be careful you don`t overdo it or underdo it. As evident in the speeder bike, just looks too clean. My method was to paint the model in a slightly darker shade than needed, get some of the really thick goo from the bottom of the tin of a lighter color, get a small amount on a brush and wipe off any excess then just tickle the surface of the model with the brush. The paint then adheared to the raised detail more thus picking out the details. I`ll post some pics of some unfinished models sometime.

Nice figures, the top one is a really good one and the second one of Masamune Date is cool as well.
(i'm thinking its of him, no guaruntees though)

It wasn`t intended to be him although the helmet is very reminiscent of his (the gold crescent moon). Purely fictitious.

I really think you ought to dust those figurines! After all they took you all that time to build...

dust.... it build up on models so quickly and is even harder to get off, unless you drycoat it... but even then its a pain, which is why ine are all in boxes for now until I can make up some plastic display stands for the good ones. and cases for all my SW statues and such.... I think i need 2 rooms :lol:
