Yea the legs are definitely spread too wide, I'm not going to fix that anymore, it's glued and puttied .
About the dial, Ah heck, it's supposed to look a little 40k still, so it is fine like this, just the bars and then painting this fella!

About R2 1 more time :p I already have 6 minigunners as Jokaero. R2 is an objective marker and thats final!

Haha! I forgot about the mini gunners! Yeah, if c3 is in puttied in place then best to leave him. The head is very impressive. So the mission objective is reuniting two best friends and their robot bromance.

3PO is looking rather convincing... with the mentioned additions i think you have a winner...again^^... maybe get the pose a bit less dynamic... 3PO is the stuffest piece of SW ever since leia was thawed by han

R2 is great but I'm not sold out on C3 - the legs are to wide spread and that's breaking the original posture/movement pattern

The Dust Tactics Wildfire/Honey kit is basically a motorcycle with legs, is very close to the scout walker

Hehe.

3po is not getting fixed, it's fine that he looks like a scratchbuild.

Jedi is finished: (He doesn't come out right with this light though)

intersting eyes... and i like all those clean lines...that is really your strong side of the painting!!!

Very nice indeed! Vik is right about those clean lines, very well executed!

I want to say something but nothing I can say would explain how dam amazing your work is R2D2 is great

it is all pefect! But there is one details that ruins everything and for me........

Kit Fisto has black eyes.



based on this terrible inaccuracy i believe you should scrap the project and send all your models to ME for safe disposal.

Unless they're goggles!

Hahaha!

Ehm no.. His eyes are black. And as you can see in your picture, his eyes are pretty big and shiny, and has reflection..
I just overdid the reflection a bit I might fix it a little so they look more black, and fotograph the dude in better light.


But.. All the infantry is done. (minus 3po, but that's a piece of a cake anyway) Which means there is 1 thing left to do..

GUNSHIPS.

The Big Tournament is in 3,5 weeks!

Lol.

I would have just painted the eyes balck and then used a dab of gloss varnish. but i'm not going to pretend to be anywhere near your level.....and i'm lazy.

Cant wait to see pics of the painted Gunships.

Hey no sweat Prax

Criticism is a good thing man, keeps you sharp!
Gloss varnish is a good tip, but I only prefer the painted effect over the ''real'' effect of the gloss.

I'm pretty psyched about the gunships too. Painting is in progress as we speak..

Fisto and C3PO are looking great. Can't wait to see the gunships!

D

kit looks cool, the eyes are a bit on the shiny side but I still think it looks cool!

Wip 3po:

Super wicked cool..

D

My hero you are. Amazing this is. Continue you must!

still not satisfied with the pose... but it is absolutly recognizable as a threepio^^

What the hell is wrong with the pose ? it is from the scene when he waves to R2D2 isn't it

hmmm.... that is something i could live with

Said it all this guy has.

cool C3P0 although the fact that you showed him in a pic without R2D2 is offensive, I ask you to give me one sir!... please...

Yes, show us the droids we're looking for.

Yea my Yoda grammer isn't that good as yours guys .

naww... all is cool

No 3po finished pics yet. But got to please the crowds.

Here's a teaser:

DAMN YOU THIS LOOKS COOL!
