I need a thesaurus to learn how to say "Great job!" and not sound so damn repetitive.

Nice work!

DAMN that's one sweet snowtrooper!  Very clean lines and nice backpack.

Not sure about the legs though.

I'd try one of the Baroness figure's legs.

Suggestions = I got nothing...looks real nice!

I love the fog of war you've got in there.

For a good clear coat and seal, Testors Dull-Cote rocks.  Not shiny at all, and it's fairly durable.  It comes in the little spray cans.

Nice job putting the various parts together and making them cohesive.  it looks like the figure's body, head, and limbs are all original to it.  The paint is eye-catching, which I think a Twi'lek dancer would want.  Nice use of the gold on the head and lekku.

Well, if it came from a prison camp/world, I would expect it to be mainly drab and dull in color.  However, I think it'd be cool to see a Slave I with an Imperial look to it.  Paint on!

Simply awesome!

Thanks DP.  Although I suspect ulterior motives with your praise.  You just want a kiss and hug, don't you?  I'm not THAT easy.   ;)

Thanks also MJ.

Nice job.  I'm a rookie here too, so welcome to the boards! 

The green lines are nice and straight.  What kind of paint and/or sealant did you use?  I only ask because he looks a tad too glossy, but that could be due to camera flash, or the fact that it's got shiny clear plastic all around it.

As for the black lines, I assume they're battle damage, or just wear and tear.  For blaster marks, I put a bit of black ink on my finger or a qtip, then just "punch" a spot on the figure.  I'd suggest you blur those lines a tad to make it look more authentic.

All in all a great start to customizing.

What did you use for his leg holster?

The more I look at it, the more impressed I am by that paintjob.  It's so clean, yet still the camo stays functional and believable.  The leg camo job is to be envied.

Looks good.  The combination of the head with the scaly-looking robes is perfect.  The pushpin glass idea is brilliant!  I'd been toying with the idea of sculpting glasses and cups - but pushpins it will be!

Chewie, that wookie is probably the most creative and best-executed customs of one I have seen.  Great job.

As always DD, excellent work.  I like how you made his black legs a tad shinier than the rest of his armor.  Definitely the best Gree I've seen done.

As far as the pics go, I think the bottom shot (the big pic) that Talon posted has some color consistency issues all its own.  When I've compared that to other Gree screenshots, pics, and just from what I remember of the movie -  there are a lot of color discrepancies.

I second what he ^^^^^^ said.  I didn't even notice the rangefinder thing until you mentioned it.
