I'd agree, if it were more accurate to a film prop...
Not to say it's a bad paintjob or anything though... It's just excessive. I think I've seen that custom elsewhere at some point and the maker used a new technique he'd learned to get the look he did (layered), and it worked pretty neat to heavily weather the fighter... In ROTJ though the props weren't that heavily weathered/worn looking. They had a used and worn look, but it was more one that also showed care/maintenance as well...
A good earth-ish example is decoing an early-war German fighter compared to a late-war German fighter. In the early war the Luftwaffe took pretty good care of their planes, but the daily wear-and-tear of war was evident with a placed part showing discoloration, or a little grime... By late in the war though, their airforce was so decimated and unable to function, that the few planes they could get in the air generally showed heavy wear... Really only the new jets they put to the air as a last gasp of fight were taken good care of on the ground... Other planes saw heavy neglect.
The A-Wing props pictured above show fighters that, while having seen miles of war through replaced armor and things, the ship seems to get a fresh coat of paint from time to time, or a wash down to clean it up a bit.
With this fighter being Crynyd's, I'm pretty happy (with the early shots anyway) to see Hasbro trying to be accurate to that fighter from the film. I like seeing it different, but similar, to the fighter we got. The paintjob on the original ship was really outstandingly accurate in every way, save for the cockpit detailing. May be one of the best ships Hasbro's ever done in the line I think overall.
Of course that's not meant to put down the customizer's ship, it's pretty slick looking, but it certainly looks like a fighter that's been either neglected, or it's on the cusp of getting an overhaul in the hangars so it can return to the front lines some day.
