I know I am going to get flak for this, but what is a "Modelling Justice Warrior"? Not being smart, just really don't know. (Public schooling in south Texas in the 1960s you know.)
Don't worry mate. I don't know what or who they are either. All I know is I want to be one!

Wow , 'The League of Modelling Justice Warriors' they sound sooo cool.
How do I join? Would I need a special power? Do I get a cool suit, a mask and a secret underground hideout?
I could be 'Sanditman' 'cause I love sanding so much! Can sand a surface to Atomic Smoothness.

Are you talking about me ???
Talking about who? Sorry, I can't see your message.😳😜

Looks great! Wouldn't touch it again if it were me, revisiting models after they are finished is courting disaster. One paint spill and it's 'Dear oh dear.'
Perhaps boba just cleaned his ship occasionally. 🤔

Agree with that. Great photos; at first I thought they were reference shots of the real thing.
-
Agreed. Really good job on the storm trooper! Looks like a very 'clean' flawless build.

Just a rumour that I heard about the historical documents known collectively as "Star Wars" being an elaborate hoax
Millions of people died when Alderaan was destroyed. Do you think someone would actually do that just to make a movie?

You can't believe everything you hear mate! 😜

What? What kind of mad rambling is that? What's this Mike guy on?!?!

In the movies, did all that body armour ever do any good? Stormtroopers always seemed to go down with one hit no matter where it was.
An excellent question...I have often pondered this myself along with other obvious thoughts such as how well can they see out of all that gear? I always just assumed that each one we saw 'go down' had died, but might be that In some (or many) cases an otherwise fatal wound has been reduced to a severe but treatable injury by the presence of armour. We rarely see the aftermath of battle in StarWars, so it might be that many of these soldiers, are recovered, given medical attention and returned to service. This logic might apply especially to clones each of which are genetically and medically identical- for all I know the empire might have huge reserves of spare clone parts and organs specifically reserved for the repair of injured stormtroopers. If this is the case the armour is well justified. 🤔

OK poodle - you asked for a critique so here it comes... Stop model building now! Someone who 'has never painted a model before' has no right, no right at all, to produce work this good! It is an insult to old fuddys like me who have been doing this for fourty years and still can't do half as well! It's an outrage!😩

Always wondered how you got into them? Is there some sort of ladder maybe? I can imagine at a base they would have lifts and stuff but wonder how it works in the field...
Even as a kid that bothered me
I always imagined that they would sort of 'sit down' like a ostrich or a chicken, thereby making the job a bit easier for crew. Still, the main access was on top as I recall, so it still could be a bit tricky.

That one looks so cool!!! Just for fun, how about German Air Force WW1 lozenge camouflage. Initially in authentic colours and then adjusted for different environments. I'm still loving this thread btw😀👍😀👍

Well here's my two bobs worth...(and I apologise to anyone that has heard me winge about this before). The only commonly available 1/48 Spitfire XIV is an Academy kit generally regarded as a remarkably inaccurate, even ugly model. Why no company (including Airfix, Eduard and now Academy) appear to have any plans to do a new tool of this important and attractive mark of wartime Spitfire is beyond my understanding.

What software are you using? I might have to learn how to do this!

It's two, seven and twelve for me. Great idea for exercising the imagination! Agree that it has to look practical and effective without just replicating something used by the military on earth. I studied zoological camouflage for a bit at at university . A bloke called Abbot Thayer (if I recall correctly) developed a number of principles of zoological camouflage in the early 20th century. If you can find his book it could provide a lot of inspiration.

Looking for someone with a 'sanding fetish' ? Have you seen my Mig 15 build? I sometimes think it's nothing but sanding, and for some wierd reason l like it. I don't want to imagine what a psychologist would say!😜
