I like the "crude" weathering, very typical of the show period.
Are the colors and weathering accurate to the studio model ?
Your build is tempting me for one too. Is it the model that can be found on MiM ?

Thanks, Olcabour. I'm trying to make the colors and weathering as close to the studio model as possible. Of course the colors of the weathering are very subtle and look slightly different in each of the photos I have depending on photo age and whether flash was used, etc. It does look just a little "too colorful" at the moment but these will tone down once I do a pass with the chalk pastels.

FYI, Olcabour, The one I'm building is the Shadowknight kit and has been great to work with. Very accurate to the studio model.
