Only one complaint - You should have had two separate threads for these bad boys :lol

Great displays and superb photography.

Looks great Gino!
Lucasfilm should definitely hire you to oversee their museum displays.
My favorite of the ANH set are the two helmet shots done in the style of the Tantive IV. And my favorite of the ESB is the last one. "Join me..."

Excellent pictures and congratulations on finally completing your displays.

OK GINO, listen up! This is insane, I mean TOTALLY MADNESS!!!!!!!!!

I have been on the RPF since the year 2000 and I have seen alot of talent and different skills in sculpting, painting, etc etc. But this thread is absolutely AMAZING.:eek:eek:eek:eek:eek:eek:eek:eek:eek:eek:eek:eek:eek

I want to say congratulations and thanks for showing us this. I know how many years you spent on this, and how much research that has gone into this
projects.

George Lucas should be proud thats for sure. The details in those last photos
and those poses, WOW I am speechless.

For the ANH Vader . . .

OK, This one is absolutely my favorite ANH picture so far – it gave me chills :eek remembering the ANH Opening and Leia’s Interrogation scene onboard the Tantive IV. Vader had some close-ups in that scene, where we are introduced to his character and this is DEAD-ON!

I like this scene and the helmet you have labored over because it presents Vader as dity, raw and rough and not spit-polished and perfect. He is part of the invasion force, not just observing it from his Star Destroyer. It’s gritty and down right amazing!

PLEASE take more classic pose photos in this suit! :)

Stunning work, Gino. Absolutely Stunning.


For the ESB Vader . . .

Such a classic pose as Vader does his best to sway his son to the Dark Side. Once again, amazing work on the suit and helmet showing us the way a spot-on TESB Vader should look.

I can almost feel the wind of the open Cloud City shaft tugging at his cape here.

Amazing. :confused
 
Re: ANH & ESB DARTH VADER - finally complete!!

I couldnt agree more with Dewback Rider! I too love those close up shots of the ANH Vader, The attention to the detailing and weathering you've done is second to none Gino. .. More of where that came from please :love

Respect to ya!
 
Re: ANH & ESB DARTH VADER - finally complete!!

this detail is the only complaint I have:

It´s not understood right. Looks like only a little scratch and a painted silver brush stroke, which it wasn´t.
But the rest is quiete well done!
 
Re: ANH & ESB DARTH VADER - finally complete!!

Ah-ah....we are not permitted to critique in a showoff thread....:unsure

But Trap Joe I think you are basing how it should look on something that isn't correct either...

Re: ANH & ESB DARTH VADER - finally complete!!

These are two of the most incredible display pieces i've ever seen! The accuracy and ATD is second to none!
Congrats Gino, you must be very proud!
BTW what colour is your ANH grille mesh?

Thanks

Re: ANH & ESB DARTH VADER - finally complete!!
