To avoid further repaints you might want to look at the online reference pictures..

Thanks for the links and funny enough I used those pics and the main image references from the star wars books such as these images to help me with painting the post decals. visual references/ still objects were the first things I was taught to paint and use chalk too draw.

Did you use my decals as reference? It needs a bit more cleaning up and straightening.

on the sides? yeah I trimmed the model you sent and shrank it several times and then used that model it to fix the shape, drew lines as borders, and then painted it.

I noticed on the real props they are not that clear so this cleaning up and repainting over and over may not be totally necessary. But thanks for the model to use sorry it was way to big.


tks

thanks to a fellow garrison member I have new pics, with a totally new
helmet, and redone pack

Whoa, a world of difference from your first post - excellent job! And congratulations on your approval!

I did notice one detail though, that seems to be a quite common mistake. You're missing this detail:



Also, I would suggest raising your shoulder armour a couple of centimeters, so that it actually sits on your shoulders. And the backpack, so that it's about level with the top of your shoulders. That'll make it sit more comfortably, as well. And perhaps removing the E-11 holster for your deployment pictures, as none of the snowtroopers seen on screen (or anywhere else, for that matter) had holsters. A snowtrooper never holsters his gun!

And, a bit of weathering will add some extra character to your armor. Here´s how I did mine, in case you need a few pointers.

But all in all, a great job, and good on you for going the extra mile with this kit!
