Thanks for the comments guys! It was a very fun and simple build. I highly recommend the Bandai Star Wars kits as they are fun to do and they have some great engineering built into them as well.
Hm, well, if you ever want me to clean up backgrounds, let me know. I remember that you use LR as a converter; LR is quite good for that! Nice to know you may be getting a new camera rig as a birthday present. In my opinion, what you are using now is perfectly acceptable, but I won't get in the way of whatever your thoughts are... just... the results are already there. Controlled lighting and a bigger bench! That's what everyone needs. I also definitely approve of your usage of natural light for final beauty shots. I also really like the worn grey wood slatted chair you used as a background for your fishing lures and some parts of your "Wog" project. Perhaps that is very 2014-15 for your development shooting images of work in progress, but I like the grey tone. In fact, after Thomas chided me in a good-natured way about usage of neutral colored backgrounds, I almost converted to using these, too, but I still prefer white and I love these stormtrooper shots very much!
Those are some fantastic shots. I love the many poses! If you want a true Glamour shot, you should pose him like Saturday Night Fever!
