Luke PF looks horrible next to Han PF...

[Collector Freak]

I just got my Han Solo today. I put him near Luke and he makes Luke look horrible. The skin tone on Luke's face looks all wrong and he looks sickly. Han really put Luke into perspective. I might just sell Luke after this revelation.

Anyone else feel the same way?

I don't have Han, how about some pictures side by side?

"Sticky?" I think you may have gotten a bad Luke, mine is anything but glossy.

 

[Gruson]

I can see what you are saying.

Luke does have a more "green" tone to his skin, especially when placed by Han. It's not that bad though.

A quick fix is install some lighting and he looks even better.

I say get another one. There have been some that have really bad paintjobs. I really like mine, though.

Han is a much better piece than Luke, IMO, so that might cloud your judgment a bit. I think Han is the best SW 1/4 released so far. He will have some stiff competition with Obi-Wan and Grievous coming up. I can't wait to get those 2.

I much prefer the paintjob on my Luke to Han, there seems to be more variation to it.

I'm just worried about Leia being more tan than Han, that just won't look right.

The thing is I thought Luke looked fine until I got Han! Picture coming in a moment...

My Luke has a much darker skin tone than Han, with a lot more shading and blending of different tones. He does look like he has been living on a desert planet rather than in a spaceship. Han's skin is much lighter, but they both look good to me. I don't think that my Luke looks sick--the area around his eyes is shaded a bit darker, and if not done properly this could give him a sickly look, but the one I'm looking at looks good.

Okay, the sun is gone so I can't get a decent picture, but here are two anyway:

I think the pictures are enough to convey my point, but if anyone wants I can take more (hi-res) pictures tomorrow.

How did you get Luke to hold the macrobinoculars?? I tried, but I don't want to break the hand.

Mrs. Butterworth's.




Kidding! This is the exclusive version. Sideshow attached them for me.

 

[Collector Freak]

Ahhh.



DOH!

Not related to Luke, but if you flip down Han's collar he looks much better.

Like this:

I tried. It's not easy. I'd need to iron it or something. They should have used a wire in the collar. :\

 

[Darklord Dave]

If you flip the collar down in the back it stays open pretty easily.

Yeah, just flip it down in the back and make sure it's flipped down all the way around. I got mine to stay down on the first try. A wire probably wouldn't work that well with such a thin shirt.

Thanks for the tip. It worked.


Oh, and just my luck, it's a cloudy rainy day. I guess more pics will have to wait.

I do not have han 1/4 to compare with, but I like luke, it looks OK to me.

paintjob makes or brakes it
