Ridiculous destruction of Vintage Star Wars vehicles...

[Clawrence]

So I stumbled on the below photo on Facebook market place this morning, I understand customisation is just another part of the hobby but this takes the piss.

I can stomach if the guy spent time and effort detailing an "accurate" to the film and turning it into a model, But getting out a can of Poundland special silver paint and destroying a vintage vehicle is too much for me. :evil:

Utterly pointless :shock:

At least if they'd added weathering details etc it would at least look good.

This guys T shirt sums up my reaction

I don't understand what he was trying to achieve by doing this? Making a good ship look ****? Congratulations Sir, you managed it... Twat.

Wanton destruction, pointless result.

Couldn't agree more, like you said, if it was weathered, it would look half decent and would be acceptable, but silver paint makes it look like shite.

What amazes me is how proud he looks. You've spray-painted it silver, not painted the Sistine Chapel.
