I must also sadly voice this opinion, yet the cleanliness doesn't exactly make me feel as though its off, more rather that it's not complete. If my assumption is correct that you made this with plasticard, the current one note state of the white aside from the tiny amount of dirt along the rims, makes it seem as though its simply plasticard, unpainted and unattended to. I would personally recommend that if you're going for a metal painted white, add a couple rivets and imperial iconography along the broad flat surfaces, and add a bit of weathering and gunmetal along the edges, just to break up the blanket of white.

 

That's my thoughts on the paint, but that creation as a whole is simply spectacular!

The cleanlness of it is a little "different", but the painting and crafting in general is top-notch... so it looks wonderful!
I love the metal on that door, the way the light hits it jsut makes it look like no Chaos is getting through that heavy-metal barrier!

Thanks for comments guys. I know it looks a bit too clean, but the surfaces are soo large it's difficult to paint them well, not spending 2 weeks on weathering:P Maybe, I'll add some special efects later, now I got enough of that piece:)

 

yeah, it was laser cut, I'm not insane:P

I think it's great as-is, and will be awesome if you weather it a bit. Some cracks in the walls and bullet holes will take it to the next level.

 

Still, massive props on making this, must have took ages. That will make for a hell of a centrepiece to any games/display shots you care to do.
