Greetings,
Nice try, other than the lighting it looks good for a toy shot especially, hey since when is this the last one??? Star Wars was originally a trilogy of trilogy's, as in 9, the 1st relased was actually #4, then 5 and 6, then 1,2 and now 3, so we should still have 7,8 and 9 to come!!!

When photographing action figures it's best to bounce the flash off of something and back it away from the background. Or maybe backlighting Vader would given him a little more intimidating effect.

Don't like the wall behind him...maybe a poster print from the movie would be better??

1st off its a good idea......

but i would use some backlighting in the future to make it (just a toy) seem more real cast a silo. into the camera...

then light it from the front just a tad like a flashlight beam.

then put a CPL on the camera and shot to get rid of the reflections

might i also suggest a pure white backround so as to drasticaly contrast vader and give the full grayscale with out having to over expose the reflections.....

GL have a good 1 and try this again for fun....
