Vader's Clone

This was a request from Matthew McKnight for a Clone of Darth Vader with a new armor, as the original Vader's armor was cremated with him. This is by far the most difficult piece I have ever done. I used every single tool in my artistic arsenal, including both 3D and 2D programs. The base figure was done in Poser. The armor was then drawn in illustrator. Then, using bryce, I created plastic textures for the armor. The background was created in Illustraitor, imported into Strata 3D CX, and the imported into Poser, or the sake of consistency and proportions. The texturing and compositing of the pictures was done in Photoshop. I would really like to know what you guys think, as it's the first time I've ever done anything like this.
