Hi again…
I just posted a new page on my website, and I invite you all to take a look. Unfortunately, because I have a 10MB limit, I had to remove a few things. Hopefully you’ll think the replacement is worth it. Here’s the link:
Um… would you believe a velour blanket?[:I]
Hey, it’s cheap[(-D]. Besides the only other good background I have is 10’ X 20’… a bit of overkill for model pics! And thanks to everyone for the compliments.
Wow, very nice models. Definitely some jaw dropping detail!!
As for the room on your web page… If this is a concern of yours, I would suggest cutting down on the size of the pictures. You can still see a lot of detail if the pictures are 1200 pixels wide. Of course, this won’t show off your talents quite as well, but it would save a lot of room. Depending on what web page editor you use, you may be able to go into the web file and delete several things like parts of a theme that are not used. Just a few suggestions that I hope can help.
Thanks for sharing the pics. We have all enjoyed them
Thanks, Gip. I’m using a Canon EOS 10D; I’ve been a film shooter all my life and this digital beastie takes some getting used to (along with the 150 page manual!). The pictures will improve as I get a better handle on how the camera does what it does; it’s far from simple. I use a studio flash head inside a 24" X 36" soft-box, suspended horizontally on a boom directly over the table where I shoot the models. On both sides of the table are pieces of white foam-core, and a third piece of foam-core is mounted in front under the camera. Hope that’s clear. Actually it’s a rather commonplace setup; you’d see the same sort of thing used in commercial product photography. Thanks again; glad you enjoyed the site.
Always liked the “look” of the Panzer III. Yours truly represents how I’ve always pictured an actual piece in combat. Outstanding work on all your replicas. Thanks for making them available to a novice such as me. Great pics. Best regards.
