Quick and easy "pro" photo studio for your models...
Bigjeff replied to Bigjeff's topic in Tips, Tricks, and Tutorials
Good point! I just want to point out, you're supposed to have min a light on each side and front...I only had the on on the left side on that pic. Also, using some kind of shade in front of the light will minimise glare (I use bottom of milk gallon jugs)...all in all it's far from perfect but way better than a messy bench -
I found some old rubber at work today and it gave me an idea.... I will try to perfect the technique..got enough rubber for about 300 tries lol!! I wanna see what i can do with a dremel... anyway, here's how they look in the car And all touched up, interior completed! I'm still painting the undercarriage and body atm, should be all done by this week end

Rivet counting isn't fun for most armored or plane guys IMO...I think for most of us is still about enjoying ourselves and a loud minority is giving us a bad rep -
Finaly got around to repainting the interior (sripped, re-primed re-painted) I like it much better!

it's all different skills....a paint job on a car requires much more work! If i mess up on a tank...I just put fake mud over the blemish ... -

Hey! Here's the last piece or armor i completed, M113 with UN markings and paint like in Kosovo in the early 90s I wanted to try some different wethering methods so i went all out xD Still pretty clean I used vallejo paints for the main color, rally watered down Tamiya for the mud it's not perfect but it was hella fun!!
