I‘m working on a small “studio” that I’ll use to take pictures of my miniatures when size/scale is relevant to the discussion. I’m a bit fed up with searching the Web for photos that demonstrate the size of a given model as accurately as possible. This is especially problematic at the smaller scales such as 6mm, 10mm, and 15mm, since the size of race-specific models not only varies depending on the manufacturer, but because most of the representatives for such companies apparently don’t have enough time to take photos of their products. I want to make a contribution to the community to alleviate this problem that makes so much of us hesitate to invest in a certain range. I’d also like to quell certain rumors about how so-and-so’s range will never match right with such-and-such a line, etc.
I’ve had the materials to build this studio for several months, but finally broke out the saw and hobby knife this evening. Nothing is finalized yet, but I finished the studio enough tonight to take a few test pictures. Featured here are photos of a Mirliton goblin standard with the two prototype background colors. I want colors that show off the model well, but also make it easy to gauge the size. So far, I am pleased with the results.
I should mention that Artizan inspired me to use dark blue as one of my background colors.
