I finished the next couple of troops of Scythians earlier this week, but I have held off showing them as I was expecting a new toy; a small fold up light box (complete with LED strip) in the hopes that I could improve my photography. It arrived today, so I have been experimenting and have the results of the first test pictures.
A troop of Scythian Horse Archers.
The hope was that the lighting would be better. I think there is some improvement, but I will play around with extra lighting (I still have some LED lamps from my previous set up,which was a converted cardboard box. One thing the new light box has is it folds up into a small bag, very easy to store.
The miniatures are once again from my old army, so just needed some repair work to the old paint jobs, plus a bit more detail adding.
I'll post the other completed unit soon. I was more interested in trying out the new light box.
I only need one more troop to complete the 'Clash' force, plus the hero to lead them. These will be started from scratch though, so might take a little longer.
Looking good, not too sure about your new toy, the light does not seem bright enough?
ReplyDeleteYes, not as bright I had hoped, but I can add to that. The direction of the light is better though, it seems to avoid the harsh shadows I got previously unless I really turned down the illumination (hence the old pictures were too dark)
