I'll have a full size Fett like that one day. It looks perfect!
It must cost a lot to get all the parts though.

Thanks again everyone ...

Money ?$?$?$? HA HA HA ... we don't need to go down that path

I know I'm in the 3k bracket too ...<font color="#FF0000"> MORE or less



Rogue Studios - Thanks Lee !! I appreciate that. We should get together sometime soon and put our heads together again ...



Well, here is the first of a set of 4-6 pics that I will be placing on my site. I had to experiment a little with the new camera, as well as lighting ect.. I'm not a photographer, but I'm pretty pleased with the results for now. As I get more experience with the in's and out's of this new camera, I'll probably retake them anyway.

These photos were taken indoors in a makeshift studio I put together in a spare room in my house. I used 4 500 watt lighting rigs, reflected off of everything but Boba in an attempt to get even light and eliminate shadows.
I used a piece of white foam core siding insulation for the backdrop, and a piece of white styrene under his feet, to get that studio feel. For the photography aficionados, I used a Canon EOS Digital Rebel, 15 feet away from the subject so I could get a 50mm focal length for the whole display. Lens aperture F/5.6, ISO-100, +0.3 exposure compensation, with no flash.

The posted pic is not actual size. It was sized down for posting. But below is a link to the full size pic, but beware, it's pretty big for those who might be on dial-up.

Again, my first real attempt in taking good photos, so go easy on me

For not being a pro photographer, the image looks amazing. Plus all that technical stuff you wrote about your camera. That sounds like a pro to me.

And so the bar is now raised five notches higher. Top notch work, my friend.

 

[fettpride]

Thanks guys


Here's an animation I whipped up before the new camera to kinda show what I planned for displaying this on my site.

This was of course before the "BUTTPLATE" was detailed

Color is also off because of the old camera, but you get the idea ..
