I've been deeply submerged for a long time now but I've recently built a light box for some other work and have been using various action figures I own as test subjects. The variety of colors that my Transformers and Shinkis come in allow me to practice setting up lighting and also doing the necessary post-processing.

Nice pics! I've also been planning on making my own light box to improve the quality of my shots (esp. since I recently got a new and better camera). Maybe I'll do something like what I keep seeing on fg-site.

BTW, you seem to have enough TF's to start your own photocomic (I don't TF's have any at the moment, only gunpla).

your pics just kinda made me want a Fubuki now...

White foam-core board, clip-on shop lights, and a piece of white tagboard is all I used for this box, real simple and the base box was built in 20 min. It's light and easy to transport, which is a must as the client whose work it was built for lives across town.

As for the photocomics: I have more than enough TFs (Over 500!) and plenty of ideas for that but it's simply a matter of not having the time to do one justice.

Glad to be of assistance in that. She's a nice figure and well worth what I paid for her. I'd love to have the winged version but the scarf is far too awesome for her.

I got a new camera, a Nikon D90, so I've got to learn the ins and outs of it. Here's a couple of Strarf shots as I learn the lightbox again with the new camera.

Shinki a day perhaps? Too bad I'd run out of subjects rather quickly... will have to think of ways to mix it up.

Who's the Shinki that greets the others with a boob-squeeze from behind? That's right, it's Juvsy.

Of note, I have a personality in my head for all of them, I'll share Strarf's in the future.

I...

I'm sure there's some stuff with Juvisy doing just that, but I've never seen it. What weirds me out is that's exactly the pose I've got Juvisy in, doing that to poor Vespelio.

I guess she just seems like that sort?

I tend to view her more like Momoko from Sumomomo momomo(momomomo*slap*). She jsut looks so similar IMO. So, still a bit pervy, but not quite THAT bad.

Long ago, when I did a photocomic, she was the Shinki that would do that. She thought nothing of it and that it was cute. Even after Benio knocked her for a loop.

Now for the newest two in the collection.

Haven't quite decided a personality yet, she's so new, but there are ideas forming in my head.

Next up is Yda, I've had her for a while but still there's no real personality coming to mind. I am leaning towards her being relatively competitive and regularly sparing with Benio, hence the sword at her hip.

I did try to divide by zero with Espadia in her full armor mode but her hips aren't tight enough for that. I did, however, get her to stand without the backpack for a little bit.
