Lightbox: The Miniature Photography Trials

On: 2016-08-27
In: Hobby, Models & Painting
Tagged: Hobby, Ignore Me, Painting, Photography

I recently built myself a lightbox using the method @tabletopminions recommends in his video, Photo Lightbox: Build or Buy. I need to get brighter bulbs, it seems, but a good first attempt. Photographing the miniatures is a little different using the lightbox rather than my painting spotlights & improvised backdrops. I’m going to need some practice. And/or a better camera.

As a side note, this is after I used Mod Podge Acrylic Gloss Sealer on the musician and non-bejeweled dudes. The guy with jewels in his beard is still unsealed. I was playing with various sealants to see what I like & don’t like. I think I’ll make that a post down the road…

Yup, definitely will need some practice doing photos like these. I think there’s huge potential for showing of model details, though!
