I've been a bit quiet this summer, as it ihas all been rather busy IRL - but that doesn't mean I haven't been painting. Just not photographing!

I originally painted these little chaps as part of a competition on the Lead Adventure Forum, but I also entered them into the Unit category at Sheffield Irregular's IMP09 event, where they won me the bronze award! Hurrah! Smiling




Clearly photography is still one of my weak points, but I keep working on it! Smiling Used a tripod and a white top on my photobox, this time!

Your C&C are most welcome!

excellent

Prize winning, and rightly so.

Photography is pretty good. Like good acting, good photography is something you do not notice when is done right. Possibly a fraction more light or exposure, but looking great.

Really love the hue and detail on their faces

Thanks Phil Smiling

Two things I can see I need to try next are to adjust the angle at which I'm taking photos - basically attach the box I photograph in six inches lower down the wall! Smiling And also to wrap the lights I'm using in a white card 'lampshade' to direct more of the light into the box. I think that will help lots. I also need to make myself a white infinity backdrop as well!

Still, just got to keep trying!
