So Snake busted out the blood. Good to see. Those stairwells are perfect for it to run.

That spot is simply awesome TC! It has so much potential. Looks in scale too.

Snake; nice job adding the chunk of concrete.

Next, take your Daddy's hammer to another chunk and scoup the debris into a coffee can to sprinkle about on your dio pieces.

Corp, that's some perfectly cast figures for the movie shot. Do you have the pte Seal Boat, the bigger one?

Here's that moon I picked up the other day. Just have to work on hiding the stand better.

I know I need smaller chunks, I don't need "Daddy's Hammer" mine will do much better. Acutually there was more to the shot than what you see in this thread. The first pic just wasn't focused good enough to show.



I use mommy's camera.

Didn't like how that first shot turned out so I aimed the moon at the front. I think it looks a little better. Doesn't have that glaring sphere behind it.

Awesome Blood. Very spooky. Where did you get all these scaled skulls and tomb stones?

Thanks Rick. I got them at Michaels craft store and they are all on sale right now. Probably about $1.50 for a pack. That tree was in the same collection and it's lit by the moon on the page before. That moon may prove to be a useful tool.

idk why I don't use my old JP raptor more.


(Pic from the review I wrote)

Edit: Actually this pic would've been more suited to that other thread.

I like your second shot BLOOD. A tad on the dark side but I can make out who is in it.

Yea, that is about as much light as it will get on that photo. Wish I would have thought to put stars or some clouds in the background.

No worries BLOOD not every night is starry. Something to try next time. I am amazed that all you really need for night shot background is black. It always works.

I found it easier to use Recondo's rifle, LL just doesn't hold on to his own that well, cool as it is. Scarlett is sniper qualified so I felt she was best as spotter, I just gave her a Lady J body.

Yes, love the night vision shot there TC. Got a chill of winter up my spine looking at that one. Being out in the cold at night with wind in your face on those ATV's.

Snake great pose on LL. Nice swap on the weapon, looks like he manages it well.

Awesome shot!!

LJ/Scarlet mix throws me off a bit but I'm really digging the shot.

Well the thing is that gymnastics leotard just isn't tactical at all. Don't get me wrong she wears it well but she would have looked totally out of place in this shot. So I took pilot Scarlett's head and a Lady J body and I feel it works pretty good. I will play around more with LBCs in the future, nothing to fancy but expect the unexpected.

Just got this done, I like to use night vision effects on some shots and this one seemed a prime candidate for the treatment.


Might as well give you the B&W too.

That picture looks really good in B&W, Snake. It's all together a really good photo but that really brings out the detail way better. That Ultimate Soldier farmhouse is a great setting. Now I really wish I bid on one of those.

What do they go for now? I paid about 50 + for it.


Next I'm gonna try to use the barn.

So.... more B&W? That one almost didn't make it, personally I prefer night vision shots.

B&W has it's place on occasion. It brings out certain shades better sometimes. Night vision is cool but really needs to be looking at something I feel. Just feels out of place when a shot is showing the scene in NV. Now if you had LL's scope on a target in NV that would be hawt.

I see the same detail in both other takes, so I don't follow. I do see that we have some B&W fans and I'll do some that way. The key word being some.

With the B&W you can see shadows much better than with color. Where you can see the the details of each item in color nicely the B&W really gives the image more depth it seems. If that makes sense. For that shot especially it looks great. The old farm house makes it seem that is what type of picture it would actually be at the time.
