I'll Make Him Talk

[Rick]

Task Force 118 with Duke in his Command Bradley followed by their own Abrams and the Desert Ratts meet up with Team Whiskey's in their new ATGT where they have just finished the first round of interagations. Tracker, Oklahoma Chris and Duke have figured out who will most likely talk and give them the location of a high value target they've been searching for and go to work. He may just need to see how serious they really are. Plus there's only room for one.

Duke: Ok Boys, Saddleup, we got some bad guys to go catch!!

The End

Sweet! I love these shots you do! Would you be able to take a behind the scenes shot to show more of your layout, I'm planning on doing pretty much the same thing myself.

Incredible deserts shots! looks mighty good

 

[Bravestarr]

So f'ing amazing! If it wasn't helicopter month, I would suggest these as entries! What line is the wheeled vehicle from? Iron Man? Captain America?

Not sure if the wink meant you were kidding - but it is the CORP ATK or something like that - a few of us have used it for customs and Rick recently did as well.


Great pics Rick! I would love a "behind the scenes" look as well!

 

[Rick]

Thanks everybody!

Here's a couple behind the scenes. Just a half bucket of sand, some concrete blocks to create the hill without having to use more sand and to prop up the Abrams. My lighting is just a lamp on a long cord slung over some pipes so I can slide it around, raise or lower.

My sky is a 18x24 sheet of foam core board from Michaels labeled "Sky Blue"

Found my daughters Princess figure in the Bradley when I opened. She'll be happy.

HEY VIDEO GAMERS, What's on the laptop screen?

 

[MAJOR BLOOD]

It amazes me how you can make a space that size look so vast Rick. I mean, the environment looks endless in the pictures yet is such a small section for pictures. That is pretty damn good.

I love the second set of shots. The one where the dude has the gun in the insurgents mouth is awesome! Duke coming out of the bradley is some really good poses too. Every shot tells each scene well. Another home run.

Thanks! Thats pretty awesome, and amazing how it is so simple but works so well for your pictures. I definately will have to do this.

i agree

 

[G.I.*EDDIE]

this is an amzing set of pics Rick...really nice job...musta took a while to set it all up...

usually i can pic a fave, but there is just too many great ones...

MBs point on how you make it all look so vast is so spot on...really nice job of that...

i NEED to get that corps ride now...you have really sold it...not familiar with the game on the laptop in it though

 

[Fled74]

To be honest, I didn't notice the laptop in the ATK - I was just blown away by your photos and the level of detail in them.

 

[Rick]

Thanks Everybody!

I think shooting at eye level of the fig's and just having a few pieces set back a bit go a long way with the sense of depth.

This only took an hour or so. I had complete focus though. Wife wnt to a play with her critic friend and my daughter was up in Maine with her Grandmother at the Lobster Fest & Carnival.

The idea of Duke kicking the guy down was by acccident. While setting the figure up on his knees he fell forward and the light bulb went off. I used Red's method of burying the stand to get the pose.

nice shots and diorama, Rick !
