Mr Man Posted March 6, 2013 Posted March 6, 2013 Taken me a year since the new Sandtroopers came out, but finally managed a trip to the beach yesterday and smuggled along a passenger for a quick shot ;-) Sandtrooper by smokebelch, on Flickr The Beach! It looks nice there, it was all fog up here yesterday . However the pic does look stunning, the light is making a nice 'ting' sound on his helmet. Quote
Commander_Rob Posted March 6, 2013 Posted March 6, 2013 Very nice shot. I remember thinking, way back when the first pics of the new Sandtroopers showed up, "Smokebelch is gonna have a field day with those guys!" Quote

I remember thinking, way back when the first pics of the new Sandtroopers showed up, "Smokebelch is gonna have a field day with those guys!" Cheers! Wish I could spend more time getting some shots of these guys- don't live near the beach anymore, and just squeezed in a quick couple of shots whilst I had a chance. Quote

Masked Builder Posted March 7, 2013 Posted March 7, 2013 They're beautiful! I wish I had an eye for shots like that. Quote
Commander_Rob Posted March 8, 2013 Posted March 8, 2013 Niiiiice shot. I guess it's the light, but it looks like there's a very slight sepia tint to it. Quote
kibosh Posted March 8, 2013 Posted March 8, 2013 ^^^ Cheers guys! One more alternate shot- Sandtrooper by smokebelch, on Flickr Taken me a year since the new Sandtroopers came out, but finally managed a trip to the beach yesterday and smuggled along a passenger for a quick shot ;-) Sandtrooper by smokebelch, on Flickr Absolutely beautiful.

raphmeister Posted March 12, 2013 Posted March 12, 2013 I love how clean your images are! Especially love the one with the droids. thanks kibosh! just got my first lego vader so first pics of him :) and my first try at doing lightsabers on images... which is why vaders saber looks pretty shoddily done :) cheers Quote
Brickington Posted March 12, 2013 Posted March 12, 2013 These are great images! Very clean and effective. The lightsabers aren't to bad. They are much pretty than I could do! Quote
Metallic11 Posted March 12, 2013 Posted March 12, 2013 Smokebelch that alternate picture is stunning, especially with the filter/effect on it, or am I wrong as you have fantastic photography skills! I'm not amazing at photography, but I think this came out quite nicely! LEGO Boba Fett by Metallic11, on Flickr Quote
KotZ Posted March 12, 2013 Posted March 12, 2013 Wow, these are great guys! Raphmesiter, I love yours, and yes the lightsabers aren't too bad. LFCMessi, can I ask what you did in post (if anything at all) to make your picture look like that? It looks like you de-saturated it and maybe gave it a cyan tint. Quote
Metallic11 Posted March 13, 2013 Posted March 13, 2013 (edited) Wow, these are great guys! Raphmesiter, I love yours, and yes the lightsabers aren't too bad. LFCMessi, can I ask what you did in post (if anything at all) to make your picture look like that? It looks like you de-saturated it and maybe gave it a cyan tint. Thank you for your comment, I actually just held up a regular spotlight and used that as my light source for the de-saturated, it just came out like that Edited March 13, 2013 by LFCMessi Quote
Brickington Posted March 13, 2013 Posted March 13, 2013 Nice images! That's pretty talented if you got it saturated without photo-editing. Quote
Metallic11 Posted March 13, 2013 Posted March 13, 2013 Another one from me, this time one of my favorite SW figures! Thank you for the kind comment Brickington! I will admit it didn't turned out as good as the other one (Well at least in my opinion) but it looks decent... LEGO Senate Commando by Metallic11, on Flickr Quote
Mr Man Posted March 14, 2013 Posted March 14, 2013 thanks kibosh! just got my first lego vader so first pics of him :) and my first try at doing lightsabers on images... which is why vaders saber looks pretty shoddily done :) cheers Nice, and I think the Lightabre blades came out well. I will admit it didn't turned out as good as the other one (Well at least in my opinion) but it looks decent... I like the blue hue on your photos Quote
