def Posted May 23, 2010 Posted May 23, 2010 this is a really fantastic image; in the posing, the colors, the lighting. I like the work in this thread overall, but this is exceptional. Good job! Quote
smokebelch Posted May 23, 2010 Author Posted May 23, 2010 Thanks for the well wishes guys... not long now- the waiting is unbearable "I find your lack of breath disturbing, Captain..." Awesome shot! Been trying to do a version of this for a while, could never work out a good way to pose the figs- your solution's perfect Did you get your captain antilles fig in the end? Or is it a rebel trooper with tan arms Either way great shot! Quote
Commander_Rob Posted May 23, 2010 Posted May 23, 2010 Great picture, fenris, the posing is spot on. And smokebelch, if you think zombies and Star Wars doesn't mix well, here's something for you. I haven't read it, but it sounds promising and the concept alone is pretty good. Quote
The Legonater Posted May 23, 2010 Posted May 23, 2010 Some nice work guys. I love the Antilles shot. Im lacking in inspiration for lego shots at the mo (well SW lego anyways... zombies i can't get enough of been trying to resist the temptation to mix the two) Why? Get some Death Troopers shots...

smokebelch Posted May 24, 2010 Author Posted May 24, 2010 And smokebelch, if you think zombies and Star Wars doesn't mix well, here's something for you. I haven't read it, but it sounds promising and the concept alone is pretty good. That does sound pretty interesting- some food for thought there with some zombie stormies.... Couple of quick new ones- had some amazing weather over the weekend so couldn't resist a couple of balcony shots with my bonsai! ^^^ Staring down the barrel of a spear And heres a shot of the bonsai in all its glory... though there did seem to be a bit of a visitor from a previous shot Quote
Lord Arjay Posted May 24, 2010 Posted May 24, 2010 fenris your last pic is great, the posing is good as always. smokebelch those shots were lovely especially the last one. It is so relaxing, I feel sleepy looking at it... *yawn*..sooo sleeeeepy. Quote
brickfoot Posted May 24, 2010 Posted May 24, 2010 I Like all of your photos Smokebelch especially the last one with Indy relaxing. Quote
BrickPerfection Posted May 24, 2010 Posted May 24, 2010 fenris, you're lighting skills amaze me. I'm not such an expert in photography, but still deeply impressed! Keep it up! Quote
John31388 Posted May 24, 2010 Posted May 24, 2010 Wow great pics smokeblech, I love the scout trooperss and that Indy one is making sleepy again after just waking up from a nap lol Quote
Brickus Posted May 24, 2010 Posted May 24, 2010 Lovely pics smokebelch, and wow fenris that Vader choking Captain Antilles shot is amazing. Quote
fenris Posted May 25, 2010 Posted May 25, 2010 (edited) Thanks a lot everybody for the kind comments on my shots! Always great to know what people think about it! fenris, you\'re lighting skills amaze me. just take your phone or something like that... really pretty simple and the outcome is mostly quite cool! Did you get your captain antilles fig in the end? No, unfortunately not... kind of a pitty. My Imperial Inspection Palpy against nothing.. but he has a good rating on the straigthshooters list so I have to believe him that he really sent it... so I decided to pimp a tantive-rebel with tan arms... Your bonsai shots are awesome... when you bought that tree, did you image hundreds of people would look at pictures of that tree on the internet? Edited May 25, 2010 by fenris Quote
MandalorianWig Posted May 25, 2010 Posted May 25, 2010 Wow what a treat it has been looking through this awesome thread! Smokebelch - some awesome pics in here, you have a real knack for realistic minifig scale pics Fenris - throughout this thread you have came far in your quality of pics, now you are snapping some stunning pics keep it up!

fenris Posted May 26, 2010 Posted May 26, 2010 thank you very much for the kind words! just reviewed my old pic and i have to say: thanks for the encouraging words back then... my first tries were most cra.. well, not what i'd call a good pic today Quote
Ras 74 Posted May 26, 2010 Posted May 26, 2010 thank you very much for the kind words! just reviewed my old pic and i have to say: thanks for the encouraging words back then... my first tries were most cra.. well, not what i'd call a good pic today I find it both funny and interesting to hear or SEE (mentioned that sometimes before) how you set up your pictures Like when you mentioned to Big Cams post of lightning one picture some time ago that you took it n your bathtub with the light of your Iphone. It is really great to hear things like that. And on your photos, you arethe man fenris! @ Smokeblech:I really like your "live" pictures a lot. Your skill has improved as well over time. The last one of Indy is about what I very much would like to do right now. Just go out and relax in the sun!! Quote
Danthebrick Posted May 26, 2010 Posted May 26, 2010 Cool last shot Fenris, are they all Stormtrooper minifigs or is there some CGI, computer jiggery pockery going on?? Quote
MandalorianWig Posted May 26, 2010 Posted May 26, 2010 Thou shalt obey the Empire Wow that looks awesome! Id love that on a canvas in my living room Quote
fenris Posted May 26, 2010 Posted May 26, 2010 (edited) thx... everything real... hi ress version on my flickr stream.. see signature Edited May 26, 2010 by fenris Quote
not-in-use-anymore Posted May 26, 2010 Posted May 26, 2010 everything real... Have you used mirrors to make it twice as large yet? Quote
fenris Posted May 26, 2010 Posted May 26, 2010 (edited) Have you used mirrors to make it twice as large yet? default_devg1.gif proof (no artistic worth - just show off ) Edited May 26, 2010 by fenris Quote
not-in-use-anymore Posted May 26, 2010 Posted May 26, 2010 No, I believe but I was suggesting that to make it look awesomer. Quote
Walter Kovacs Posted May 26, 2010 Posted May 26, 2010 As good as that picture with all the stormies is (and it is very good, fenris), my first thought was "I wihs I had all those stormtroopers." *sniff* Quote
Brickus Posted May 26, 2010 Posted May 26, 2010 After seeing that pic, now I want some Stormtroopers. Quote
