NiceMarmot Posted September 7, 2014 Posted September 7, 2014 If you camera allows it, try zooming in rather than shooting so close. Your focus is on the wall, not the fig. Make sure he is in focus. Lighting is best when outside or if you have a diffused lighting source from two sides. If you are using a flash that can be directed, point it up or to the right/ left. Try not to direct flash on your builds for best results. Or turn on the macro function on the camera so you shoot closeups like that. Some cameras will show you, when you review the photo, where it was focusing; that can be very helpful in ensuring that it was focusing on the correct spot. Or, when reviewing the photo, just zoom in really close and see if it's in focus. Even with a cameraphone, you should be able to get it to focus on the fig, as long as you have enough light. Quote
robuko Posted September 7, 2014 Posted September 7, 2014 (edited) That red dot is right beside my temple of the mad monks on the isle of Arrakheen. It's a reasonably sized settlement with farms to supply the monks. The temple and its grounds take up around 1/3 of the island in the lake. The PGTC is no longer using it as a headquarters but we do maintain a presence in the isle and the guardians never sleep. It's cool to have new neighbours, welcome to the hood.

SarahJoy Posted September 7, 2014 Posted September 7, 2014 NM posted a clarification of issues within the Doctorate program that I think might have been overlooked, and requested feedback. I hope I'm not over-stepping by drawing attention to this. Quote
Yzalirk Posted September 8, 2014 Posted September 8, 2014 (edited) Here is the officila picture for my new siggy! Vem Tabook Let me know if there's anything wrong. EDIT: Here's another picture of him just by himself. Edited September 8, 2014 by Behemoth Quote
TheUtilityBelt Posted September 8, 2014 Posted September 8, 2014 Woah Behemoth! He lookes pretty good as well as his minions (im guessing) ! Quote
Yzalirk Posted September 8, 2014 Posted September 8, 2014 Woah Behemoth! He lookes pretty good as well as his minions (im guessing) ! Thanks! I wouldn't really call them minions (you can if you want) but I'd say either soldiers or troops or something along the lines of that. Quote
Gideon Posted September 8, 2014 Posted September 8, 2014 (edited) Here is the officila picture for my new siggy! Scary sigfig! I don't think I've said it, but that helmet looks great He is a bit out of focus on the upper picture, but the second one is crisp and clear, except for the weapons which are closer to the camera and get blurry.

Well, as long as you can see him pretty good, can one of the pictures be added to the roster for Kaliphlin members? Ska will have to change it when he gets on I assume. Quote

Ska will have to change it when he gets on I assume. Your old fig was quite quick getting in that post so I think Ska will do it soon if he has read this and has time I realized btw after I had already responded in this thread that you have another thread for feedback...I'll try to keep it there in the future. (as I myself get irritated when the guild threads are spammed by feedback on MOCs which have their own thread ) Quote

Gideon Posted September 8, 2014 Posted September 8, 2014 (edited) Two freebuilds guys! A sad time - Thane The first link is not to the first post in the topic, it should be just http://www.eurobrick...howtopic=100008 (and not the ...#entry1997217 at the end). Just making the remark because I've seen this happen a few times recently from different builders. (Cool that EB has reached 100k topics btw! My sigfig intro was #79999 just 1.5 years ago, so 20k topics in just 18 months.) Edited September 8, 2014 by Gideon Quote

SarahJoy Posted September 9, 2014 Posted September 9, 2014 Behemoth is a Nocturnus spy in Kaliphlin, run after him! Such diversionary tactics will not work in Kaliphlin! Our spies are warning us of unrest in Mitgardia; we will not be so easily distracted! Quote
Thomas of Tortuga Posted September 9, 2014 Posted September 9, 2014 Your old fig was quite quick getting in that post so I think Ska will do it soon if he has read this and has time What's the requirement to get in the "characters" post? I think I'm as eligible as some of the other members that are included... Quote
Gideon Posted September 9, 2014 Posted September 9, 2014 What's the requirement to get in the "characters" post? I think I'm as eligible as some of the other members that are included... Tap Ska on the shoulder? (ie send a PM to remind him ) Quote
SkaForHire Posted September 9, 2014 Author Posted September 9, 2014 I said a few pages back that I wanted to update it and asked for everyone who was not on the frontpage to let me know and post a pic of the sigfig. With how rapidly we accumulated pages in the last month, maybe you missed it? Anyway, that is what I need from you -- sigfig picture posted (or linked to) so I can update the front. Quote

I believe you can get mine since it's linked to Flickr but if not, let me know so I can PM you the link. Behemoth is a Nocturnus spy in Kaliphlin, run after him! Now that is not true, your accusations are petty and feeble like that of an old woman's'! Quote

Sorry, I totally missed that post. I wasn't sure if there was some seniority requirement for the frontpage, like there is for the Kaliphlin lion tags. Anyways, I just PMed you a pic. Quote

Well im not on the list. My character is now a thane, would that count toward a lord? Quote
SkaForHire Posted September 10, 2014 Author Posted September 10, 2014 Well im not on the list. My character is now a thane, would that count toward a lord? Your character is on the list (the one with pictures) High Lords are those who have been here a whole year and have participated in two challenges. Quote
SkaForHire Posted September 10, 2014 Author Posted September 10, 2014 Well I think I have everyone updated. I moved Nightstalker and Sir James (runmymouth) to the inactive/retired list, and I think there might need to be a few more from the list, but I didn't want to move anyone that I was unsure if they had gone inactive or not.

SkaForHire Posted September 10, 2014 Author Posted September 10, 2014 I was thinking the same thing. Her profile doesn't display last logon, so not sure when she was here last. Quote
