Guest PetrolGator Posted June 30, 2014 Report Posted June 30, 2014 So, I've given up messing with my camera until I get a new lens, ergo iPhone pictures.
Spruemeister Posted June 30, 2014 Report Posted June 30, 2014 You just make stuff come alive. All you need is a sound card in the base. Another fine work of art, Chris. Rick L. 1
Guest PetrolGator Posted June 30, 2014 Report Posted June 30, 2014 Heh. Thanks. I've been told I need better pictures. The lighting does suck and I'll see what I can do.
WildBill50 Posted June 30, 2014 Report Posted June 30, 2014 Great job Chris. What did you think of the kit overall? It looks great on your "ocean". You have to show us how you made that base. Very cool. Bill
Guest PetrolGator Posted July 1, 2014 Report Posted July 1, 2014 Thank you all. I'll be posting some better lit pictures today. I'm hoping that additional lighting will lead to far less graininess.
shiplover Posted July 1, 2014 Report Posted July 1, 2014 on the new pics make sure the primary lighting is to the sides or top or behind you but not behind the ship cameras read light and if it is directly behind the ship the ship may look more like a shadow of it self hiding details nice build
ghodges Posted July 9, 2014 Report Posted July 9, 2014 Good looking build Chris! That bow wave is killer! GIL
shiplover Posted July 10, 2014 Report Posted July 10, 2014 lighting is better now if you can just get one of those sailors you have on the ship to take some close-ups
Gaston Posted July 18, 2014 Report Posted July 18, 2014 Great work! Much better colors in the second set of photos! What scale and what brand? Gaston
Mark Deliduka Posted July 19, 2014 Report Posted July 19, 2014 Another spectacular build Chris! What an amazing maritime modeler you are! I bow in the presence of greatness. :smiley32:
Guest PetrolGator Posted July 19, 2014 Report Posted July 19, 2014 Great work! Much better colors in the second set of photos! What scale and what brand? Gaston This is the much maligned Hasegawa kit. I used some of the Eduard PE set and a lot of Rainbow, Lion Roar, and a smattering of Alliance Modelworks parts. I also scratched the masts and various smaller details. The kit has some major scale issues, but it was cheap ($25 for the kit, Eduard PE, and brass barrels.) I used this kit to practice some sea base techniques and some weathering. I was.... moderately successful with the weathering, but I'll definitely need some darker pin washes on my next kit. Do you post on MW.com? I've seen your username on there.
