Nice :thumb:

Great shots :)

My updated Kamen Rider OOO collection

The fact that you have a helmet gives me so much jealousy lol

I honestly thought an OOO helmet would be one of the things you'd definitely have :lol

I'm an unemployed college student whose parents can check his credit card anytime they want. I barely can sneak Figuarts into my collection nowadays :lolol

If it helps , it doesn't fit my fat head :lol

Still looks awesome and still fuels my jealousy fire :lol.

Another new backdrop, picks up not very much light at all: http://imageshack.com/a/img801/9852/b59i.jpg

Just realized how similar this pose is... sigh http://imageshack.com/a/img545/3310/z8a8.jpg

That is some amazing work. I'm sorry if someone else has asked you this in the past 200+ pages and I missed it, but how do you have your lightbox set up? I've been trying to get one going, but the black background just doesn't come out right.

Thanks for the kind words!

It's actually a really simple set up, I got this lightbox from Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00...?ie=UTF8&psc=1 but the lights and backgrounds that came with it were not really that great. The lights were yellowish and a bit dim and the backdrops pretty cheap.

I ended up getting two clearance desk lamps from Lowe's recently and two daylight 100w replacement bulbs from Kroger for the lighting, and that made a big difference. The backdrop took some experimenting, the one I used in those two pictures I got today, it's upholstery velvet I bought from Amazon($12 shipped). I had to remove some dust from it(and put it in the dryer for five minute to remove creases) and remove even more dust in photoshop.

I do a lot of corrections in photoshop though, I don't get this clean a result just in-camera.

Here's what the raw image for X looked like btw(though massively scaled down to prevent Den-O from murdering us all, the original raw image was 51mb and 5184x3456pixels):

I very much appreciate the information! The effort you put into taking your pictures and making them look amazing really pays off.

your raw camera results are pretty nice, though. Can I ask what kind of camera you're using?


Awesome!
What kind of camera do you have?

mine is old and just crappy enough I'd like to upgrade, but I know absolutely nothing about cameras.

Hey now, I just try keep it so we can all enjoy it and load the page. Didn't realize I had a rep for murdering :lol

Completely blanking on what I have at the moment :o Have to tell you when I get home. Gotta finish the Tyranno Ranger gallery tonight!

yeah, I've gotta stop being lazy and do a Knight gallery.
but lazy is so much easier.

I have a Canon Rebel t2i. I didn't get it primarily to shoot toys, I use the video mode most of the time for various other projects. It has really good low light capability, because the sensor is fairly large(sensor size is a huge factor in picture quality, don't look at stuff like pixel count necessarily, they can fudge that). The larger the sensor the better it does with less light.

Depending on your budget, look for something with interchangeable lenses, they're doing a lot of cool stuff on micro 4/3 cameras now and they're the lower end of the dslr market.

There's some good point and shoot cameras for even lower, but you might have to do some research on which one would suit you. They all seem to excel at doing one particular thing excellently and other things fairly poorly. They usually have a ton of gimmicks you probably don't need, like GPS tagging or the ability to send instantly to twitter.

yeah, that's a bit more than I was wanting to spend. Thanks, I'll have to do some research (or probably not, cuz that's like work, so I'll probably just make do with what I've got).

Trial is such a cool suit.

Cool.

what is your backdrop!!!??

damn, tbis pic is epic

I made it. And thanks fellas.

Wooo...

WAAACHAAAA!!!

My god Odin is just epic...and I swear the more I mess with the Ryuki figures the more I know we were cut off from some more even cooler story aspects...ahh well

Tell me about it man. Odin is by and far one of the best Figuarts I own.
