Old Star Wars toys are definitely not my nicest figs, but I do love posing them in gay sex.

>>1408
Also I lost my actual camera. A fairly archaic phone is fine too, I suppose.

>>1409
Even with a bad camera, photo shop can still help out a fair bit.

ありえな～い!

I'm a bit behind on my dusting

>>1417
might wanna look into display cases.

>>1417
yikes

>>1417
Oh wow.

>>1410
Would if I knew anything about how to use Photoshop for actual photo work.

I always take forever with getting around to photographing my new figs...

>>1619
Just wondering: all that stuff she has for reading, does it say/show something intelligible? I mean, like for being able to tell if it's one of her Maschera fanfics or one of her original doujins...

Anyway: nice. I wait with great expectation the release of the Kotobukiya "Memories" Kurenko on december.

>>1620
No, nothing on the inside, what she's holding is just something I made to look like a book from some scrap paper and one of the stickers she comes with.
The doujins/fanbooks she comes with are just two white rectangular flat blocks you place stickers over.
One of those stickers reads: 'Encyclopedia of Maschera'
the other reads 'Crystal ball' with subtext that's almost imposable to read.

Well, it looks really good.

>>1622
yeah, that's cool

After lots of trouble, in the end I got it from AmiAmi (where I should've go in the first place). VEry happy with it.

Real pretty, better than expected.
PROTIP: be careful the tide-thingy on her chest.

One bad fur day, the worst happened. Felt like shit... A few days later, in calm, I managed to glue it back together almoust unnoticeably.

"Ohh~"

>>1627
Damn dude what happened?

>>1630
I needed to move one of those butterfly mountings, miscalculated my moves and hit the figure with my elbow; I yelled really bad and really loud (I was such an imbecile)... Anyway: it's fixed, now.

Relatedly...

>>1621
>'Encyclopedia of Maschera'
lol. If I remember correctly she wrote that one herself, together with another encyclopedia to understand her own work, wich she lent to a pissed off Kirino...

She's like an average Eva-geek.

Hey /fig/...
Do these fair ladies here count as /fig/?
Cause I can tell: they sure are awesome.

>This is a general merchandise board for all collectibles.

Seems within guidelines

I'm starting to wish I had a better camera.
photoshop can only do so much...

I wanted to take a pic of them with a sky background, but didn't want to leave my home to do so, for obvious reasons.
and every attempt sucked.

Is it a Dengeki magazine figure?

I wonder what it would take for mugi to catch on the way woody did...

She's here...

Keeping alive my catholic houselhold.

She's here.

...very pretty.

>>1822
I just wanted to say I find your Rei fig absolutely gorgeous. Makes me want to buy figs.

>>1823
Thank you; though collecting, as it's implied, often becomes a vice...
However: if you ever go and look for this one Rei ballerina, be careful to pick Kotobukiya's one and not Bandai's (it's way more expensive but definately justified).

I'm glad I made this decision...

The box of changes and other accessories.

>>1826
Wow that's lewd

>>1828
how do you figure?

>>1828
You need to lay off the porn if you see Ika in a lewd light.

>>1829
>>1830
The swimsuit, it's kinda transparent... and her bottom part is kinda sticking out...

Homu-Homu effect started...

...I'm gonna have to start cleaning out and making some room, if I mean to continue getting figs (have 4 more on pre-order ATM).

My fav.

way to much time on my hands...

I think I'm one step closer to getting professional looking images, but not there yet...
Maybe I need more lights... hmm..

Still, I'm having fun taking pics with this thing now.

>>1901
It may have more to do with the fact that professional pics are taken from specially well finished models, and not mass produced ones; or at least from versions oriented only to japanese market, and not the international ones...

Just my guess.

>>1902
yeah that's undoubtedly true.
And of course having a high quality camera is another part of it.
still, I think I can do a bit better with some work.

>>1902
Yeah the lighting looks great but something about the painting is off. Not a lot he can do about that

Well I guess it can't be helped...

<3

I've now got the urge now to photograph everything I own with this light box.

hmm.. I wonder if this is appropriate for this thread...

Course it is... and you made it (and the site), anyway.

Something I forgot to add.
I believe official images of figs are usually photoshopped to hell.
Not just color correction, removal of dust small scratches fixing paint imperfections and so on.

I thought the lighting was good before, but then I started noticing shadows on the front of some of the figs, clearly I needed another light sort coming from in front of the item.

Now that I've got four lamps in place, two on the sides, one on the top and one in front, I think the lighting is as good as it's gonna get.
Any brighter and I might go blind while taking these pics.

Though, I can't help but think they still look very amateurish.

This one was taken with just the three lamps that I had been using up till now for recent photos.

>>1928
I think I like this a bit more. We can feel the volume better.

GATHERING version.
Prettier than expected...
wich means Saya's gonna be awesome.

I need to find her a better place...
i.e. over a wolf and not a fox.

And it starts...

...again...

I don't think I've already said it explicitly, how very, very, VERY much I dig on Homura and the entire Madoka series. It totally broke my heart... beautifully.

Still a ways to go...

>>1949
from micro to macro...
Very nice.

box...

bases and accesories (notice: Metaru~pa!)
