toby maguire is handsome
>>5772399
I like the lighting and the general motive of the photo
>>5772399
At least it didn't fall down from that height.
Just some phone crap
>>5772431
Toby, please.

someone said I should work on my posing, so I've been working on it. i've been looking at voguing for inspiration. pls r8
>>5773414
I like it. I like the shadow too, gives a nice view of her robotic curves. Wish I would've gotten myself a Daibadi Aigis, only got my chogokin.
>>5773414
OMFG i need to paint and assamble mine
>>5773370
Nice composition and close up, like the scaled plants.
>>5773414
Crispy and clear, good lighting, but yeah I would say Posing needs a bit of work!
>>5773444
Super clean macro shot, would only say for photos try and hide the stand, unless you don't care in which case you are good! Lol.

I love nature shots, and the trees actually look appropriately sized here.
>>5773617
I like how the eye lined up.
/r/ing unique toys sworder (sandstorm) with oscar meyer decals
>>5773666
How do you get such crisp, clean shots? You have a good camera and lighting I'm guessing?
>>5773764
Not that anon but general rules for crisp photos are good focus, good lens, iso 100, good lighting, and use tripod
>>5773472
Thanks man and yeah I'm okay with my stands showing in some shots and I sometimes edit them out when I feel the need to.
>>5773764
Bruh, I take garbage shots with some lamps, a three year old cell phone, and mash buttons in gimp until it stops looking ugly. Here's the original.
>>5773808
I can relate.
>>5773800
She looks very serene. Liking how intimate the shot is.
>>5773666
Nice chains. It's a goofy but fun picture.
>>5773617
I regret not picking her up, your shot really highlights her eye.
I've been wanting to do a night shot of the figuarts scout trooper, maybe if it stops raining I'll do it tonight.
unrelated pic for now.
>>5773852
Setting up this backdrop and getting the right angle for this is a pain.
>>5773871
I have no idea what the weird crystal thing is but I like it
>>5773852
>>5773871
I like the world you've built here, interesting stuff
>>5773857
Love me a good shield throw, nice and dynamic
>>5773947
This feels very cinematic, which is kind of hilarious considering the goofy subject of Kermit Indy.
>>5774237
Yes, my Lady is discolored. Bought used.
>>5773852
Thanks for the compliment man. Its one of my favorite and considerably best photos I've taken. Also really like how your new dio looks in action.
>>5773852
is that a pic of a forest in the background or did you really take the backdrop with you in the woods?
>>5774550
That's definitely an image in the background, the lighting in the foreground does not match that of the forest.
>>5774576
Irregular distortion of the mesh behind her. It's the woods, she's inside a window, in the shade, and there's a window screen between her and the outside world.
>>5774481
I love the lighting in this. I have always wanted that drossel but i heard it sucked.
>>5774779
>>5774779
>I have always wanted that drossel but i heard it sucked.
Might be because that's not Drossel.
crappy phone pics incomming
>>5775040
>>5775048
>>5773947
It's the magical arrow for his bow. Liking that Kermit picture by the way!
>>5774237
Thanks! I'm working on a monster to dwell in it. The discoloration on Lady adds some character to her though. It's a nice violet hue.
>>5774481
Cheers! You should try some photo backdrops since from the looks of it, you prefer taking shots in a familiar environment and you have a decent camera.
>>5774550
It's just a photo backdrop with a lamp overhead. I do out for the majority of my shoots now of days. Pic related is an example with angled lighting.
>>5774779
Thanks m8 and yeah like the other anon said she isn't a Drossel. She a character from Accel World called Scarlet Rain.
>>5775058
Yeah I've been thinking of using photo backdrops or using my computer for some shots. Still trying to find my own "brand/style" of photography so I might try it soon.
>>5775083
I've found /wg/ to be a treasure trove for backdrops. It also helps that most of the inspiration I take comes from old fantasy art I enjoy, of which /tg/ provides ample amounts of inspiration for.
I'm sure you'll come into your own style eventually. The Shinki pictures are pretty distinct since they tend to be more heavily accessorised and thus distinguishable. Maybe you should try picking out a favourite figure, adding an accessory and using it as your "trademark".
>>5775058
Damn, thats a pretty nice photo there.
>>5775053
She looks cute in this one.
Here and here >>5775304 we have Yukikaze doing some scouting.
>>5774991
Well I'll be damned, that some really nice picture quality.
A-Are edit allowed... ?
>>5775317
Here's non edited one (except for the eyes that is)
>>5775317 Cool robots dont look at explosions.
Also, is very hot out here, always have a bottle with water when you are outside.
>>5775304
>>5775312
Thanks! Where's the rest of your little lady's crew? A soldier shouldn't spot alone!
>>5775317
>>5775320
These look really neat anon. Also, I think edits are fine especially when they accentuate a good detail of the subject in question.
>>5775352
Tell me about it. It's 37 degrees Celsius outside with 80% humidity here.
>>5775352
Dont worry, Eika was there in case something happened.
The two of them had a good day in the park.
>>5775320
>>5775361
Well then, here's some more, thanks Anon.
>>5775454
>>5775457
>>5775460
That's enough for today
>>5775302
Thanks for the words of encouragement man. I just looked at /wg/ and really liked some stuff there. Will work on backdrops and see how things go.
In other news I just got my June order in the mail today and I look forward to taking pics of Iron Man soon.
>>5775564
Reality is a ton less glamorous than that my friend. It's a simple light box with some Walgreens photos.
>>5775627
Said backdrop which I've used countless times. Polite sage.
I don't know if anybody here pays attention to the game I run on /tg/ but the last few episodes have been a ton of fun to set up and shoot, even if the shots don't look as technically impressive as the stuff from past episodes.
These dinos are really fun to shoot.
Can't remember if I posted any of these already, but these are from the final episode of The Man With the Red Pants.
These obviously make heavy use of Photoshop.
I made the rain effect myself, so it's pretty rough.
Depending on monitor/brightness settings, this one either looks kind of nice, or really awful. No middle ground.
>>5775317
Yeah. Let me see what you can do
>>5775776
Shock troops look cool out in the wild too
>>5775761
>>5775765
>>5775770
>>5775772
I've seen your thread on my occasional sojourns to /tg/! I never participate but just lurk the thread usually. You have great composition and use of colours which really help breathe life into those scenes. This is coming from someone who isn't fond of Lego photography typically.
>>5775454
>>5775457
>>5775460
>>5775462
These are some nice edits anon, I like the dark and dramatic lighting, also the backdrops are pretty neat too. Did you make them?
>>5775784
Quick, post the worst /toy/ photo you've ever taken.
by the lake (erie)
>>5775796
Holy shit that's terrifyingly realistic
>>5775793
This could almost be a still from a movie if the visual cues were a little less telling
>>5775787
Thanks!
I guess this is only sort of thread-related, but looking at >>5775457
do you ever make use of UV light? I made a guide for the Lego General about how I use UV bulbs to get some cool effects for the space miner episodes.
>>5775083
oh yeah shit i was thinking of another robot. i love yume, i wish i could get her.
>>5775781
Thats what I was going for! Nice to know it was conveyed right.
>>5775833
Well, the re-issue of Yume is due out in November so you could get her then. Or if you want to try for Mel who comes out later this month.
>>5775905
>when there's a tiny fiber or hair in the shot that you don't notice until long after you post it
I know that feel man
I know it well
>>5775908
Yeah, I noticed it and just said to hell with it. Doesn't bother me as much as it used to now either. It still does but not as much.
>>5775427
My last photo of today.
I need more free time to do this.
>>5775793
I kick myself for not picking up the other troopers
Posted this in the last thread but at a huge resolution. I give to you Sailor Freddie Mercury
>>5773472
Man, it's been a while since I've seen Acid Rain stuff. I should get another. I should also pull mine out.. He's been in storage for a while now.
>>5775796
This is actually very frightening looking. Great job capturing such a spoopy atmosphere!
>>5776071
Why do you make him hold his shield upside-down?
I tried, I think I have the wrong camera for night shots. my phone just doesn't cut it
>>5776181
A lot of kite shields(I believe most) were tethered to the arm in such a way, that the part we often think of as the top is oriented in the same direction as the hand.
Some did have it oriented across though
>>5775796
Add in some red food coloring on the snow and you get extra spooks
>>5775787
Yeah the backgrounds are made with cardboard boxes and textures are printed on paper and then glued on top of the carboard boxes, it's cheap but it does the job
>>5775796
I really dig your work anon, your toys don't feel like tiny pieces of plastic in the nature, great job
>>5775790
It looks okay as a thumbnail
>tfw phone is 8mp and no camera
So many amazing pictures here, I love these threads. I really need to get around to buying a cheap point and shoot but even those are expensive.
>>5775796
Holy shit, this is amazing.

Skeletons are friendly... right?
what size would be ideal to post photos in?
Also, whats the best way to resize my photos into said size with Gimp?
>>5776800
Love it. Those swords come with the skeletons? They fit perfectly
>>5775793
this is so fucking perfect man
>>5776904
Below 1500 for 4chan posting though high sizes are alright provided the camera is top quality though it would be a pain to load with some computers/phones.
>>5776909
you mean 1500 x 1500px?
>>5776800
i like how many figures you managed to fiddle into one photo without letting it look like a clusterfuck. And btw the threadtheme isnt actually about friendly photos, but about friendly replies to other photos in the thread.
>>5776776
Thats high quality man! really digging the lighting, playing with blur and stuff. really good!
>>5776774
The black bars on top and bottom really give it the cineastic atmosphere. i like it a lot! Nice backdrop and posing too!
>>5776912
1500x1000 to be precise.
>>5776071
i like this
Playing with Ash
>>5777117
incredible. how did you do this?
>>5776659
FUCK I wanted that figure so badly
>>5777246
Sandman, Mistery in the theatre, awseome!
>>5777117
Yeah how did you do that? That's awesome
>>5777246
Who is this? You don't see to many figures with gas masks.
>>5777626
That's the Golden Age Sandman yo
>>5776931
With that quiet fig that photo is easily worth over $6000

>>5777117
Real nice pic Anon ! Great job
>>5777737
you are the reason i just took my toys outside today. Enough said?
>>5777626
i love the posing. it really tells a "story" just from their bodylanguage alone. well done!
>>5777246
neat figure. what is it?
>>5778359
thanks
When I learned there was a Weird Al figure out, I had to get one
Still loving this green screen.
>>5777239
>>5777555
>>5777626
Literally the easiest effect! Basically had a fire in a portable barbecue thing, burned roughly about a dictionary sized stack of paper like bills and stuff I needed to shred. Waited till the ashes cooled a bit and mashed and stirred the ashes until they were fine.
So first thing I did was the attached shot last night, so set up my camera on a tripod, and got my misses to hold the button down on continuous shot mode. At the same time a ton of pictures were taken, I was flinging the burning ash everywhere, didn't even realise sparks and shit would come out lol.
Anyway, after I got my shots I just dumped the rest of the ashes all over the scene. The next morning I set up the figures in the next scene, running etc. Put camera on tripod and continuous shot mode again - but this time just blew the ash towards the figure as the continuous shots go off, blow about 5 times while the photos were being taken and then looked through and chose the best shots to keep.. Wow that was a mouthful!
>>5777343
You can still order it off BBTS anon
Game over, man. GAME OVER.
>>5780201
>>5780201
Nice shot man. I like it, it pleases my eyes. Very cinematic.
>>5780243
>>5780276
tried to mimic this kind of kill, just from a different perspective, didn't turn out very well it seems.
also, its actually not by garden, just fake grass, thanks anyways!
The LUTs look very good too!
>>5780292
Oh yeah I didn't realise he was holding on his hatchet, that's my bad.
pic related is how it looks without any color correcting at all
>>5780201
>>5780203
Aright so that's what LUT's are for, I found them in Photoshop but had no idea
>>5780302
how do you manage to get the toy in your photo in such a detail focus? Everything thats not in the focus is super blurry. I want the same effect.
Pic related, not mine but the same thing with the focus.
>>5780372
lower aperature (ie f1.8, f2.8) give a more blury background, also known as bokeh. The amount you can get depends on the lens you use
>>5780354
Neato
you lads checked out the Prisma app? Wonder how it'd look with toys.
>>5775796
its kind of like "the village" isnt it with stand out red cloaks in the dull woods.
>>5780201
>>5780203
>>5780302
Liking your original creation and the shots you took with them. Feels like something out of a stop motion movie you'd find at an indie film festival.
>>5780828
The "Heisenberg" filter gives off a sort of Mignola sketch vibe to me. Thanks for telling us!
>>5781124
I'd hang that shit on my wall.
>>5781301
Holy shit.
Bretty cool
>>5781363
>>5781376
i love these, is this app only on the apple app store? i cant find a working on on android.
also i got an upgrade kit for my ROTF megatron for his cannon arm and shit its cool. it helps so much. there is another arm upgrade for the small arm that is next on my to get list.
>>5781441
i heard some where that a company was working on an upgrade for his head. i was wondering if this is true?
i need to pick up a cheap phone to do this shit.
>>5781443
>>5781441
only on apple shit at the moment, but apparently they're making an android version soon
>>5781448
>>5781448
>>5781451
>>5781450
ah ok. kinda sucks. but oh well. i also got some stuff for ratchet.
Anyone with the Prisma app able to show off how lewd posing looks with it?
>>5780828
Wow the app is absolutely fantastic. Thank you
>>5781301
>>5781376
This app does a surprisingly good job of conversions.
>>5780828
Just tried to download it. It somehow just opens up a russian search engine. Nothing else. What the fuck.
Last one for the night. Trying a Mignola inspired set.
>>5781700
What toy is this?
Holy shit, this app
>>5782026
Read the thread.
>>5782026
>does not read threads before posting
>>5782026
Prisma. It's an app in the apple App store.
>>5772399
>them pixels
>cellphones
no
>>5781720
i would totally read this comic.
>>5781301
What app is that?
>>5782078
Its called Prisma. Currently only on the apple store. Tons of fun.
I'm a little mixed on how this turned out
>>5782031
Oh its only un the appple app store.
Ok, thanks.
>>5772631
Bad focus.
A general rule is that if you're not sure if you got the photo or not, take multiple with different flash settings, and with macro on and off.
Otherwise you've found a really nice texture, there.
>>5781720
ive seen your images alot but one thing they have in common is you like to use this character alot, howcome?
Doing some tests with my new light box.
I loved Sherlock Hound
>>5776907
Thanks!

Alright last one from that app from me
I'm legit fucking jelly about all these prisma pictures. The android version can't come soon enough.
>>5783129
I have no idea whats going on in this pucture but damn thats amazing man.
glad I stopped by in this thread. This app is pretty nice.
Is there some sort of Prisma plugin for photoshop? Or is this thing too new?
I've been wanting something that stylize my unrealistic toy photos and backgrounds for the longest time. The filters I've currently got don't feel quite right.
>>5781727
Thanks! Vibrant backdrops tend to make for some interesting effects with the app.
>>5781759
A custom I put together.
>>5781991
Raiden's eye really captures the feel of a manga illustration.
>>5782013
I like this one a lot.
>>5782062
Have you read "The Marquis" by Guy Davis, he does interiors for Mike Mignola's Hellboy and the story is pretty good.
>>5782959
It's a custom I did of an OC I've written some short stories for. Safe to say he's my favourite figure given how often I take photos of him, it helps that his helmet creates a very noticeable shadow around his face.
>>5783127
I like this one, feels like a first order propaganda piece.
>>5783446
Yes, raiden's eye really makes the picture.
I hope they get to make a filter that converts things to a yoji shinkawa style.
>>5783139
Thanks it's just my megablok guys sitting on a hill after I kicked up some dust.
I take it back I'll post some more
>>5782124
Thank you, Mr Morphine
>>5783826
Welcome man, and another great shot might I add.
Best app ,skelly king

You're breaking my heart anon
>>5784920
top fucking kek
>>5784899
Play arts kai Burning Man and Tretij Rebenok
>>5779908
This is good Shady War, great work with the scenary, the mud, the ligth and the position of the figures, the spark effect is real or for computer?
>>5784627
I'm going to have to agree wit this guy. Though not as rude.
The filters are over done and are hard to look at. And just look bad in general. But that's just my opinion.
If you have a shitty camera, I'd rather look at potato images than these over developed photoshop filters.
>>5786075
New thread, please. I'd like to post one or two that I've taken recently.
>>5786080
I'd start it myself, but I don't have a photo that's good enough to be an OP for a toy photo thread.
>>5785892
They're just some short lived fun, I really doubt it'll show up much after this
>>5785892
>Though not as rude.
ah, summerfags
