Sgt. Blank Posted June 26, 2011 Share Posted June 26, 2011 From what I can see, it looks like you are well on your way to a nice looking Iron Warriors army. I like the metal on the terminators, looks like you got good coverage without getting the color too bright. The Necromunda models make some good Chaos guardsmen also.

darth_giles Posted August 20, 2011 Share Posted August 20, 2011 Ok, camera use suggestion: Set your camera to "macro" mode- on most point-and-shoot cameras, its the mode that looks like a flower. You might have to get to it through "scene" mode. Also, make sure that the camera registers that its focused on your figures; right now its focusing on your backdrop instead. You might have to move your camera farther away and zoom in.

lokkorex Posted August 20, 2011 Author Share Posted August 20, 2011 it's on macro, something called super-macro. and i keep trying to make it focus, and the above pics were the best out of a dozen i took.

Octavulg Posted August 20, 2011 Share Posted August 20, 2011 Try moving back a bit. Most modern cameras can take such massive pictures you could do it from six inches away and still get decent resolution.

darth_giles Posted August 20, 2011 Share Posted August 20, 2011 Try moving back a bit. Most modern cameras can take such massive pictures you could do it from six inches away and still get decent resolution.Six to eight inches is about right with a macro lens on a POS. My DSLR actually has a minimum range of about 10 inches, but I can optically zoom in to make up the difference. I don't know what the magnification factor is since everything in DSLR-land is measured in millimeters of focal length. Since these are web-resolution pics, you can crop it in a lot and not lose anything meaningful.

lokkorex Posted August 20, 2011 Author Share Posted August 20, 2011 alright, i'll try using normal macro next time at some distance, and then use zoom to get a closer pic. i was supposed to use that way with the latest photos, but discovered the super-macro function, and decided to try it out.
