    Great MS435 Gildor – the base is very good, but you shouldn’t forget about Sauron, Gil-Galad and Isildur! Photographing miniatures can be a pain – I recommend an SLR with a dedicated macro lens, and a few different light sources. On another thread somewhere, someone (sorry – I know I know who it is, am just a bit dopey) mentioned using calendar or poster backgrounds which can work well – although you should make sure the background is a little out of focus unless it’s really good to keep the interest in the picture on the miniature) – and the towel as a simpler background is also a good option (go Gavin :)). If you can, use a tripod with a slow shutter speed and the natural light/effect lights, rather than a flash.
