Elroi, you have such fabulous figures!!! The tavern is exceptional (I think I see myself in the corner
but your other figures are also exceptional–WOW!Master Thingol, my camera is digital compact one, a Canon Ixus 117 HS, 12.1 megapixels. And I take pictures with white light, the one of the strip or fluorescent light. I use the Macro option, and some other options of the menu (vivids colours, manually adjusted white balance). I´ll post you the concrete options
Masters Milo and Shadyt: yes, both the miniature and the third image are very powerful. One of my favorite Fellowship miniatures by far
Thanks for your compliments, master Twrich (and you are right, you are present in the darkest corner of the Tavern
)Sorry for the delay, Master Thingol
Here are some easy tips to use in a camera:
– Always use the macro mode, a tripod and the automatic shoot option
– Colours: mode intense (emphasizes colour saturation and contrast)
– White balance: auto
– Iso: auto
– Exposure time: + 0,6 (this is my personal choice, but it depends of the camera, light type, etc
Master Ent, I didn´t saw your comment before! Of course I don´t mind criticisms (contrary, I take advice of all of them).
Maybe the aspect is a little bit artificial (but is not resin, is a kind of plaster, dentist plaster). I think I should have made all the damage or scratches thinner and smaller.
The idea for including the pillar was to have a big surface where put the green tones I wanted to (and not doing it onto Sauron itself), inspiring me in the aspect of Peter Jackson´s Minas Morgul
Thanks for this advices Master Elroi… I will try to use those combination of commands for shooting… I really like the expression of your colors and shadows…..
Thank you, Master Elroi, in addition to paint remarkably well, you know take photos that showcase your work and the cherry on the cake (french expression “la cerise sur le gateau”) : you share all that with us
😉
Like Master Milo, I shall try to configure my own camera with these settingsMistress Sevlag, in Spain we have a similar expresion: “poner la guinda la pastel”
(and thanks for your kind words)But, as very cleverly noticed Master Ori
Ori wrote:I agree with all camera advices except for ISO. In order to avoid “noise” fix it to a low value (depending on the camara). Start with 100 and go up until you find noise.Much of the options I provided depends not only of the camera itself or the light source, but the preferences of the person
Just try and adjust different options.
And another update, M231, the gobling king. I really enjoyed painting this miniature

I definitively love Chris Tubb´s orcs and goblins sculptures
Hi, Javi, how long!
You´re still in Malaga? I´ll stay there several days in Xtmas so, if you want, you can come to my house and take a look to all them
Just tell me
