ShootingtheGalaxy's X-Wing Miniature Photography

By ShootingtheGalaxy, in X-Wing Painting and Modification

Hey guys! New to the board. I don't actually play but I was recently gifted a huge box of these miniatures by someone who quit but enjoys my art. Which is what I wanted to share with you all. I'm a toy photographer (with a focus on Star Wars) and these ships have given me a whole new fun dimension to photograph. So as I continue to sort through the box and come up with scenario's, I'll be adding them to this thread and updating it. I think the next thing I'm going to do is the Rebellion escaping Hoth with the transport ship and x-wings.

Also, if anyone is interested in seeing my other (mostly Star Wars) toy photography, you can find me on instagram @ShootingtheGalaxy (same name as here)

Thank you :D

What method did they use to get the 'lasers being fired'?

Simple photoshop edit. Search "laser png" on google, find the image I want and paste it into the picture. Much of the red ambient light is actual light I shine on the model in anticipation of the edit

Great work! I love the starfield window reflection on the Firespray.

How do you 'air brush out' the Pegs/bases?
