Loving the new episode! Your quality has improved a lot, too.

Here's a tip for future model photography: shoot the models with a very bright light source aimed at them and use manual adjust to keep the picture from washing out (if you're using a digital camera). It helps to create the feel of the Original Trilogy's cinematography because it creates a high contrast between the illuminated areas and the shadows.

Thanks guys. I usually do the photos inside and get a flash because of the black backdrop. I then adjust the brightness and contrast in a photo editor program to keep the background as black as possible without losing too much model detail, but it is all trial and error. Having the background black helps to blend in other elements. The main delay in Episode III was the fact I needed to paint up a GR-75 transport!

I am hoping to do a Death Star episode soon...

I have a "Womp Rat" origins episode written up awaiting pics.

Happy Holidays from New Zealand!
