Glyos Photography Q & A

[kranix]

Hey there, everyone!

Since a lot of this section of the board relies upon photographs of builds, it might be a good idea to share out some details about cameras, lightboxes, and other behind-the-scenes information about how we set up shoots of our builds.

How do you take pictures of your Glyos stuff? Have any tips and tricks for how to get really good photos? Share what you've got here!

I just thought I would share some of the items that I have found useful as photo backgrounds and display bases:

Kotobukiya Mechanical Chain Base

These have been around for a while in various configurations. Unfortunately, they no longer seem to offer the plain version that I use in my photos below.



Wave H Hangar

These come in both octagon and cube forms. I've found the octagon base to be useful as a backdrop for single figure shots. I use the cube base in my display cabinet. Both present a lot of options for configuration, but the downside is that these bases take a while to build.
