I got me a lightbox. I was told it’d help take really good photos of my minis.
while undoubtedly, the finished image is a better *photograph* it doesn’t half show up all the areas that need attention! I guess that’s what separates the “good” painters from the “average”? (taking the time to go back and correct the little things)
Pledges this week are to keep on keeping on. I’ve got some electronics-y stuff I need to finish but I also don’t want to spend every waking hour in my workshop, so maybe this week will be when I finally slap some paint onto Jabba The Hutt?
Yep, this photo was taken before my lightbox arrived 😉
Ok, that’s the pledge – to play about with contrast paints and wet blending and all that other stuff I don’t really like doing to get a half-decent colour for Jabba. That done, on with the questions:
1. doing ok. Both terrified that this could all be over and I have to go back to work before I’ve done everything I want to get done and also that it could drag on for months and I’m already going a little stir crazy…
2. I just want to be able to go back to my favourite beach-side cafe and sit outside in the sun amongst others, taking in the view, chatting with friends or reading the papers and just watching the world go by. The nice weather here in the UK is starting to hit home how isolating isolation really is!
3. Not yet, but soon!
