Marvel: Crisis Protocol
Basing completed and new pictures with a proper background.
So in preparation for an online painting competition, I wanted to get the bases finished on the models I’ve already completed and get some new pictures taken with a proper background. After trying a black background, I found that it made the highlights on the models wash out too much. Tried it again with a white background and they look much better.
The only complaint I have with a white background is how it seems to highlight every single brush stroke and makes me very self conscious of my paint jobs. I’m trying to decide which of the 3 minis I want to submit for the paint competition. I’m thinking Captain America at the moment as I’m very happy with how his shield came out, but I have some time to think it over so we’ll see.
Definitely nice work on the shield.
As to the pictures not doing your painting justice…welcome to the club. I suspect most of us understand that, unless you have professionals taking pictures (I’m looking at you Corvus Belli!) the picture seldom does the paint job justice. At least that’s what I always tell myself.
