Post Shoot your Kaiju with THIS !!
Just wanted to talk about this great photog equipment I got a couple o weeks ago. I just got a chance to play with it a bit and I must say that my pics have never looked better. It's a complete kit (less camera). The Ebay link gives all the details of what you get. Just set up your digital camera a bit and you can get great results! I used and older HP 635 photosmart digital camera. The biggest item you can put in the tent is the Doguma figure I just shot below. That was the first pic I took using this kit.


I got this kit from Ebay with a best offer of $65.00. I think It's worth every penny.

Hmm, I like the results. The Doguma seems really bright, though.

How are those lamps? Do you need to set your white balance to the incandescent bulb setting when you take those photos- I've noticed that that can skew certain colors.

Well, for what it's worth, that price is pretty good for that whole package. I must have spent a bit more in building my own setup when you factor in the tripod.

I bought a light tent kit (w/lights and a small tripod) from that guy a few months ago. His service and the speed of delivery were excellent. No question about it, this is a great eBay seller.

However, he offers many such products, and you'll want to take into consideration the size of the toys you want to photograph, and whether or not you want to take group shots or individual. The kit I bought was a different one. It's great and portable, but I probably should have shelled out for something larger. Anyway, nice photos ... I'll take a closer look at that kit you bought.

Looks great. Nice touch with the reflective base too, that really adds something special.
