this is amazing, from figure to base, absolutely luv it! Also agree on what you said about if you cant see the model dont rate it! Always annoys me! Anyway fab work, very inspirational!
i'm sorry if the quality of the pictures leave someone unsatisfy, but i'm a painter and not a professional photographer so even i keep try to find the best way to record the result of my work sometimes i must admit my limits in photography anyway..
but as some of you already wrote,it's about painting and not photography so if you wish to watch those minitures "live" as they are supposed to be seen and "judged"i suggest you to come more often to international contest as i often do and you won't be disappointed or tricked by photography....
anyway in many case so much talk about picture quality of a subject sound to me like another excuse to downgrade it while the real reason still unknow...
if you can't see correctly the miniature or you belive the picture it's too dark what's the meaning of grade it at all? imho
