Here\'s my first submission to CMON. I\'ve tried photographing this model a few times, and I\'ve never been satisfied with the results. This is as good as I\'ve gotten, and I\'m sick of trying. I\'ve had more trouble with this model than any other I\'ve painted when it comes to pics.

If you can think of ways to improve the picture, I\'m all ears.

I\'m happy with how he turned out. There are definately areas that I think I could do better now, but this is still one of my better jobs to date. I am especially pleased with the camouflage I have done, although it doesn\'t show well in the pictures.

I\'d appreciate any comments on the model, or how to improve the pictures.

I really like this one, has a dirty, gritty feel to it that fits right into the 40k universe.

The flesh and stubble are extremely well done!

What i can see looks good, but it looks almost out of focus. Have you tried increasing the pixel content?
I\'d gop for a more neutral background too.
You could fish for better advice in the photography threads. Welcome aboard.

had a little play on photo shop but if you have the unedited pic i.e straight from the cam I my be able to help more...
is this any better I can\'t say without seeing the actual model..
pm me if you need further help will see what I can do..
as Hubbabuba says try a more neutral colour grey/white for background as the blue is saturating the image also check your white balance settings....

regards the model there is some great looking painting going on there the camo and skin are particularly good.nice work and welcome.
