I decided that I needed something more convenient than bent bits of paper propped up by books to enable me to take better pictures of my miniatures. If I am to be a ‘professional’ at this, I need images that reflect that. I didn’t want to spend a fortune to start with however, so off to amazon I went for a look around. I settled on a small one which should suit my needs for the time being.
It fits inside one of the Kallax units that I have in the hobby room quite nicely, all it took was a little space making and I was good to go. It has two strips of LED lights and is powered by USB – perfect for what I want it for.
I’ve taken an experimental shot of Cypher – a mini I am proud of but have no really good pictures of, and am pleased with the results:
I painted him about eighteen months ago, so whatever I was channelling that day can come back for sure. Finally, you can see his power pack is overheating! He is far from perfect but I am still proud of him.
Expect more new pictures of minis cropping up here and there, it means I can update some pages with far superior images.
Heretic Deb! 
Cool, does it pack up well or do you just leave it set up all the time?

It folds up into a flat box and is held together by press-studs. It’s quite a genius little buy I think.

I might invest… My set up is insane. A roller of paper weighted down at one end and clothes pegged to a backward facing laptop, two bits of white board leaning against the side and a light poised however I can manage near by (a choice of two that are either too big or too small)

Wow, that is bonkers! It only cost me £13 at the most as well so thought it was worth it if it didn’t work.
