Very small scale models, made of balsa and pine wood. Thursday, August 17, 2006. Tiny Astronaut figure - Step 8 (Photography). I got some emails requests on how to photograph such a tiny models. I could say the technique is all in the lights, but the camera settings has a lot to do with the results also. I got some ideas from the following sites. Light box / light tent.

For this base I've chosen a more conservative green look. Here's the underside of the base, once the felt is stick to it. I acquire my rolls of felt at Lee Valey. Go to Final pictures. Or back to Step 6.
