I have a T3i and some lenses that I kept from my older T3. I am just learning about the program function and auto depth of field. Some of those guys on ewe tube are a great help. next step, budget umbrella, light stand or mini studio.

I'm still trying to figure out the depth of field with my Canon Rebel .....

I use a tripod and aperture priority mode set at F32. It helps if you have a remote shutter release to avoid shake.

Dang...I've been setting it on A-Dep which I thought was aperature control. I need to set it to AV. Thanks Andy (finally found which file I buried my operator manual in)

Yep, Av is the setting but you will find the speed that it selects in a typical dungeon setting to be too slow to enable hand held shooting

Good work!

Not the best photos around but I shoot all of mine outdoors in indirect sunlight so I avoid the need for artificial lighting. Sometimes I use the tripod but mostly do handheld so my apertures aren't as small as Andy's. Camera is a Canon 7D with a Sigma 50mm f/1.4 lens. My background is just a sheet of white poster paper from an old elementary school project that my daughters brought home.

A 1/72 Mistel 1 combination from the Italeri boxing. Decals from kit and spares to replicate a Mistel of 2./KG 101 seen at St Dizier in June 1944.

The Bf 109 seems to have lost its tail wheel somewhere!

Cheers

Nice one Steve.

Beauty Steve, nice job on the small scale mottling.

About a month ago I found 4 figures (3 Paratroopers and a German) so I put them to use in a small diorama I call "Generic Paratrooper Diorama WW2." I used a "Condensation Catcher" as a base and formed the mud with hot glue. The Grass is shredded felt and the house is scrap balsa. I hope it's not too bad and GASP! Sam's got a camera that can Macro!? For once, some decent pictures. Anyways, here it is.

Had a little fun with the last picture.

Looking good Sam, maybe you've found your modelling genre. If your interested in dioramas, check out these sites for materials....

Not bad at all.

Gnomey · Oct 3, 2016

Good work!

Thanks guys! I might try armor next, that would be fun to do a diorama of. I'm very happy with how it came out, I honestly thought I was doomed to never having any luck with models but 1/72 figures are the way to go it seems.

I finished this red egg last year. Hope you like it.
It is the 1:32 from Meng. The engine and the Cockpit got a little bit pimped.
Detail sets from Eduard and wheels from Barrcuda.
