What are you doing today hobbywise?

Good news on my side, yesterday I managed to prime a few bases using my airbrush (I am sloooooowly getting the hang of it with a bit of help by my brother) and today I will do a little bit of basecoating.
I still don't feel particularly well so I won't be able to do much, but that's a lot more than doing nothing at all.

Another day of painting the Troglodon, Some final details on the Oracle and the base needs doing.
Might write a 2000 point list later, I know I may not be able to go and take part tomorrow. Another thing is me writing a Seraphon list, I don't have the big block of units *checks notebook* Yeah I have 30 Skinks with clubs/blowpipes, 32 with Javelines and shields. 27 Saurus with spears, 22 with Clubs.
Need to count the Guard but got quite an amount now, many thanks to Slannta! Got other models also.

Thanks again, I think it's just I haven't got a proper set up yet. I have to sit around waiting for the right moment to take a picture where the detail can be picked up and colours won't be washed out. Another being that I haven't got a proper camera yet, all pics are taken by a phone camera.

Do you have an outside porch or a folding table?
 
Lord-Marcus said:
So no back or front yard?

Also, awesome that you own a conservatory

Well I do have a back and front garden, it just gets windy here sometimes and it rains often (welcome to the UK) So I prefer to take pictures inside and that part of the house has the most light.
If I recall it was a thing for the entire road to have conservatories, we used to have a wooden one but then got a second-hand conservatory as the wooden one was starting to leak and fall down.

Ah, I'm in the US.

I also might be mistaking what you mean by a conservatory
 
Lord-Marcus said:
It's usually associated with gardening and greenery

:a room with a glass roof and walls, attached to a house at one side and used as a greenhouse or a sun parlor.

Ah so it's quite similar then, my family sit out there when the weather is nice. I also keep my cactus plants out there too (I only have two)
Just the right place to go a take the pictures, there is a lot of light that comes through but there will still be that slight shadow.

That make sense. Have you thought about a lightbox and using flash. Amazon have decent ones for $20 USD or so

I will have to have a look later, I see others take amazing pictures and the ones don't really pick up much of the models colours or details.

I'll see what I can do as far as a tutorial soon.

On another note, today's plans are murky:

I have to run errands after work.

I'm hoping to finish the tomb guard and prime the commission figures
 
What are you doing today hobbywise?

Video games count as a hobby right? I went to the gym... does fitness count as a hobby? I might watch some Samurai Jack as well.
