Toy Photography
Over the last year I've been getting more in to toy photography, which has become a fairly popular sub-genre. I havent been able to do as much as I want because its very time intensive in terms of dioramas, occasional photoshop, etc. I did manage to do my most recent 3 last week (Mummy, Elvira/mummy, and Rock Vader). It presents a little more of a challenge working on a smaller scale and sometimes with shiny textures (that should be matte in real life).
Either way, Its a fun little way to pass some time, and make use of my vast collection of figures.

Nice! I love toy photography. Sgt. Slaughter vs. Cobra
Not mine of course, but those LEGO Star Wars photos are super awesome.

Notwithstanding my dislike of that film, it's a cool photo. How'd you get that background shot?

Thank you, I found a stock photo of a Birds Eye view of the street. Took some Birds Eye shots of some civilian figures “walking” and composited everything (but my photoshop skills need a lot of work).

That's a great solution. The way the photo looked, I assumed that you printed it out and physically placed it behind the figures.

Appreciate it. If I had a large enough printer to do it. I would have. Sometimes I use my TV as a “video wall” and create effects that way. Which is nice because it keep everything “in camera”. The less photoshop work the better in my opinion.
