Title: Need suggestions for Group Model Photos 1/32nd scale
Post by: RAGIII on June 23, 2019, 04:13:21 AM

I have been asked in the past to post Group Photos of My Albatros and Fokker DVII Builds. So I took a couple of VERY QUICK photos of the DVII's to give an idea of what I WANT to do. Any and all suggestions for background, arrangement of Models, etc. are greatly appreciated. One other thing, used My Phone for the samples  ;D

Since you need a lot of real estate for a group pic, maybe a plain bedsheet over a table will be a good surface that won't be distracting?

You may not be able to photograph more than four at a time in order to get closeup enough to see the details.

Consider using a darkened room with controlled lighting on the subjects.  That way the far background will not be visible or in focus.

Just a few ideas.
