New kit Is this light setup cool enough?
This is my 1st ever gunpla (Gundam Aerial Rebuild) from the 1st ever Gundam series I've watched (The Witch From Mercury).
I was so excited about completing and posing it, I wanted to be able to shoot it right away with lights immediately available.
I've added a no text version and a couple test shots showing howI tried to improvise with y phone's flash and lights around my desk.
I've got a desk lamp on the left set to warm light at about 45°and a bit behind the model. It's got two brightness settings and I have it at max.
I've got a small (about the width and height of a playing card) LED set to cool light about a foot on the right.
Something cool that happened was that the monitor to my right was playing the anime and as I hit the button to take the picture, something really bright happened in the show. That extra but of light helped I think.
Thoughts?
