Channeling my inner nerd

January 2, 2012 - By halleday

I’ve started out the year by working on some more miniature terrain.

Nobody is actually using it for wargames at our house but I love creating it anyway.

Making something out of nothing but leftover bits.

See how this project started out…

Nothing but junk that was saved from the landfill. Yes, I know some of it could have been sent to the recycle center but this was much more satisfying.

Since we’re running out of room to store the terrain that I keep dreaming up..I’m thinking that I’m going to give selling it a try. So, if you know any nerdy people out there…send them my way. 🙂

Light box

November 4, 2011 - By halleday

I finally made myself a light box for photography!!

I’ve seen many tutorials on the web but put it to the back of my to-do list. Well, now it’s to-done. It may not be the prettiest light box but I didn’t have to buy a thing.

I have to show you the huge difference that it makes even without adding any additional light from a lamp.

This was a picture I took yesterday on my sofa table.

I thought the dark wood of the table would really make the vintage ornaments pop.

And they do…but not in the way I was really looking for.

Now look at this picture taken inside the light box!

What a difference!

I’m definitely going to have much better photos from now on…at least for the small stuff.

Now I just need to figure out where to store it so it doesn’t get damaged or dirty but is still very accessible.
