I've been looking, and i've come across two that have caught my eye, one perhaps overly pricey but I'll link them here.

I live in the UK, so looking out for high delivery charges is kind of important, but I was wondering if anyone might have some opinions to share about these, or what I should look for
in regards to getting a light box to take pictures of my miniatures in. I don't have titans or anything that big so I can get away with having a pretty small one I just don't have a clue about
them though.

My room suffers pretty badly from terrible lighting so even using these to paint in is an idea thats crossed my mind xD.

If anyone has any tried and tested alternatives I would love to see / have a link for them >.<

I have the first one and its only "ok" the lights are not very powerful for the size of the tent, and not the correct light temperature either.

I would go for one of the pop-up tents next time.

Do you have an example of one of those? xD

I have the first one too. The tent is ok but the lights are poo. They get very hot and as mentioned the colour is too yellow.
I bought these lights:

Expensive but worth it IMO. The light is white & the bulb stays very cool. They're also much bigger than the other ones.
You can also make one - get a large box, cut out panels on three sides, cover with greaseproof or baking paper & tape a long sheet of white paper to the back which curves down to cover the base as well.
For best results, I recommend at least 3 lights. The other one I use is an old version of this:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Helix-VL7020-Watt-Titanium-Light/dp/B000NJUVUW/ref=sr_1_51?s=lighting&ie=UTF8&qid=1395600861&sr=1-51&keywords=desk+light&tag=chrome03-21

So ideally would be the box from the first link, and then those new lights. I wonder if I could get the box by itself someplace.

what sort of example do you want???

The pop up tents? xD

one of these. then get a couple of desk lamps with good quality day light bulbs with the correct temperature.
