So with the latest photobucket ransom, its looking like I'll have to shift hosts. I've over 11,000 images hosted with photobucket. This might mean that past updates may go dark, looking at my options.
3000pts 7th edition 40k game. An00bis's Tau empire vs my Deathwatch.
5 objectives, corner deployment.
The center objective was vital and worth 6vp instead of 3vp.
An00bis took some count as allies, the alien "shentari" used scout rules and I sadly killed their leader with a very accurate full spread from my whirlwind scorpius before I could get a picture of it. I got to try out my knight warden.
The main objective was a bomb, the tau wanted to disarm and disable it, the deathwatch want what any good deathwatch do, exterminatus!
In opposing corners from our deployments we both placed some thematic objectives. An00bis placed a wounded crisis suit and I placed a wounded deathwatch marine. As for the objectives in our deployment zones, an00bis placed his awesome tau command console and in my zone I placed a forgeworld generator.
Also played around with some canned fog for some of the shots.
Tau won, held all 4 corner objectives and had linebreaker for a total of 13vp, deathwatch held the center and got first blood for 7vp
We agreed to play a fixed 5 turns.
The highlight for me was when a lucky snapshot from the multi-melta on the land raider took down the barracuda. I had scrambled before the game to get that very weapon painted and it paid off. The dice gods and the paint gods occasionally do lunch

I've been following this thread long before I actually joined Dakka and I just wanted to say I love the immersion your photos bring.

Yeah skimask's banner dude is legit terrifying, aos models are good for somethin
2500pts skimask mohawk's Raven Guard vs an00bis's Tau Empire. This was a truly awesome game to watch, definitely went very differently than both parties thought it would. Batrep's in the oven.
Skimask brought the atrapos

Seriously leveling up the entire enterprise.
Let me fill your pipe, man.
This is some serious greatness.
Thank you.

So many amazing shots in this thread. Amazing what some painted armies, even just a tabletop standard, can mesh together to really bring the narrative to life.
"Courage and Honour. I hear you murmur these words in the mist, in their wake I hear your hearts beat harder with false conviction seeking to convince yourselves that a brave death has meaning.
There is no courage to be found here my nephews, no honour to be had. Your souls will join the trillion others in the mist shrieking uselessly to eternity, weeping for the empire you could not save.
To the unfaithful, I bring holy plagues ripe with enlightenment. To the devout, I bring the blessing of immortality through the kiss of sacred rot.
And to you, new-born sons of Gulliman, to you flesh crafted puppets of a failing Imperium I bring the holiest gift of all.... Silence."

All you need is some captions and some call-outs and you have a book here.
Have you thought of hiring out your camera to do portfolios for collectors?
Say, "Send me your army, I will use it in a battle and take photos, and stage portraits of your characters and send the results, maybe even arrange a hard-copy coffee-table book sort of thing."?
Definitely a high-end niche but damage, if anyone can do it you can do it man.
You are awfully good with a camera.

Not sure what kinda demand there would be but I could probably make a book. With the hosting going dead on new years there may be some incentive for nostalgia
Logistics are the main problem for shooting collections, and as you said it's a niche. Locally it's not too bad but if the owner can't be present for the shoot I'd be so afraid to damage a model myself or have models get damaged during shipping.
I've contemplated selling prints, but again to solve the logistics it's likely not viable without a decent demand. The third party drop ship route would likely solve the logistics but I can't see demand being high if it's like 80$ s print.
Thanks for the kind words jeff, I swear I'll have a new lcbr up soon
