Trying out non-metallic metal for the first time on some scouts. Here is my first test. I'm not sure how I feel about it, and any comments or criticism would be greatly appreciated.



Original photos below (they're bad):


EDIT: Uploaded a better photo.

Looks good. The photo's aren't great quality, but from what I see, it's a decent quality paint job

Duly noted. I'll try to rig up some better pictures.

You really don't need an expensive setup, or light box. I use a light coloured chair on my kitchen table. With a spotlight shining straight down on my mini. All pics taken with an iPad or Samsung galaxy.

Be aware though. You will become addicted to posting your mini's. lol

I tried your technique, and re-posted what I hope is a better photo. Thanks for the tip!
