Does anyone have any pointers on how to do that? Do you use a giant tripod? Attach some sort of Go pro to the ceiling? Use cell phones? Any direction would be welcome.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/666146/8170988.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/666146/8170988.page GMT


Problem with cellphones is the quality of ones camera and inability to get a completely steady shot.
ArbitorIan does similar shots - search for his batreps, usually great quality shots he gets.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/666146/8171291.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/666146/8171291.page GMT
You can get good utility from simplified unit diagrams from Powerpoint. Here is an example from a battle report I did a while back.



Once you've done the unit representation once, you can copy it infinitely.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/666146/8171293.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/666146/8171293.page GMT
Inkscape is an absolutely beautiful tool for doing this kind of graphics work. It's really easy to learn the basics of - bearing in mind that I myself have absolutely no training in using graphics programs since I learned to move the turtle in year seven, I made this nearly from scratch in the program, having extracted the roundel and the table outline (only) from a pdf;

Flinty, how did you create those unit shapes in Powerpoint? just through a combination of basic colors and shapes?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/666146/8173081.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/666146/8173081.page GMT
