    Sometimes...for my own amusement..I put in a backdrop to my figs...this is just so I can see them from a different perspective..and it makes a change for me to see them without a wall or chair in the background. Just a bit of fun really....hope you like them. Pirate ..Alien and spiderman are 54mm... fantasy guy is 30mm.

    All great pieces, but that is some impressive work on a 30mm.

    I agree the work on the 30mm fantasy figure is fantastic and for me with the sea backdrop the best one.

    I like these kind of pictures.
    As Einion is going to do a tutorial about changing backgrounds, you good do a tutorial with these backgrounds.
    Put them into the section photography.

    Hi Steven,

    Thanks for sharing your pics with backdrops. My favourite is the pirate under moonlight.

    I've tried doing this myself a few times with mixed results, but yours are excellent. I presume you used photoshop of some other program to do this??

    Absolutely Please!! I am now thinking of getting photoshop elements 8 (I assume that's the one everyone is using?). This SBS would be all I really need for what I want to do.

    Thanks

    Gary,
    I use Photoshop CS 3....
    At the moment there is 5.
    If i hear Ramir (chairman of our club) he cannot do everything with Elements. So i hope you can do this not so easy task with PSE 8

    Thanks Marc. I'm not particular in what software I buy, whether it is PSE 8 or CS 3 or even photoshop itself. What I am aiming at is to get a software program that will print nice nameplates and do the background colours and images as mentioned above by Steve. I'm certainly open to any idea's of what to buy so if anyone has a preference I would be interested in seeing examples of what they can do with what they've got...

    Thanks :D
