Messing around with my camera (1 Viewer)

[Alexdakar]

I'm experimenting with backgrounds.

Here is another one.

Where did you get the backgrounds Alex. I've been looking for some. Is there one place that has more than most.

I use a Sony Cybershot with 3.3 megapixels. I've had it for a while.

I just did a yahoo search under images for D-Day and WWII. I use to know of websites but they never seem to last.

Great idea. Thank you very much.

One more and I'll leave you all alone.

The pictures are terrific. How did you manage to post them in your message on the board?

When you post on the forum you have a choice "Manage attachments". Just click on it and upload your picture but it has to be 40k or smaller.

I've got one more dumb question. The backgrounds seem to seamlessly fit into your soldiers. How did you do that. Did you print out the picture, place it on a board or somehow merge a picture of your soldiers into a picture of the background. If the latter, how did you do that?

 

[Alexdakar]

I placed the picture on a board and put the figures in front. I guess the trick is to add some foreground stuff that matches the background. Take a few pictures from different angles and choose the best one and crop if needed.
