I don’t usually post WIP shots from my desk, but I was playing around with my DSLR and two speedlites (flashguns) I recently purchased and found I could take reasonably well lit photo. The above shot was 1/60th shutter speed, aperture was 16 and ISO was 400. I had one speedlite mounted on the cameras hotshoe and the other speedlite was set to slave and set up on the right pointing upward bouncing light off the ceiling. I’ve ordered a remote trigger for the flash that mounts on the hotshoe so I can then have my speedlites set up to the left and right of the subject.
Special bonus pic after the jump.
I popped into GW Barnet on the way home to pick up some Hunter Orcs on Wargs. Whilst I was there Cat showed me her latest model. An Ent. I was so impressed, I had to take a snap and share it.
Check out Cat’s other Lord of the Rings models here.

Looking forward to seeing all the trolls finished togethere! Will your recent purchase mean a Hunter Orcs on Wargs tutorial in the future?
There will be a hunter orc on Warg tutorial. There isn't a timeframe for this yet.
I also purchased Azog…
is there going to be a tutorial how the paint the fire for the trolls …. fire can be quite trick to paint…. plus ( i have a Balrog back on my desk who need some proper flames all over his body )
I'm not going to create a tutorial for the camp fire. If I ever paint a Balrog I'll make sure I create a tutorial.
Great post, great site!
Thanks!
I'm not worrying about speculation. I'll worry about it when it happens.
It is a real pity that (I assume) the Lord Of The Rings range will be discontinued like the Imperial Guard Valhallans that are being discontinued at the moment.
