Post subject:  NF Sci-Fi......Not sure about this one
I'm am on a huge Night Force kick right now with 3 more WIPs in progress for what will be 9 total. This one was amazing in my head, but now that I see it, it kind of fell flat for me. I think I was expecting too much. Anyway, here is Sci-Fi.

side note: my wife is doing photography on the side now so I can't use the really good camera anymore. My pics will not be as good as they once were.

I like it. The only thing I can maybe suggest is getting some orange on the torso, head or somewhere so it flows a bit better. Maybe the cuffs on the gloves?
Some on the shoulder straps?

Question, why can't she take pics of your figures to post?

Because she has the camera on some "raw" setting (which allows her to basically do whatever she wants digitally to the photos) and the pics need to be edited and adjusted and it takes a very long time and she has so many other pics to edit from customers it just isn't worth the aggravation of trying to get her to do stuff for me. I may have her shoot my Jetfire custom once its finished though.

Also, I asked if I could just set the camera back to the "easy/beginner" settings where it basically does everything for you like I used before, but she said it took her hours to get it where she wanted it so it took pictures the way she needs to use the editing software and so I can't touch the settings.

I think some orange on the shoulder pads would work. I like the way he has turned out and Sci-Fi makes a good addition to the NF team.

Buy her a newer nicer camera, so you can use the old one, again.

The only problem with that is the one she is using cost about $2000 if you count the extra lens and accessories. Oh...The lens is another problem. The one she uses is not the one I use for macro on my customs. I would have to switch lenses everytime I use it as well. I think the camera I am using will be OK if I get some more light on the subject and mess with the settings. I don't like using flashes because of the glare it sometimes creates, and shadows for that matter. But this one cost $500 new about 4 years ago, so it should be able to give me crisp pics if I figure out how to use it properly.

I like this. I agree a little more of the red/orange might help, but I wouldn't be disappointed in this.
