way to go ranger!! I love your stuff,, I use webshots also as you know,, try to experiment with different light.. your flash is washing out some of your shots... try taking your stuff outside on a nice sunny day, or get a few cheap floodlights and place them around your diorama behind the camara as you shoot.....tomd

ps.. I love airsoft too.. do you shoot your figures?? i set up my cheap ones and blast away,, what a stress reliever....

Updated website photos!!!!!

Post by 75th Ranger » Mon Aug 22, 2005 11:05 am

Hello!
Guys as per request I have updated my website and added many photos to different albums of most of all of my collection. There are a few new albums and some of the old ones were updated with new stuff.

Bythe way, i fired the previous sniper that was taking the photo aiming shots because he only had a 1.3 MB scope, instead i qualified myself with the new 4 MB starlight scope and these photos look much better. it was m y first time using the new scope so let me know what you guys think.

DVSk89:

Some of the pics are blurry because i forgot to take the macro off on the distance shots and i also forgot to put the macro back on some close ups...i used to have a 1.3 megapixels camera but this morning i upgraded to a 4 megapixels camera with a macro lense switch....
so it was my firt time using the camera and i took 150 pics, hahahahha!

to answer about the figures:
some are my customs.
some are the new Target elite force
some are PTE
some are 21st
some are bbi
some are eversparkle
some are GI joe

hopefully that answers your question...if not send me a detail idea of which figures you are talking about.

ps: some are 1/6 and some are 1/12 Mcfarlane military series.

Ranger,
BUNKER pics:
If the military ever runs out of equipment, we know where to send them to get more! I have never seen so many tanks and jeeps!

Where did you get the wall pieces from?? What scale are they for??

Nice set up!

Razor17019:

the wall sections are a variety of items.

There are some from eversparkle, PTE, GI Joe, cheap soldiers sets and more.

The scales vary, from 1/18, 1/6, and 1/32 but they look pretty good when mixed together and especially if you add debris like the one from Build-a-rama.

hope that answers the question.
