It looks like it's on a tv/computer monitor.
BINGO! I just image searched "HD Space" and pulled a bunch of cool pics. Then I just pose guys in front of the monitor.

Very clever... As by doing so it really adds a layer of "glow" behind the figures that you would otherwise have to photoshop in.
Hmmm I must consider this in my displays... But now that would add several 1000's of dollars to its expense...

It can't go inside all the way so I much preferred it this way.

So when I went to Toys R' Us and grabbed my new Strongarm, I also grabbed one of these Nanoblock building sets (TINY tiny little building blocks). I'd been eyeing this one up in particular for a while, but never bothered to get it, until now!

Being honest, the real reason I got it was for THIS!

"IT'S WAYNE'S WORLD! WAYNE'S WORLD! PARTY TIME! EXCELLENT! WOOWOOWOOWOOWOOO!"

"QUENCH MY THIIIIIRRRRST WITH GAAAASOLIIIIIINE!"

"Thank you, Cleveland!"

Frustrating, isn't it? I still have the part, I keep it on my desk by my tv monitor. Tried gluing it on but it won't stay. Doesn't rally bother me, because if I want him in bike mode I can just set it on the part it broke off of and it sits there just fine. It won't stay on when he's in robot mode though.

Alright...jokes over. Pull out your A game. Doesn't have to be now or tomorrow but think about your next pic and make it awesome! Whatever figure it is from whatever line but think about your favorite fig and take a rad pic. No wood grain and no derpy posing.
What's the TF you have in your collection that you really wanna showcase in this thread to the best of your ability?

Hah. I really don't have anything else as a background! XD I'd have to take stuff off of my desk to have the white wall as the background. Unless I use those cardboard scenes I kept from DoTM packaging.

Wait... inspiration has struck...

Could you not use a piece of white paper propped/taped to the wood?

by **MGrotusque** » Fri Feb 13, 2015 4:53 am

You'll figure it out. Like i said. It doesn't have to be now or tomorrow. Put some thought into it and get creative.
