Umarak photoshoot A.K.A. "I found inspiration"

Recommended Posts

Hello there BZP-ers! With summer wave hitting the stores, I decided to pick up Umarak the Destroyer and having built him, went ahead and done some photos. Not in a review kind, just like: "Hey this guy looks cool, I bet I can make some decent shots of him". The decency of said shots can be discussed, as I'm not a professional and my only experience making photos of Bionicle comes from a single review I made over a year ago. So yeah, photos. Tell me if you like them, tell me how to make better shots, or just come and enjoy some definitely-not-professional photography :)

Also bonus, some photos of Kopaka (and my hands in some cases) from before i set up the background. Yes, I know the background is bad, I did those on a whim, without any preparation:

You have some nice posing, but the focus and lighting can use improvement. There was a good article on Brickset (accidentally published on April Fools this year) that offers a method to build a "light box" to provide better lighting

All aboard the hype train!

Awesome poses, dude! They look epic! How Umarak the Destroyer attacks Tahu with his claws reminds me of the Lizard from The Amazing Spider-Man movie in 2012. I love his beast-looking poses! Kopaka makes some neat stunts, too! :) (thumbs up)

I like Lego, Bionicle, and Hero Factory!:)

Thanks for all the nice comments! :) Also, thanks Travis for the tips on the lightbox, I'm sure gonna try to light up my setting better next time! I also noticed people took interest in my painted Toa Mata, would you guys want me to show off the rest of them? I added some details to all of them but I would still need to repaint some of them (Kopaka's eye for example...)
