How to take great photos of your minis - Willmark - 11-17-2015

Ever wonder how to take good photos? Ever wonder why your photos don't look quite right? I had this link in the back of my mind and kept meaning to post a link to it here; just remembered now to post it. Look it over, there is some great information there, even if it is from weedy, pansy elves.

For my own self I'm going to start using the techniques here to get better photographs, and no, using your phone's camera isn't gong to give you the best results... Wink

Here is the original link from over on druchii.net:
