TFW you spend a week grabbing five and ten minutes to make a model like this, out of cardboard & paint, & then you read that google maps now lets people fabricate completely false satellite images for some reason. Starting to feel there’s people who dont get why that’s bad & people who make things.

Mostly been a spreadsheets day today (boooo) but I have been working on a model bog, as you do. Think it’s gonna be pretty useful.

Yay!

Frog skin capes. A perfect fit. #maskwitches

“As everyone knows, the patterns on a frog’s skin prevent them from being too large, and the frog wives give permission to find and use a frog skin amulet. Preparing the body of a dead frog in the correct manner will allow the witches to ward off their huge size, and wear the frog skin as a cape”

Boom

Cheeky little set build this afternoon. A nice new backdrop is working well. (Not especially visible in these behind the scenes snaps, mind you) These will slot into the Maskwitches GMs Companion, which will be ready to ship with the Maskwitches ENnies Emporium stuff. #maskwitches

Enjoying working with this upcycled disposable lens. You have to really crank down the exposure after the fact, but that in itself makes for some lovely stuff. The real treasure is figuring this stuff out and transferring it to other things. Doing and then figuring stuff out is really important.

Ahhhh Ropecon! So good. I was there as a guest in 2019 and it was a really great experience. Such a different vibe to the big US (and now UK) shows.

Another long day but lets break out the smoke machine and some props and have a little fun 15 minutes photo shoooooo aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa womm womm womm womm microwave sounds Chernobyl soundtrack intensifies

We got the shot. Clearly some digital work in post required to clean up the background, but that's all par for the course. #maskwitches

Been writing since 6am, then packing parcels from 9 till now, so I figure as a treat, I am allowed to make a Maskwitches photoshoot with fire, very dry plants and power tools, right?

I’d written a much longer thread about this topic but short version: I think making creative photos of your miniatures using some scenery and backdrops, and doing as much as possible “in camera” is very satisfying, authentic and wholesome. There's something about things you can hold in your hand.
