I have set up a small table with several props that are all interchangable... I cut pics from magazines, collect post cards, and take a few of my own pics for the back drops... I have a few different light set ups that help too... With this small dio set up you can get many different realistic looking pics like these... It's real easy to do !!!

Great Idea! I need to do something similar for slotcars that I may sell. Sure it will make them more noticable to potential bidders. :thumbsup::thumbsup: rr

Mustangman those photos look great. Thanks for sharing a very neat idea.

I always like to see how others shoot thier pics. Thanks for sharing. I also like the way you post project pics of your customs. It gives me lots of ideas! You do great work.

I was just thinking something similar for shooting my 1:72 airplanes! Those setting help define the model, they give context. Great idea, and nicely done.
