You and Havok really need to teach us all how to make a background and light it.

I'm flattered, @shaynetech! But there really isn't much to it. I just use whatever's handy in my shots, usually. I'll explain a bit down below. I can take some pics of my setup next time around if you want! Branjita... Honestly, you don't need to worry about backgrounds too much. The Android 18 vs. Trunks shots don't have any backgrounds. It's just a window on a sunny day behind her! All natural light. With a slow enough shutter speed, the background gets completely whited out. I didn't have enough exposure in the Krillin vs. Cell shots so you can see some details of outside behind the figures. I also used a piece of card stock as a reflector in front of her to kick some light onto her front. The earlier shots I posted of Goku/Vegeta and Frieza as well as the recent photos of 18/Krillin just use some card stock I had lying around as a backdrop, and I don't really like those shots much. They're kinda rushed. The Goku/Vegeta and Frieza shots just use some the fluorescent ceiling lights of my family room. The 18/Krillin shots use natural light and again, card stock as a reflector. The normal form Goku shots just use natural light and the blue walls of my family room as a background. The SDCC Goku shots are lit using my mall ikea desk light with a glass cutting board underneath to kick light upwards. I think that covers everything?

Cleaning Levi is just too much fun. Just my dining room as a background in this shot. Why? Because he's cleaning it.

So I switched my Magnet Action Yamcha head onto a Goku Great Battle body... Needless to say, I find myself in need of a new Magnet Action Yamcha.

I know you've said it before but what figure comes with that hat?
