Title: New photo backdrop
Post by: Fitz on July 25, 2020, 02:23:33 PM

I made a new photo backdrop to go in my little 3d printed sweep clips. I wanted something that would provide a bit of textural interest without adding any colour or overwhelming the subject.

I painted it in Krita using some of its watercolour brushes, and then desaturated it completely to remove any colour cast. Unfortunately, I can only print A4 on my laser; if I want anything bigger than that I will have to go to a print bureau and pay an arm and a leg for it.

The model is a Zvezda 1:100 scale Maus that I'm in the process of painting.

Bah, stupid Google Photos! Hopefully it should be fixed now.

That’s effective and useful - I like it. This reminds me that I must thank you for providing the means to make those clips for holding a background. I got my son-in-law to print me a pair and they are very useful.

So, thank you :)
