I use the Peco railway back drops attached to a box and one of my narrow  terrain boards..



Works very well.

Your painting style and the backdrop go very well together

Lots of great ideas here.  Just a few different boards and backdrops would give you a lot of combinations to work with.

I produced this small and simple terrain board just for taking images of my Typhon project.


A fuller image can be seen here.

I've been doing terrain specific for picture taking for a while now, but I feel that I will have to up my game a bit these days; there are a lot of killer terrain set ups and excellent shots of terrain and miniatures that inspire me to bring more detail and effort into building settings for miniature pictures.

All of mine to date have been based on a fairly generic concept that allows many different miniatures to be photographed on the terrain and against the back drop. In the future though I think I need to build more specific terrain - but still keep it general - like dampfpanzerwagon's terrain below, kudos on that!

Here's what I have though:

  • Four terrain boards
  • Hundreds of image backgrounds

Here's a picture example of it in action:


I'll post as I update my stuff...

Thanks

I'd like to see the resulting pictures for the 15mm Granadines.  I have bought a veeeery similar photo to do exactly the same thing.
