Volksgrenadier Sturm Platoon

A Volksgrenadier Sturm platoon. These were done prior to the winter/greatcoat figures; an ad-hoc mix from Battlefront's Sperrverband box set and the Begleit blisters for the Assault Rifle-armed figures.

  4. I can't really help you much with the photography stuff mate. Camera on macro setting, Tripod, 3 lights (one above, one to each side but slightly forward the photo area (i.e. don't light from behind the miniature, light up the front). I take a range of pictures at differing exposure/EV levels (e.g. +0.3, +0.7, +1, etc) and choose the best from there.

    Obviously, use a timer (2 seconds) so you don't touch the camera when taking the pic.

    The basic setup is similar to this:

    ...though I don't place my lights so close, since I'm taking a pic of more than just a single miniature, and I have a 3rd light above. The background is just a few sheets of A4 white paper.

    It is still not something I'm much good at, the pictures lack sharpness for the most part.
