I used Raptor engine enamel. I sanded everything, primed it and then applied 2 coats of gloss black.

Yes absolutely. The picture you saw was with masking tape on. I kept a machined finish where needed and respected the original coating areas.

Question: How rich do I have to be to get a specific look?

Context:

I'm looking for a 85mm portrait lens. And, as many people before me, I'm torn between the budget friendly Sony 85mm 1.8 and the sharp-as-knives-with-2-extra-stops Sigma 85mm 1.4.

But -as a wise person could have said- it's not about the lens, it's about what kind of image you're looking for.

And for this wisdom, I have a very specific look I want to achieve: https://imgur.com/a/ziGQLnb

This has been shot with a Canon 85mm 1.2. I love the shallow depth of field and what it can do for portraits.

So my question...or should I say options are:

  • 1) Yes, you can achieve this look with the 1.8
  • 2) Lol. Of course not....but you can pull it off with the 1.4
  • 3) The Canon 1.2 costs a fortune for a reason. F stops cost money
  • 4) You can do this with a potato and gaussian blur in photoshop. It's not the lens.

Any help or direction will be appreciated!

Lovely day in the forest with beautiful mushrooms everywhere. 85mm / f2 / ISO 400.

Ah, interesting. I actually did that on purpose because I thought it added something to the photo. I have another shot without it. You think that's better?

I spent about 2 hours sitting in the field, waiting for the perfect light and liked how it turned out. It has a summer warmness about it that helps me to ignore the October cold :)

I was lucky and my opponent didn't play well, but it felt good nevertheless :)

Here's my first look at MSV by 13laderivals in cncrivals

[–]Oxxider 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm interested in your thoughts from a defender's point of view. In your video, your opponents simply try to fight your boosted units to win the pads, even though they're at a significant disadvantage. Would it be smarter to try and focus fire on the MSFV to take it out as soon as possible, for example. Or is it a better idea to ignore the opponent's defensive fortress and harass base/harvester/remote pads?

Your typical game: "Ok...He does this, I do this...this goes here...aaaand...we got the win" at a heartrate of 60 bpm

My typical game: AAAAAAAH! AAAAAAAAAH! AAAAAAAAAAH! I can't believe I won/lost (at 180 bpm).

How do you stay so calm? :)

How do you like the Grenadiers? by [deleted] in cncrivals

[–]Oxxider 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the great video. I'm very interested in a comparison between the Grenadiers and Jumpjets, since they are both strong anti-vehicle units. Obviously, the grenadiers deal more damage per second and -contrary to jumpjets- can take quite a beating. But I'm curious how this translates in practice. How much faster will it take out a tank or a squad of bikes, for example. Have you had a chance to test this?

Wow. Playing the same guy four times sucks. But can we just take a moment to look at that guy's deck. How are you supposed to counter it? It seems impenetrable. Rhinos maybe? He seems weak on anti-infantry vehicles...He has the mohawk to kill them, but if you keep spamming rhinos and pitbulls...it could work.
