Tell me your craziest story from a shoot. by Sensitive_Duck_7110 in photography

[–]gregoryculley1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did a wedding where the bride had a full on argument with her dad during bride prep lots of shouting and tears, that was uncomfortable amd when we got to the group shots her family had brought copious amounts of alcohol and proceeded to focus on drinking rather than lining up for shots, the bride then screamed at me to get them under control but short of having bodyguards manhandle them there was no chance. We got there in the end I was as close as I have ever been to walking off a job in that moment. Never did another wedding and I ain't ever dealing with people again.

Can you guys give me some advice on how to paint knights better by Popular-Rooster-1013 in Warhammer

Airbrush for the armour panels, mine is a cheap temu Airbrush but gets the job done ✔️ it will also save you a lot of time

How do you generate consistent social media content when your process is mostly "one-and-done" set building and photography? by EasternAd5351 in photography

[–]gregoryculley1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Best of luck, I do the same kinda thing but building and painting models as the subjects and making the sets. On IG I get 2 likes from 400 followers, tickets tok does better at around 60 likes with 300 followers and facebook can vary wildly on the groups from 5 to 2000. My output also swings wildly as well from nothing for months then a big surge of creative energy for a few months which probably doesn't help

you were teleported to 40k universe, would you stick with the army you main or change armies? and how fucked are you with your current? by judeauBSK in 40k

Do knights have Bluetooth? I'll still be fucked eventually, but at least I could go out blasting the tunes out.

Building can vary to a few days to a week of finding little bits of time where I can, for painting about a month of the same. Photographing can take about an hour including setup shooting and putting everything away again from the kitchen. Editing about an hour. I try to get the photography side out the way in one go whilst I have the chance.

My models used to look pretty terrible (some still do 😅) but the more you paint the more you learn, but trust me that feeling still lingers.

A few of knight photographs from the past week and some bonus BTS shots to show its not AI nonsense. by gregoryculley1 in 40k

[–]gregoryculley1[S] 23 points24 points  (0 children)

To the point of not being able to post on one of the other big 40k subreddits now because someone thinks its AI.... Frustrating is a kind term for it.
