Showoff Thread: ANH Standard and X-1 TIE

[jvasilatos]

My God what a difference professionally taken photos against a blue velvet background can make.

Absolutely the LAST pictures I will ever have to post of my Studio Scale Standard TIE and X-1 Advanced (pending a swap out when Steve makes his more accurate X-1 available...)

Both have got cockpit lighting and if you look carefully, you can see the TIE Pilot and Vader before they release a volley of fire on your tail...

Wow JV, what a difference that made on your photos!!!! I'm impressed. They don't even look remotely the same in these pix.

I'm curious why the cockpit lighting is purple instead of red?

It's actually pink-red, but adjusting the photos in Photoshop because of the tungsten lighting threw off the red lights in the cockpit and engines a little. They were made with lightsheet material that comes in the pink-red color.

Those pics are stunning! Great Job J. It's amazing how nice photography can make a model look even better!
