I picked another one of my toys to shoot in portrait. I set up the Kick on the Gorillapod so that I could light the Shredder figure. I shot it in profile so that I could capture a very dark background and make the figure pop.
I was using the NX300 with the 60mm Macro lens. I really notice how badly the toys I have need to be dusted when I see them in macro.
I’m reviewing a bunch of fun Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle toys for a post on That’s It Mommy. One of the toys is a Donatello figure in a stealth suit. He’s been added to the group of Turtles that I have on my desk at work. I normally don’t like figures in special suits, I am more interested in the figures as they normally would look. I do like this figure though. Because Donatello is the tech guy on the tem it would make sense to me that he’d create some sort of stealth suit to use for certain missions.
