Wow, this was amazing! I love taking pictures of my diecast models, and this helps!

[@ModelCarMuse]

Thanks, glad it helps!

[@Blestyr]

A masterclass of model car photography lightning. I have 10 years in photography and have watched so many videos and tutorials on different topics regarding lightning. This is hands down one of the best I've watched, not only because the step-by-step explanation but also these techniques can be used in other types of photography as well. Hats off to you Doug.

[@hoppy5631]

Thank you for your effort in putting this tutorial together. It demystifies the lighting techniques by showing it stage by stage. Very much appreciated!

[@gordon7566]

Thanks for sharing!

[@raymondblasee1048]

Thank you Doug!! This tutorial will really help me take better pictures of my models!

[@photogr4u]

Great tips Doug! One thing you should have mentioned but not needed in your shots is to be sure to dust off or blow off the car to get rid of dust. Many people take pics of their models and are covered with dust.

[@ModelCarMuse]

More photography videos to come!

[@jack002tuber]

This is great stuff. I shoot pics of diecast cars and do many of the same things. The big one for me was adding the reflector cards on the sides, makes a big difference. You can control the light and with just a few moments turn a blah pic into a great pic

[@hkl6798]

I have to say this is amazing content❤

" Let there be light ".

[@alensley1368]

Awesome video. I've been planning on doing some photography of my builds but didn't know where to start. Now I do. Thank you!!

[@shanew.williams]

I learned some things. Particularly about background or "the set". I'm a raw amateur. Builder of oval track model cars only. Thinking how to translate this teaching into use with a regular android phone camera. That's all i've ever had to photo my builds with.

[@ioannisbatas1614]

Superb !!!

I just came across your channel. I am always intrigued by people that work well with their hands. I was building model cars as a kid but have nowhere the skills I've seen here on youtube with professionals like you. Amazing work!
