" The force is with you, young Skywalker, but you are not a Jedi yet... "

- Darth Vader -

Darth Vader : There is no escape. Don't make me destroy you. Luke, you do not yet realize your importance. You have only begun to discover your power. Join me, and I will complete your training. With our combined strength, we can end this destructive conflict and bring order to the galaxy.

Luke : I'll never join you !

Darth Vader : If you only knew the power of the Dark Side. Obi - Wan never told you what happened to your father.

Luke : He told me enough ! He told me you killed him !

Darth Vader : No. I am your father

Luke : No. No. That's not true. That;s impossible !

Darth Vader : Search your feelings, you know it to be true

Luke : Nooooooooo.....

" It's not who I am underneath, but what I do that defines me "

- Dark Knight -

It seems that 2017 will be Batman Fever ! With the new Lego sets at the shops, new box of Lego Batman Minifigures Series and the upcoming The Lego Batman Movie, Batman will be the Toy Photographer's subject for few months. I've seen some of the Lego Batman Movie sets, and the sets looks awesome ! The cheapest will be the Batman chasing Joker flying with balloons around RM69.00. Yeah ! That's will be the first set to buy.

Ok, forget about the sets, lets plan ahead using Batman for my Toy Photography. Hmmm..so..I think I'll start with....

" Powerful you have become, the dark side I sense in you "

- Yoda -

Yet another set up for me to play around with the lighting. It's now Yoda's turn to show the true power of the Jedi. One of the most respectable Jedi in Star Wars history. Still using the same black board and two source of lighting, here's the result. Other than Darth Vader, Yoda is one of the character that I love to play around.

And here's how the set up for the photos.

It's not hard for the set up but it takes a little bit of work to do it since you need to DIY certain things. But hey, when there's fun, everything looks easy ! Next, I'll post Luke Skywalker !

" Be careful not to choke on your aspirations, Director "

Its fun when you have the idea and working hard on it in order to make it happen. The idea I get is from a fashion magazine. The photographer plays with lighting, using colour gel I guess. Lucky I do have 2 colour gel in my room. The red and blue. At first I wanted to use with my Lego, but while searching for the right minifigure, I saw my Star Wars Infinity 2.0 set. There are Darth Vader, Yoda, Luke Skylwalker, Boba Fett, and Obi Wan Kenobi. You can take a look at the set at this post :- Star Wars Infinity Set

I was like, hey lets try using that set to play with the lighting, starting with Darth Vader. Using with some black boards, 2 source of lighting, 2 colour gels of red and blue, and after some adjustment of the light position and the black boards, here's the result. Its Straight Out Of Camera. Almost, haha. Ya, the lightsaber I used photoshop to make it "laser look alike". I need to sharpen my skill with the photoshop. The lightsaber seems a bit dull. Well, it's homework I guess. Lets try with a different set up with the next figure. Yoda ! See you soon !
