Sideshow 1/6 ROTLA Indiana Jones Image Thread

[MaulFan]

Hey Josh, I know I asked you this before, but what camera are you using? The clarity of your shots is beyond amazing!

Canon Digital Rebel XTi, there's a new model with 2 more megapixels, the XSi, runs the same price as the XTi used to. I use the same camera as Josh.

 

[The Josh]

wow, the beard on yours is really dark and full.

A little of the light and flash playing games. Its pretty good in hand.

Hey Josh, I know I asked you this before, but what camera are you using? The clarity of your shots is beyond amazing!

I have a Canon Rebel SLR.

Think this is real similar to mine

The finish on your idol doesn't look very smooth. Is that true? Or just a remnant of the photograph? Mine is mostly smooth with random rough spots.

I played with the photo to make it look that way. Its pretty smooth all over.

 

[JustinLuck]

Yeah, let's see some more pics guy!

justinluck, why no pics? Just the jacket? And no, my jacket is even on the collar, and the zipper right side (if wearing it) is a tad longer than the left (opposite of yours).

Hey WorGar, I will post pics soon. Hopefully this weekend. But I am wondering if I should contact Sideshow about the jacket. Anyone else have uneven collars?

 

[The Josh]

Great shots, Josh! Serious doily pics. Glad you took a pic of almost every item!

How's your hatless head?

Thank ya sir! Pretty happy with how they came out. I took nearly 250 shots of Indy to find ones I really liked. Yeah, the only one I didn't was the pistol because it was in the holder.

The hatless head looks good. There will be shots of it but not until my TT body comes on Tuesday and I can make my Professor Jones figure.

Thanks Sean. I think what I linked it to was the right one but honestly I can never remember.

Wow dude... it's not just the collar, everything's uneven about that jacket!
I'm sure SST will send a replacement.

My collar is a little uneven too.

It doesn't look any more uneven than anyone elses. The jacket doesn't line up perfectly from zipper bottom to collar. I've looked at a lot of Indy pics here and it looks like everyone has a longer side. It's not that big a deal.

Your jacket looks clean and good. I wouldn't risk getting a worse one. Besides, I doubt they'll even send you one with a photo like that.

Well, the model you and I have is on it's end of life. The XS is the new XTi, 10 MP, same price basically, and the XSi is the higher model. There was an XT and XTi when our camera was new. Like any technology, it always evolves. I'm a little ticked though, I had hoped to buy the XSi and get more MP, but my battery pack and memory cards aren't compatible with the new model so it'll cost about $200-$300 more than I thought to upgrade so I need to save more. Only my lens and flash are compatible.

That sucks. There's a couple of things I'd like to get for mine another lens of course and an external flash. Both of which I think would help my mediocre skills even more.

Go for it, even if you upgrade the camera body, it won't hurt you. Our camere uses Compact Flash memory cards, the XSi uses SD cards, and the battery size and shape is different so the adapter on my batter pack isn't compatible, and for when I do weddings and longterm shoots, the extra power's critical for me.

Thanks for the info Sean. I recently purchased a P&S, Canon SX10, but I have been disappointed with the amount of noise in the images. Admittedly, my photography knowledge is limited, as I leave things on auto most of the time. But the noise limits me from cropping a photo too much.

 

[Cap'n Hands]

Where would I go to get my Indy head repainted? I wasn't even thinking about it until I started seeing some of the great repaints here. I don't think I could do that good a job so is there people that do it for a fee?

 

[JediMike71]

I love your signature there Cap'n Hands! The Jeff Goldblum movie, "The Fly" is one of my favorites. Gotta love the "Brundlfly" huh?

 

[PRIME]

just got mine today , indys okay but the head is kind a loose clonobi is a much better figure ..im happy with indy tho good head sculpt but the paint job sucks heres a pic

 

[JustinLuck]

Based from what I see in these screen captures, the truetype does have good proportioned shoulders relative to head size.

 

[Rugby1970]

An attempted repaint and some dramatic lighting...

 

[jungle jom]

Those are some of the best shots of this figure yet!!!!!!!!!

 

[Wor-Gar]

That looks pretty damn good!

 

[The Drizzle]

That head is SO freaking big!!! I'm so afraid I'm going to be disappointed when he arrives. Please, can anyone who put his head on a HT TrueType body show some pictures? I hope it will help fix the problem.

Honestly, I swear, it doesn't look it in hand. I think the macro photography warps the size a tad when you get close for these sharp med close-ups of the figure.
