I’m about ready to just call this G.I. Joe week on Cool & Collected, and it’s only Tuesday. I have just been having too much fun…

Just by moving the light sources around slightly, I got some dramatically different results.

I thought it might be fun to throw a vehicle into the scene, and this old Stinger was handy.

These last three shots use the same pose and camera settings, but I turned on different colored lights, which changes the mood.

For all these photos, I’ve been using that backdrop I made a while ago, and have inserted some props and miniature Christmas lights for effect.

      Thanks! I just checked out your site and am very intrigued about that styrofoam diorama. I’m going to try that etching technique of yours.
