Must admit I'm undecided on that...

It's a bit hard to see it on this one, but this is what I mean but with the black bit in the center wraped in real carbon

Daz, the strangest thing happened; I found these photos of some toys that I thought you might be interested in :lol: Some worked better than others, I think the last ones and the AMD RR day ones work best.

It's a photography effect called Tiltshift. I've got some fantastic photos from our honeymoon of parts of San Francisco that look like they're in miniature. To be ironic we also did it to a life-sized version of one of those Games Workshop tanks too; it looked like a better miniature than the actual miniatures :D

There's a website that lets you do them very quickly too, called Tiltshift Maker: http://tiltshiftmaker.com/

The best photos are the ones where there are lots of things in shot; close ups rarely come out very well. Also, daylight and bold colours look best after the effect it applied.

For example (and sorry for filling the thread with these, this is it, promise):

None of those are actually miniatures :D
