Birds eye view Macro Photography

Postby phoenixcinder » March 16th, 2018, 4:18 am

Once my base set arrives would anyone have any use for high clarity macro photos of a birds eye view of miniatures/furniture?
Possibly to use to make their maps look nicer?
I know this is a market, I am not looking to sell these kinds of photos but to just give them away.

Let me know if there is any interest. Thx

Do you have any examples of what you're talking about? I'm not sure I understand what you mean.

Sadly I do not as I do not have the base set yet, still in the mail. That and I cannot upload pics on the forum either so not sure if this will be possible at all.
Look at this page.

All the miniatures are shot directly straight on from the front.

I am talking about birdseye view shots of the miniatures and equipment. So from the top down

I wouldn't mind seeing your furniture pictures made into tiles. They could be useful when a Quest calls for extra furniture. Perhaps you could post them in the Gallery?

At heroquest no-ip, side and top furniture pics are available, but I imagine you can do better. It would be nice if paper models could be made from such macro images.

No IP? I am not following? But high res pics of the furniture would be simple to make once I get mine in

I used coloured-in pictures of the furniture from the quest maps. Fits well enough with the style of the board.
