I messed with the lighting and took dozens of shots but found that I liked the first shot of the session the best and stuck with it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Blood Rage basically put CMON on the map with some of the most fantastic board game sculpts to hit the market. They&#8217;d go on to build their gaming empire off this adherence to quality plastic minis and I think this image of just one of their many figure sculpts really shows why they&#8217;ve been so successful thus far.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"480\" src=\"http:\/\/pimpmyboardgame.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/CMON_Blood_Rage_Ship_Odin2-600x480.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-7271\" srcset=\"http:\/\/pimpmyboardgame.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/CMON_Blood_Rage_Ship_Odin2-600x480.jpg 600w, http:\/\/pimpmyboardgame.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/CMON_Blood_Rage_Ship_Odin2-198x158.jpg 198w, http:\/\/pimpmyboardgame.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/CMON_Blood_Rage_Ship_Odin2-400x320.jpg 400w, http:\/\/pimpmyboardgame.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/CMON_Blood_Rage_Ship_Odin2-768x614.jpg 768w, http:\/\/pimpmyboardgame.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/CMON_Blood_Rage_Ship_Odin2-900x720.jpg 900w, http:\/\/pimpmyboardgame.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/CMON_Blood_Rage_Ship_Odin2.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Here we have an Raven clan boat miniature set on Dreadfleet&#8217;s handy sea cloth mat. While the miniature isn&#8217;t as striking as a lot of their figures, it works well with minimal design.  Unlike my figure profile, this session took almost twice as many photos to get right and I ended &#8220;finding it&#8221; in the very last shot of the reel.  A bit of cropping in the post-edit and I like the end effect this one gives off.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The concept isn&#8217;t new as several photographers have done very similar shots with other minis and since I frequent Boardgamegeek&#8217;s image galleries I like had their images in mind even when I can&#8217;t recall exactly the image I&#8217;m pulling from.  It could be that I saw it years ago and the brain just filed it away as a pleasant memory only resurface as I was composing my own image.  I know I was also going for a very specific homage as well why running this session but that will have to wait until next week when I hopefully have the final work complete. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A favorite game of mine recently had a revitalizing Kickstarter to enter the digital range.
