Randam's random pics

Effective use of the photo background to create a believable sense of the space.

Very well done sequence of action pics. The background works great with them.

I agree, beautifully posed, shot, and presented. And it doesn't hurt that it features the beautiful Yelena. Very nice integration with the background too, even to the detail of a few lose bricks.

Your cyberpunk works are always outstanding Ralf. Great lighting and posing and the surroundings are perfect. Always a joy to look at

Great shots and angles, poses too.

Thanks for the kind comments, guys!  

I got the VC "MRT alpha-9" kit yesterday and played a little with the head sculpt.

It's a nice head, but the paintwork looks a little plain...

Thanks for looking at my photos!

Nicely done matching the lighting to the scene in the background! Yelena of course completely steals the show.

PS: didn't see the latest lot of photos when posting. Those are gorgeous, too, and that head is beautiful. But Yelena still steals it.

Agreed. All gorgeously lit and shot, but that Yelena steals the show.

What a great looking figure, and so pretty too! Brilliant pics, Ralf!

Beautifully done, as always, Ralf. Nice use of the head on that body and with those clothes, and very cool lighting. And thanks for adding the head shot to the headsculpt catalog thread.

I really like the head. Very pretty with your lighting

Nice looking figure, and great pics, as always. The tattoos are a nice touch.

Wow Ralf, these shots look great!  I've got an MRT Alpha-9 too, but these pics really show off the beauty of her sculpt.  Cool outfit for the character, and once again you've done a terrific job of blending the elements into the photo background.  The tattoos look good, and the lighting make that sculpt look even better.

Thanks so much for posting your pics!  They inspire me to be more creative with my kits.

Thank you very much for the kind comments, folks! I really appreciate it!

The blonde is my hero

The Verycool MRT alpha-9 portrait looks really good. Great outfit + pose.
Did you purchase the entire figure and re_outfit the figure, or did you purchase just the head-sculpt?

Thanks, Shaun! I bought the full VeryCool set to secure the head, but have also got a loose head from eBay, as the prices were unexpectedly moderate. For the Cyberpunk figure, I only used the head. Everything else is from other sources (mostly loose parts from eBay).

Thank you for the reply. Is the separate portrait identical to the portrait what ships with the full figure? ..is the quality the same?

The head is completely unmodified and represents what you get with the VeryCool set. You might check out the head sculpt catalogue to get a better idea how the head looks in plain light.

The skin texture is a little bland, but the paintwork is clean and crisp. Typical VC quality but far away from recent Hot Toys heads. Note that the head is on the smaller side. I would not use it with any bigger TBL bodies.

Thanks for the info + link.
I have a VC haed-sculpt, and am aware of the size being smaller than a standard Hot Toys portrait.

Hi folks,

I lately have very little time (RL sucks ), but I found some moments to toy with new (and partly unfinished) diorama pieces....

Great looking new characters Ralf! Loving the use of the heads and kit.

Great job, you are the Lighting King! Nailed the red shine.

Agree, awesome lighting. Very lovely door shots of the women.

Beautifully done: the figures, the dioramas/backdrops, and of course the photography! Thanks for sharing. Real life can sure get busy and eat up a lot of our time and/or energy for enjoying ourselves in this scale or any other. Hang in there.

Beautifully done on all three. I pictured a Sharon Stone moment with Emma, but then I remembered just how young she is and got creeped out.

All your latest images are of the same superb quality that we've come to expect from you. I especially like the Sharon Stone depiction.

Such a simple yet effective outfit! And both heads wear it nicely.
And the lighting with that background image are awesome as usual!

Thanks for the nice comments, folks! I really appreciate it.

Here is a tiny update...
I actually wanted to participate in the figure competition at the German "Action Figure District"-board, but did not make the deadline, because I'm currently occupied with RL work.

Still, I finished my tiny bash based on the character Cassie Hack and her friend Vlad from the Indie Horror Comic "Hack/Slash". Here's a little teaser...

and a very special "Halloween Greeting" recreating a book cover from Tim Seeley, which is hopefully not to steamy...
