Very nice Jason. Between that and Junkbot I can see you've been using your time
very well :)
I have one question. How are you taking such high quality photographs - especially
the ones with the all white backgrounds? The photographs are brilliantly clear.
Do you actually take the photo against a pure white background, or is there some
photoshop editing involved? If there is photoshop editing, how are the shadows
falling in the correct place? The photo's almost look like very high quality
renderings.
I need to know the secret for my own photographs! :)
Great models though, and thanks for any info.
Kevin
