    Surprised I didn't see a new one started already, but carrying over tradition here it is! Copied tekering's initial post in last year's thread, please help us observe the following rules:

    Previous "Supah Cleah" Threads:
    2012
    2013
    2015

    ----------------
    This thread is for posting your quality, high end pics. Lightbox pics, etc. This is to allow those who want to post their high quality pics a place to showcase their photos, and help those who want to improve their photography skills.

    Here's some guidelines:
    LIGHTBOX TYPE SHOTS ONLY, OR PHOTOGRAPHS WHICH MIND THEIR BACKGROUNDS: This thread is not for desktop or driveway photography. Use a background. Flexibility may be granted if utmost care is taken to ensure quality otherwise. No cellphone pics.
    PLEASE KEEP IMAGE SIZE TO A REASONABLE RESOLUTION: Preferably less than 1,000 pixels wide. Even though the forums will appear to resize your images, the entire file will load with every refresh and giant images will slow down the thread. Large images may be removed and the poster may repost a smaller version. Pics above 1200 pixel-wide resolution are always way too big and will be removed immediately. Please shoot for around 1000 pixels. Minor differences like 1050 pixels are not an issue.
    HEAVY PHOTOSHOP USAGE OR ADDING OF EFFECTS BELONGS IN THE COOL STUFF THREAD: Minor effects like adding eye-glow or such is fine, but the spirit of this thread is to showcase photography, not image editing. Please post heavily modified images in the Cool Stuff thread instead.
    POSTS WHICH DO NOT MEET THE ESTABLISHED GUIDELINES MAY BE MOVED TO ANOTHER THREAD OR REMOVED: It's nothing personal, but this thread is designed to have a separate personality from the Cool Stuff thread with an emphasis on quality and helping your fellow TFW board member get things "just right." "Third Party" products are acceptable in this thread.

    We may adjust the guidelines going forward. But for the meantime, take some photos and have fun!

    Doing a shoot of the 2015 boxset and ironically, Packrat is looking the best despite being my least favorite. Time for edits!

    really digging the scourge pics WW! i want more takara cons!!

    i hope you arent disappointed in them. theyre my bread and butter!! aside from mps... that is. you made em look friggin awesome!!

    im not big on the cyberverse sized figures very much but i absolutely LOVE this mold and i have two of the three that you have pictured. may i suggest that you look into the shapeways spoiler that they made for rodimus? i have it for mine (i RARELY buy add-ons for my toys) and it really makes a difference and he stands out alot with it. just a suggestion too. yer pics are sweet too btw...

    It is an excellent color scheme, I must admit. If I were a Beast Wars fan, I'd be in love. Though photographing him has made me appreciate him much more.

    I want Turmoil SO bad, and your pics aren't helping my wallet, TJ! :drool: 

    Can't wait to start doing more "stylish" pics with my new setup. Wanna get some more lights and maybe a sheet of glass to go on the bottom.
