Dear miniature painters, I am yet again annoyed about my pro pictures not being pro enough. There is always something... off. My current obsession is lighting (or better yet, shadows). So here's a question for whoever can answer me:
I take my pictures with the same wide lamp I use for painting (and a secondary weaker source lighting the back to avoid front-rear shadows)
I wonder if instead a super wide lamp it would be better to have two light sources 45º from each side in the front.
Has anyone tried both and can share some thoughts?
Thx!
