Description
Had a big photo shoot today of this diorama. Most figures are from the Sanderson Crecy set. They are now permanently mounted on a squarish board.
Scenery is twigs, cat litter (unused), and various lichens from model railroading.
The real battle was fought on a muddy field after an all-night rainstorm. I'm not sure if the following day was overcast, but that is the effect I wanted to convey.
Available light digital photo modified with PP9 DCE. Kodak digital camera.
Heavy use of elephant skin texture to original
image.
Additional treatment to a dark purple frame with about 45% opacity and total feathering turned 45 degrees. The effect is to create a diamond-shaped
'hole' in the center of the image. I find this useful for framing the central figures.
This topped with a black square vignette frame of moderate transparency.
Off-scene spots in upper corners and at center bottom. Orangish at the bottom and grayish at the top. Yes, using black and / or gray lights makes
a difference.
Additionally an overall gray atmospere was added to the lighting effects.

Just FYI, the elephant skin texture was set to 20% aging, and 319 randomizer with a black underlay. The higher settings cause the 'cracks' to be closer together. A lower setting, IMO, tends to more closely resemble a painting. Diff color underlays can have dramatic changes to the overall atmosphere.
