ooh

when did you get some alienbees?

thats really well done sidd

every time i try to use one light like that, i always f**k it up and put it off to an angle too much and create a huge shadow on one side of their face LOL

Had it for a week and a bit now. Been meaning to buy them for more than a year.

I still havnt received half my gear yet (PLM, softbox etc). So that picture was with jsut a white umbrella. Then my stuipd cactus v4s didnt work for a bit, so couldnt use the other light. So in the end i used just one light source for 90% of the pics. But then the internal slave should have kicked in on the alien bees, but it didnt. Maybe im doing something wrong.

Anyways im in the process of building up a studio:

The backdrop is out only half way. I still got a few more meters in front.

Nice work guys. Been sitting in a few model shoots my mates has been doing, it's pretty interesting work!

Its hard work tho. Apart from lighting, you gotta make sure the makeup, the outfits, the location is all correct. Then gotta make sure the model can pose and interact with the camera propely.

But very rewarding when you get everything right in the end.

there is nothing worse than awkward models and bad makeup :)

    • The 296mm rotors are the R33 turbo brakes. The 310mm rotors are the R34 turbo brakes. The calipers are nearly the same, but not. They're the same caliper but the R34 caliper has longer legs so that it sits out far enough to go over the rotor. The pads are the same for both. When you say, "I bough tsome EBC"....did you just mean pads? Or rotors? 310mm rotors fit under 17" wheels. There may be some wheels without enough clearance though. I can't fit my fingers between the barrel of my wheel and the "corners" of my R34 calipers, but there is plenty of room behind the spokes. This is on Enkei RPF1. You can fit 324mm rotors inside a 17" wheel, but I'd be willing to bet that it would be close to impossible with the Nissan/Sumitomo caliper (using an adapter, of course), because the Sumitomo caliper is fatter than the Brembo caliper that is supposed to go on the 324mm rotors.
    • Hi. Can someone tell me what brakes(and mainly WHERE) can i buy brakes on R34 GTT? I bought some EBC which SHOULD go on my car(i have GT but it has GTT brakes) but it does not fit, Brakes are "too" small(296mm) Are 310mm be good or? I have 17 inch wheel so no "big boys" but for me driving i just need one that fits and i can get here in EU/Czech.
    • Since winter isn't that harsh anymore in Poland, i will definetely drive it 365 days a year 😉. But if the snow hits i will try it for sure and let U know. Only swap i am planning to do is of course R34 GTR front 😍.
    • Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 🙏 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 😉. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 😍 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car
