GURPS: SEAL's in Vietnam 1/35 Character Study.

This is Ensign Dietrich, we've seen him before as I worked on the figure.

He started here:

Notice the sling!  I have to say that brass foil is vastly inferior to the lead foil we used to be able to get when I was in high school.  Damned health and safety assholes.

I also hate advances in photography.  This guy looks great in person, but the illusion is not so apt with mega-macro engaged.

  1. Have you tried running the photo through a softening filter?

  2. My camera doesn't really have any filters available for it. Canon left provisions for things like that, but only a wide-angle and a zoom were ever released.

  3. Try a software package like Photoscape.

    It is free and offers a wide variety of processing tools.
