How to make Miniature Paint Tutorial Videos by Lester Bursley

After much request and buying a new HD webcam this video has surfaced. The webcam is a Microsoft Life Cam Cinema. I love this camera as you can tell in the video but the basics of shooting video are there also. You will notice that much of the setup is the same as if you wanted to take nice pictures of models.

@techtalk09 I'm not sure what he uses, but a blob of Blu-tac works well

Hey Les

Old video but I hope you are still commenting comments..

Cool workstation you have there. In the video you mention you use a jewellers magnifying-visor.

What branch and how much magnification do you use?

Im thinking about getting a set but am a little unsure if they are useful at all

[techtalk09]

how do you stick the model to the handle?
