Great stuff man, do you have a 3/4 view of the Queen?

Here's another pic I have:



Here's one compared to Palisades' large sized queen:

Awesome stuff. Are you also getting the Predator Maquette?

Man. SS queen put that Palisade's Large Queen to shame

HOLY MOLY!
That's an ALIEN Armada!

I am amazed with your collection. Utterly.
Yeah, that Queen is too much! has perfect colors too.
Nice stuff.

Hey, thanks Les! I'd post my non-sideshow stuff, but wasn't sure if it's okay?

I'm really excited to add the Aliens 1:1 bust to my colelction

Love to see an A L I E N fan that puts the Aliens ahead of the Colonial Marines...
Plus, you got some doozies mate!

I'm working on my pics of my varied set. Hope you will like them too.

Beautiful photos. They look so professional.

Thanks, mang. I'm gonna re-shoot my queeny this weekend. I bought a new camera, so wanna see how the pics differ.

Any better and the QueenA will be jumping through your camera and our screens.

Awesome pieces!!! :chew

Thanks, guys. We'll see what appens!

Okay, here are some new pics. Click em to make bigger:

I'm not sure it is wise to wet your statues just to make shiny photos!


seriously: Great pictures man! Are these "clean pictures" or a bit touched up? And what do you use for lighting and background?

Great pics!!!!!!!!!


Oh and BTW, feel free to post all of your pics. Just because our name is Sideshowcollectors doesn't mean that's all we collect

Thanks guys! Where's the "blushing" smilie?

Cool, I'll post my other pieces then!

@xeno...these pics are are pretty much raw. Only for the full body shots did I use the "smart sharpen" filter in photoshop, as they came out just a tad fuzzy.

Since the queen is so big, I couldn't use my photo tent, which helps diffuse the lighting. So, I setup some lamps, then put a thin white cloth between them and the queeny to try and soften the light. The background is just a huge piece of fabric I got from the fabric store. I angled it at about 45 degrees to reduce shadows and light reflection (read that in a photo tutorial).

A good photographer and camera make ALL the difference. Amazing job, really... I won't even post pix of my collectables any more unless my photographer buddy takes them. Nice work man.
