Restricted Area

For this photo I sculpted the alien with epoxy clay, then I made the background with everything I could find that would pass as "spaceship" stuff (I used pencils, batteries, lids, etc). I painted the whole thing gray and silver.

for the floor I borrowed some griddles from the kitchen and I distributed them over a black piece of fabric so they would look rather convincing.

This is how the alien looked before the paint.

Equipment Setup:

Camera: Canon 5DIII

Lens: Canon 50mm

Flash: 1 Lumopro LP160, 1 Cactus AF50 (which I don't recommend), And a Clairex

Flash trigger: Cactus v5

Invasion!

Invasion!

To make this photo I used several layers to compose the final image, I glued together two plastic plates and painted it to make it look like a flying saucer. I used a smoke machine to blend better the UFO with the clouds from the background.

Equipment Setup:

Camera: Canon 40D

Lens: Sigma 17-35 DG HSM

Flash: Lumopro LP160 @ full power and a Clairex Flash
