Inspired by a couple of model kit builds I've seen in recent years, most recently at Bricktastic where somebody took the Concorde set from 2023 and put it in a 'box' with sprues and all. This has been on my list ever since, but since I've seen model kit MOCs for planes and Bandai figures, I thought I'd try my hand at a car. Everything here is Lego asides from the Citadel paints (which I was unable to convert into brick form, and not for lack of trying 😛), although admittedly the sprues are among the most fragile things I've built in recent memory.
C&C welcome as always.

1/60 F1.8 640 85mm
Location: The Veemgebouw in Eindhoven. This location includes the ground floor of a vershal, where small shops sell their products, a nice location with different atmospheric delights, a location is a Wine & Nut position.
In this entire shoot, I made use of the light that enters the building through the windows and the present can light.
You can play here quite nicely with the environment and by putting objects of focus in the foreground (repoussoir), give more depth to an image.
This location I will visit often.

This was a still-life set-up that I took a close-up of and then processed in Topaz Software to make it appear authentic. It involved two plastic model tanks set up inside a lightbox.
I got the opportunity to photograph Cameron Sarradet who is a model as well as a photographer. He has the talent for both and is awesome at what he does! He also has modeled for American Eagle Outfitters a few times. Cameron is a great guy and totally rocked his shoot! I had a lot of fun photographing him and I'm glad I was able to get the chance to work with him!
If you have a moment check out his Flickr. His work is great!
I'll be honest: 2021 sucked. In many ways I am blessed, with my family and friends and I had a few good moments in the summer, again, with family and friends. However, I struggled with the limitations due to the pandemic and with the effect it had on my work and my general well-being. Fortunately some changes are at hand in terms of work, with my role changing.
When it comes to LEGO building this was an unusual year too. I built a lot less than last year and I couldn't muster much interest in building large or complicated aircraft models. Instead I turned my attention to building smaller things. I built a few 1/22 scale cars, but all of my other builds were minifig scale, with me trying my hand at some minifig scale military vehicles / missile launchers, as well as civilian trucks and earth-moving equipment.
A few highlights in the collection are the XV-15 tiltrotor, powered with Circuit Cubes and the Teracruzer TEL/ Mace cruise missile.
I'm not sure what next year will bring, but I am looking at a 1/22 scale helicoper, a British AA recovery truck and a new minifig scale aircraft.

1/1000 F1.8 1000 85mm
Location: The Veemgebouw in EIndhoven. This is very diverse location, where you can make beautiful atmospheric pictures, small shops focused on food.
This photo I made in a pub that is present at this location. On the left you have big windows where the light comes in and I played by vignetting in post processing with the light.

The photo was taken at the same location as an earlier photo where Vera is sitting on the stairs. In this photo she is closer to the lighting, making the light more intense and the background darker.
The daylight that shines into the building through a window ensures that her hair, forehead and nose bridge are nicely accentuated.
By turning her body to the shadow and her face to the light, she has direction where the light ends up.
I'm thrilled to be partnering with En Femme, the premier clothing brand for the crossdresser and trans woman!
