Topic: Gaming Tat (...Return of the Tat!)

@RogerRoger I do generally favour Sony, but Samsung phone cameras are incredible.
I found a few of my posts to Eaglemoss' fb page. I'll get them up later. Took them with a Sony DX10 Lens Cam.

The light is cheap on think geek at the mo. Both that and the Bluetooth communicator were gifts from my Mrs 😊

@RogerRoger
One of the very best alien race ships in Trek:

@KALofKRYPTON Oh, goodness yes, the D'deridex-Class might be my all-time favourite alien ship design (and would still be if they'd kept the original design, whereby the wings were vertical instead of horizontal). Although I do also adore the K'tinga-Class, the Klingon Raptor, the Andorian Kumari-Type, the Borg Diamond, the 22nd Century Romulan Bird-of-Prey, the Xindi-Reptilian Battleship and the Kazon Raider, but it's certainly a contender. They're my top, er... eight.

Wow. I'm a nerd.

Thanks for the heads-up regarding ThinkGeek. I won't go looking because then money will start to rapidly disappear from my wallet / bank account, which is where it probably should stay put for now. My Eaglemoss XL Starships (amongst a few other things) were surprises from my boyfriend, too. We're lucky geeks to have understanding and supportive partners!

@RogerRoger 'tolerance' is probably the best word in my case, but she knew what she was getting in to! 😂
Sure? I think it was down to $17 the other day. Also comes with a Constellation Enterprise acrylic.

I really took some decent shots through the Eaglemoss run! 😂😂

And some terrible Photoshop Touch ones! Though this still really makes me giggle 😊

This looks neat, Okami vinyl box set on the Switch.

@RogerRoger I have a Huawei P20 Pro and it really stands out is with its camera, a triple-lens 40MP + 20MP + 8MP beast that's capable of some super shots. Shame it's wasted on me as I rarely take photos.

@KALofKRYPTON You weren't kidding; that is an awesome shot of DS9, really nicely done! And the second shot made me chuckle, too, so well-played!

@JohnnyShoulder Thanks for the camera phone recommendation! Unfortunately, my OCD prevents me from buying or using technology that isn't Sony and so, when I upgrade early next year, it'll be to whatever the best Sony option is at the time. Appreciated all the same!

@RogerRoger
I've been having a deeper dive and can't find any of the original images sadly. Some of the fb ones must be buried in comments threads and such. Still, managed to get a few.

The Delta Flyer is a great model.

NX-01, probably the best of the early line up.

I remeber trying several ways to shoot the E and finding it really difficult. Could probably do something with an actual camera and a macro lens. Found in the end I really liked this keyboard shot.

Collage I can't find the separate shots for.

Now for the two best pictures (of tat/stuff) I've ever taken and forgot about!

Bit of vapor, balanced the light just right and a bit of pixlr filtering.

And this was completely in camera. No filters or post processing.

I'm the type to usually keep everything. Going to check through thumb drives etc to see if I have any of the original images as there were loads more.

And these two. Forgot how nice the probe was!

@KALofKRYPTON Awesome stuff!!!

@RogerRoger @KALofKRYPTON i would love to show off some of mine but unfortunately i really don't have any decent camera but your are looking great, you got some really nice shots there

@FullbringIchigo you can get decent with a lot of phone cameras. Turn off your flash, use in room lighting (even from your TV in a dim room) and have a play with manual settings.

_{Language -Tasuki-}

@KALofKRYPTON Let's watch the language, ok?

@Tasuki Huh?

@KALofKRYPTON Maybe he is asking you to watch an Open University programme on language?

@Tasuki
@JohnnyShoulder

So, this? I tapped it out on my phone in a rush before I left for work:

• should have read '...decent shots with a lot of phones...'. I'm assuming my autocorrect made 'shots' in to something else?

Didn't notice, sorry - but that's obviously unintentional.

@KALofKRYPTON FUN FACT: i don't actually have a mobile phone that can take pictures, for me all a phone needs to do is call another phone so that's what i brought a cheap £10 phone that lets me call other people

i don't have any need for all the other crap phones have now a days

@FullbringIchigo Maverick!

I like the idea - but I use my phone for the majority of my day to day personal computing/entertainment. The couple of times in the past decade or so where I've used a 'dumbphone' were rather liberating, but equally infuriating!

@KALofKRYPTON i like the freedom it gives me, when i'm out i can actually look around and enjoy the view instead of having me eyes glued on a phone screen like many seem to have now a days

living in the country helps because there are some damn nice views around where i live

Gosh the Metal Gear Solid art book arrived today (it's a gift for someone). It's quite a time - much bigger and heavier than I was expecting!

For taking photos I just use my phone now, although my preference would be a proper camera. I used to have an expensive Panasonic one, but never replaced it when it broke. Samsung phone cameras are good, but there was a bug on my last Samsung (an S5) where it had trouble focusing.

@KALofKRYPTON Apologies for being late to the party, but those follow-up Eaglemoss shots you posted the other day are incredible! I'm getting serious "emerging from the Praxis shockwave" vibes from that particular photograph of the Reliant. Getting the nacelles to glow like that, against the dark and smokey background, is some beautiful work!
