That's really awesome. I love how you acheived depth-of-field with this picture. The addition of the barrier-railing in the foreground adds a lot to the diorama effect of the whole picture. Truly terrific work!!!

Questions: Did the Hasbro Night Vipers come with that paint on their scopes and visors? I only own Funskool NVs cause I'm lame. Also, what IS that building in the background -- is it the product of Photoshop tricks, or is it a real diorama piece of some kind?

The paint apps on the visors are a little custom touch I added. As for the building in the background, it's just a photo of an old factory with a Cobra sigil pasted on. Then it's a case of a trick I have used before with varying degrees of success; I played around with the picture to get it how I wanted and then printed it. Then I simply stuck it on the wall and posed the figures in front of it in a darkened room for the photo. (The lighting for this type of shot is explained in the How To section, for anyone who is interested.) This method is a little hit and miss though. Sometimes it looks great, other times it looks a little flat. That's why I added the railings to give some depth to the picture.
