This image isn't one of the lesser - but at least it was possible with a longtime exposue (in Live Comp mode), despite dull winter light shining into the kitchen. However, the whole set up as well the light painting tools didn't come out as i had in mind. Nevertheless, it was mainly a test to see if i can do longtime exposures in dull winterlight indoors. Which worked. Together with a 8x gray filter. However, due to that filter, the light painting tool lights had to be a lot stronger (mainly the warm lite torch), in order to make any effects on the faces of the figures.

Oh boy - I need to exercise endlessly mooooore. Everything still looks "clumsy" and "primitive" regarding the colors and light effects from the black Light painting brush.

 

As of now, Storm is already flying in the air

- because i used my old thingy - sort of magnetic clamps which you can bend. Originally i bought those in roder to hold up leafs and flowers for super macro photography. They came in handy, as Storm is now floating in the air. The drawback with the grip arms are, that they only open very little. I had to grip Storm's hair in order to get the figure up into the air with help of those arms.
