Built a lightbox earlier today, these are some of the first shots I took with it. Obviously I should photoshop the dust out, but I just wanted to get some feedback on the lighting.

Man, that looks pretty good. I might try some plexiglass on the bottom with the black ones.

The lightbox is fun, isn't it? I remember when I first set mine up and got some shots!

Thanks for the feedback. most of the pictures I have done so far are very clip arty. my next step is to try to use the box for some creative shooting.

I agree. Look at the knife & Browning threads here for some more interesting lighting:

Here are a couple more I did yesterday. I'm still trying to figure out the best way to do the lighting so that there are no unsightly reflections...
