When I posted my build of the Tamiya 48th 'birdcage" Corsair a few days ago, I'd used pieces of black signboard (the subject was fairly light-colored). I recently got a hold of some WHITE signboard, so I wanted to see how it looked with a dark subject matter.

This is one of my desktop models and since Corsairs seemed to be all the rage of late, I decided to pick this one as the "experiment-ee" (besides, it's dark). I think with a little more tweaking, I can make it work. This was a rush job. Thanks for your indulgence.

Thanks, Paul...the lamp I'm using IS florescent. Actually, I "acquired" it from the wife who was gonna use it for needlework and never did. It clamps to the side of the bench and is [sorta] flexible. It has two brightness settings and works great for what I need. Maybe not the best light for photography, though. I usually take photos outside whenever I can.
