Hey, guys.
As you know, I'm working on the Battle Companies Update, with the intention of making it a complete downloadable expansion. Now that I have completed all the faction sheets, it is time to start collecting some graphic elements that will eventually go into the .pdf file. What I am needing is for people to volunteer to take photos of their miniatures that would show what a starting company would look like. For instance, I will probably do the Mordor Battle Company myself, since I have plenty of painted models, so what I will do is assemble the models needed (3x Orcs with shield, 3x Orcs with spears, 2x Orcs with two-handers, and 2x Orcs with Orc bows) and pose them on some nice terrain and take a photo of the group "in action" so to speak. If you are willing to assist and would like to have some of your miniatures featured in the publication, just post here to let me know what company you will be doing and and then take your pictures and post them in this thread. Things to keep in mind before volunteering:
1. Minis should be painted to a high standard, and placed/posed on nice terrain.
2. Photos should be clear and well-lit.
3. You could depict your company engaging another company if you so choose (to show off more of your models of course).
4. Look at GW pictures in the journey and sourcebooks for inspiration. I am trying to replicate that level/quality of photography as best I can.
5. You will be credited as a contributor in the final publication.
6. I am trying to get as many contributors as possible, so please only volunteer for one company (although it may be that down the road we may need to fill some holes, so somebody may end up doing more than one.)

). I wouldn't mind painting up a Warg Rider starting company for you, but then we have the problem of being placed on terrain. I have none, and I never go to a local store so wouldn't be able to get any pictures with any either. So your probably better off not using me as I'm probably not the best man for the job. Still, good luck collecting all the images you need. If I can help in any other way, just let me know and I'll see what I can do.
