I have taken some photos of my printed final model. I wanted to light my model from the inside/behind to make make it illuminate like a building. In order to achieve this I first used a light on a cellphone to light it from the back as I needed a small light as my model is so small. I then lit the model from underneath with a large light, I then cut a small hole in a piece of cardboard and put a piece of paper over it, which I then place over the light and place my model over the light coming through the hole in the cardboard. This achieved the desired amount of light.

This image is lit from the side with the cellphone. I like the blue colouring and the reflection however it doesn't really achieve the effect I want as this looks cold and icy.

This is lit from behind, it has a good reflection which is what I was wanting to achieve to make it seem taller + it is similar to city images which are alongside water where it is reflected. This is similar to my precedent images of the city scape. The lighting for this image is a little bit too low.

This is lit directly in the centre which is what I wanted. I think this sets out close to what I  was wanting to achieve and I think I may use this as my final.

This image is lit from underneath. I like the glow around it, and I like how the windows are distinctly lit up, however I don't like the yellowy tinge.

This is similar to the above image but I prefer the focus on this image, as it draws attention to the extruded windows.

The lights a little too off centre.

This image gives an alternative view on my model. I think the illuminate column in the centre is quite successful and the contrast of the light of the model and the background.

This is a fairly plain view of my model with direct lighting.

For this image and the one below I tried to capture the reflection of the model so the angle of the camera is high.
