I’m among the lucky ones who got a few minifigures for creative review. I’m very thankful that Mickey & Minnie, and Hercules & Hades found their way to me.
The figures
They are all great fun to photograph because I like the characters. I really like how Hades’s hair lights up in a photo with the right lighting. And Hercules’ warm colors really fit his character.
Mickey and Minnie are classics. It’s fun to see them in black & white and use them in colorful situations.
Mickey & Minnie
When I opened the package and saw Minnie for the first time, my first thought was that she is topless :O How come no one ever notices it? Or am I the last one to notice it?
Hercules & Hades
Photographing them
Taking these photos was both hard and fun for me at times.
Hard because I had to climb a hill for that sunset. I had to brace the wind which toppled minifigures, made my eyes cry and my fingers cold. And I had to find a spot where there weren’t people in the view. It’s a very popular hill around here, the perfect sunset view in this part of town.
It was also fun because I grabbed my Christmas lights and put them on my induction cooktop. I had so much fun with all the reflections. Who else is using normal household stuff in unexpected ways in their photos? Please share in comments ;)
Having fun with little pieces of plastic in Czech republic and anywhere else. Prone to random dancing.
I love the idea of the induction cooktop. Have to try it one time to see the reflections. Ours is very much scratched though :)
Cool series :)
Ours is a bit scratched too and there are lines on it (so you know where the zones are), but somehow it’s not so visible with low light :) I was surprised how well it worked :) And it was so much fun!
