I wouldn't give them enough credit to know anything but the most basic photo techniques.

Also, I doubt they went to the expense of buying a yellow laser pointer.

Unless they show how this was made, I'm assuming photoshop

Even if it is a laser pointer, that isn't tangible. You can't look at that setup and see the light effects. It's practically photoshop

Their photos have gotten stale, nothing new or inventive can happen when you limit yourself so much. Everyone submits the same kinda shit.

A lot of them use it as an identity, "reppin" that stupid ass logo every where they go.

They shill BBTS and their shitty prices all the time.

They started a webstore in which they sell shitty cutouts that anyone with half a brain can make, and charge out the ass for bent metal wire and advertise them as "flight stands". They have even started two buy-in giveaways to raise funds so they can scalp full cases of ML and sell them to retards who can't get a preorder in anywhere else.

Thing is, ACBA isn't "professional" or groundbreaking. Yet they go around acting like they're the only people who know how to take real toy photos. Can't speak for the other anons, but it's not their pics that annoy me it's their attitude.

There are plenty of people on /toy/ who take amazing pics and have real talent when it comes to composing a scene, making backgrounds and displays, and customizing. There are usually general threads constantly dedicated to these things, and most of the time there are anons willing to help out those who want to learn.

So to answer your question, yes /toy/ is known for its quality photos and sharing techniques. Anybody who bothers to hang out here would probably know that though.

They may as well have just used photoshop. You'd get a better result and you're still shitting on the whole tangible focus of their photos with light painting.

Hell, I still feel that using cutouts for anything that isn't text ruins their theme.

They keep using character cutouts more and more as a substitute for figures or posing. It's awful and it just makes the whole composition clash.

I hope you mean "quality" in the sense that they're okay and just average.
Ive never seen anything impressive here.

Plus, there's so many people where who just use images they found from elsewhere.

>Can't speak for the other anons, but it's not their pics that annoy me it's their attitude.
You don't sound obsessive, so you definitely can't speak for them.

Also, i think the only image that has ever impressed me enough to save it to my wallpapers folder is one of SpiderMan chasing one of the Goblins down.
Other than that, it's just simple stuff like this, which technically didn't come from here, but is from one of our regs.

Yeah the main guys have some ghetto practices, understandable, it's a brand and they're trying to get something out of it, you'd be a retard if you buy into all that.

But the craft itself is pretty much harmless fun if you ask me, most stuff you see there is vastly superior to what you see anywhere else.

>There are usually general threads constantly dedicated to these things, and most of the time there are anons willing to help out those who want to learn.
I can't disagree there, they're pretty catty in that ACBA group, but it's understandable when everyday a dozen of so of people get in, ask the same question and make the same mistakes without reading the rules, which are retardedly simple: crop, pose, use backdrops, that's it.

The spiderman pic was pretty much my last straw for this. I'd been saying they were getting way too into using cutouts for a while and suddenly we have pictures that are composed so heavily of cutouts that the figures are unnecessary.

It only works with art that was always non-scene stuff, like sound effects and word bubbles. Why do toy photography if you are going to take pictures of paper cutouts.

I went through the photo thread before even making that post.
Nothing impressive. Just okay and average stuff, if it isn't poor shit.

There are very few people on this board who attempt to do anything, and probably the most innovative person is that guy who takes pictures of GI Joes and MegaBlok figures outside. Even then, they're not well done (camera to blame), but they're interesting at least.
Pic related is basic as hell, but it does a job at showing off what he wants to do everytime he takes a photo of his figures.

Sure that PR shot is cool, but man, I don't know if you've been in the ACBA group for long, but that's nothing compared to what I see there every day.

I'm not shilling, I don't even take pics, I just like to look, and I'm not trying to put down one platform over another, I like toy photo in general, but if you make me choose, that ACBA group is still miles ahead anywhere else if you ask me.

That AVP and Chienese robot pics aren't really anything remarkable, sorry.

With ACBA, you get baseline good pics, but none are that interesting. They're a lot of alleyway fight scenes with flavor of the month Legends and import figures.

With the photo thread here, you get like 70% garbage quality/shitty posed pics, 20% good stuff, and 10% phenomenal photos with interesting subject matter.

I've been on /toy/ since the very beginning, hence my being able to identify various people just by the settngs and figures they use, such as tapeonhismonitoranon who has a ton of money to spend on mecha and joes and that former GI Joe fan who switched to megabloks.
So I've seen just about everything /toy/ has to offer.

>>5770479
completely average.
There's so many techniques, lighting, and backgrounds that can be used that are never attempted here.

Now that i have thought about it a little more, the model threads probably offer the best photos no /toy/, if only because that stuff is harder to shoot and hte fact some of them actually attempt to use (make) dioramas.

Are you going to pretend that's lowbrow and unoriginal compared to anime girls doing lewd stuff?

>>5770505
Really? Because in that other thread there's not a single pic that's inside that supposed 10% you mention.

In fact, there are only 2 or 3 that could be considered good imo.

I just went to the group and the first pic I see, which was submitted a minute ago, is MUCH better than anything in that other thread.

It's a troll thread, because OP was reminded about ABCA and felt bad about it, so he needs other people to confirm their hate and thus, feel better about whatever inadequacies they have.
It's as dumb as Hasbro and Greg Hate threads, hence my original post to point out how bitter you guys sound.

Someone claimed using a longer exposure time isn't a basic and common technique, especially one that is simple as fuck as OP's (which it isn't anyway) and it snowballed about how /toy/ is full of impressive photographers and known internet-wide.

That one guy who took photos of his cars, that is actually impressive? No longer here, probably thanks to the grudges people here can't let go of.

Prior to the screencaps, boog showed up and REFUSED to read the thread and just assumed it was people shitting on their photos and challenging people to photo contests until he left, then that guy showed up and called everyone criticizing ACBA sad and jealous and being a colossal dick. The thread was about their stupid wire stands and some other stupid shit they sell. Within the context of the thread, the ACBA guys had absolutely ZERO ground to stand on for everything they were doing, which was a lot of shit flinging.

That's where the wire stand meme came from.

I'm not arguing the main dudes are dumb douchebags, they are, especially their little circle who started it all, and it used to be much worse, and they take themselves so seriously it's sad.

But the rest of the people there are bros and the pics are cool.

But now that I know that boog dude came here personally to defend that shit, I know why the hate lol

The rest of the people you are talking about are not the people making an identity out of ACBA.

That's obviously not the group people have problems with. Nobody has an issue with the people who just treat it like a place to post photos like a sane person.

It was funny when he came here. Kinda felt like he thought he'd have some sort of authority or something.

No shit? Because it looks like it.
Seems people here are only impressed by the neon lighting, because you can't tell what the thing in the background is. technically, it's a bad photo.
I get what they're trying to do, but it's just a jumble of colors and shadow. There's nothing recognizable about it, unlike something properly shot like this.

>>5771729
I dont think anyone has defended ABCD, it's more of responses to people making stupid claims like >"That was top tier," or how /toy/ is known for its techniques, but because of the low quality work, they defend their work by stating "name something that acba has done that's better!" Hence, your belief that anyone is defending them.

I despise the kind of people at ACBA and think most of their work is shit but let's not pretend /toy/ is any better when we are not even a cohesive community and the few good photographers here are a rarity. They are better than the guys at ACBA but that doesn't mean they represent /toy/ as a group.

My personal favorite:

"The term 'Articulated Comic Book Art' was coined by Kendel Gray aka Boog Nice and is his registered Trademark with the USPTO. He is the pioneer of the art form. The term has come to represent a growing venture of action figure display art and has subsequently popularized display art across the globe."

Not taking Sides, I post in ACBA and here.

I think ACBA gets a lot of stick because the rules are strict, one shot at a time, no PS etc etc.

Also I don't usually get much love there because I post Acid Rain and Spartans lol (1:18 AND not comic book characters).

But regardless of the users, Boog the dude who runs it took a liking to my outdoor stuff and customs and features my stuff sometimes, so I respect ACBA for that - not just sharing comic stuff, the management do like variety which is good!

So you're one of the lazy faggots that takes outdoor shots with blades of grass as tall as their figures.

Just look at the picture you posted. Sticks, rocks and grass are so much bigger than the subjects of your photo.

How does it feel to be complete shit?

This is why the photo threads on /toy/ are so awful. Too many people who pretend they know something and the general negative reaction that prevents people from posting.
It's why the best photos usually come from the normal threads themselves, which isn't saying much.

Also, go outside more. Grass gets tall as fuck.
The other guy who posts outdoor pics of his megabloks actually does a better job, since he keeps the perspective relative to the toy's height (ground), instead of hovering at man playing with toys height.

You know, I've always thought Sky Lynx would work really well if he turned into a B-52 or a Tupolev "Bear". Cockpit becomes head, tail becomes, uh, tail, legs fold out from underside of body, wings become, well, wings...

I dunno. I like him as a space shuttle but the whole launch crawler thing is kinda whack, and there aren't enough Transformers that turn into big military aircraft.
