    To shoot our architectural models we made a totally scuffed lightbox with four pieces of mounting card gaffer taped together, a bit of A1 plotter paper for the backdrop, and a cannibalised lighting rig made from a flash softbox with a desklamp hanging out the back.

    I used my A6000 with a cheap arse 35mm lens. Shots turned out fine after some post work in Lr, although for the next round I'll hassle someone to buy a couple of LED lights. Our office has windows on all sides, so finding a space where we can control the light is near impossible. I take the staff photos in the cloakroom next to the bogs because it is literally the only place that doesn't get hit by sunlight.

    • I did some like that in my kitchen, but it was a masking tape extravaganza, I don't often have to do it but the one Utopian posted looks way easier.PhanLo
    • It was fun, we just smashed it all together from shit lying about the office and our model room. I'm going to engineer a new one that can be dismantled.face_melter
