Never rest on your laurels.A little less than a year and a half ago, having recently gotten both the S.H. Figuarts Pac-Man and the Indiana Jones Adventure Collection Marion Ravenwood (ant the entire wave with the Build-An-Ark), I had an idea. I had this idea. But in June 2023, my skills and tools were limited. So I made this, and loved it:
I mean, I never loved the background. I could never find something that looked right, and I tried to make something with an AI image generator, and it wasn’t right.
So I applied my new toolset. Starting with a version of Raiders I could screengrab, scrubbing through it to find the two shots (totaling maybe two seconds)that show the physical relationship between the pole, the Ark, and the Nazis. Erased Indy and Marian from the best of the two shots, took new pictures of Pac-Man and Mariann, tooks a bunch more pics of the plastic ghost that came with the Pac-Man with tons of angles, and got to work.
Biggest thing was making ghost sets in all four colors. Then it was just placement, spirit trails, and lighting. Also took a new picture of the Build An Ark and placed it (inaccurately, you can’t really see the Ark in this shot).
It MIGHT be too busy. Probably is too busy. But I can always dial back the number of ghosts in the future if I want. Still a definite improvement.
