Daily Photo: Early Steam Rat (Incomplete)

I had my second model shoot tonight. Over the past three days, we sorted out costuming, a shoot location, and actually did the shoot. The model, Michelle, was fantastic to work with, and I look forward to working with her in future projects. I am planning to make her character in the Roundbottom storylines a somewhat important one, so I suspect we’ll be shooting again soon. The other all-star hero of this shoot was Sarah, who is pretty much responsible for the costuming here. She’s a genius a putting this stuff together quickly. I think we’re going to do some shoots of her characters, Miss Watkins, very soon. Miss Watkins will also be narrating a field recordings podcast as part of the Roundbottom project. Right I’m just building my inventory of photos and written pieces and podcasts ideas up unti I have 3 months of constant work to be released on a weekly basis.
Note that this is not a complete Roundbottom image and in fact isn’t very close to the way I do the sepia on those other images. This is a quick and dirty look, just to get a feel on which images I want to develop further in Photoshop. The real Roundbottom images are going to take some time. I was looking, and out of a little over 90 shots, I flagged 45 as picks. That’s an unbelievable ratio of good shots. I have some serious culling to do…
