In the Style of Ben Thomas



As an attempt of inspiration, I want to emulate his work. I don't have the right materials that can simulate his photos but that didn't stop me.


"SCV-70" is one of my favorite photos that Ben had created. It's colorful and feels futuristic. I try to create something similar but I don't have a toy robot to use as a subject. However, I used a Star-Lord figurine to substitute the robot. 



This is the inspiration for "SCV-70". I don't want to make it too vibrant and bright or else it would look unnatural. However, I made an attempt to make it look bright and bold as possible. I used a Star-Lord figurine as my subject because the helmet he has on makes him look kind of like a robot. I used Photoshop to increase the brightness, vibrancy, and contrast to match with the colors and editing of Ben's photo. 

When taking a photo in Ben's style, it's important to imitate the vibrancy and brightness, just like in the inspiration photo. I focused mostly on the colors, composition, and editing in my remake. I had trouble in not making it too bright and bold or else it would hurt people's eyes. I want to make it bright enough to be like "SCV-70" is. But, I think I tried my best.
