i was just giving you some tips. just simple changes and itll make it look alot better! from what absolut said he doesnt use a light box, he just had 2 pieces of paper.
A slight bit of miscommunication here, I do use a light box(if you really wanna call it that) and what I use for a backdrop is 2 pieces of paper. :D

lighting was hard to get cause all i was using was the light coming from the ceiling. hopefully i will be getting a dslr soon(d40)

sry for the big pics

(this is the first time i had ever tried this, tell me what u think.)
I think these are awesome for your first try, given your lighting they look realllly good, great job man.

ah, that sucks. if it wasnt for your lighting being incandescent i think ud be fine with the whitebalance too
If he had a DSLR he would be fine, simple change of the white balance setting would do the job. My pics are always a slight bit orange/pink before they hit my computer, a temperature change usually does the trick though.

My home made "Studio in a box"...
Took a cardboard, cut the sides out and used tracing paper to cover.
Then got some white construction paper for the seamless.

Gear:
40D w/ 28-135mm
580exII left
Vivitar right.
Triggered with Cactus V2's

1/250 f20 ISO100 @80mm

The vivitar was only Full power, so i had to match that output on my 580exII. Hence the f20.

Phil's .40 cal Handgun.

I made my box at a friends house and while i was transporting it home i poked the paper. Havent fixed it yet.

I should get a fabric to replace it, i have some rip stop nylon in my garage from when i made a light modifier.

I bet if someone really wanted to they could use 4 sheets of printer paper and tape them into a cube without a bottom or front for their light box. All they would need other than the printer paper would be a more rectangular piece of black or white poster paper for the seamless backdrop. Might give it a try. I want something bigger as well, can't really fit anything relatively big in my box.
