Macro Extension Tube

Camera nerding time! So recently I've been annoyed by how my photos turn out blurry because of low lighting. I ended up buying some photography lighting to produce better photos in a well lit environment in my poorly lit room).


I even made a light box set up.

However, when I try to take pictures of my figures, they end up blurry at a close distance because I don't have macro lens. Macro lens are too expensive for me for a hobby, so I ended researching about macro lens on youtube and found out about extension tube! I ordered one off amazon and got to play with it tonight. Long lens (80-300mm) work much better with it than my 20mm XD


You can use one or both.

Bounty Hunter Yoko Littner PVC


I preordered this figure back in April I think @-@;; Finally received it at last!! I'm not a huge nerd on pvc, so all I can say is that the paint looks really well done, and the flow of the figure is just gorgeous!!! I wasn't interested in buying other Yoko figures because she always looked too young/plump/cute/rounded....but when I saw this one, she looked more badass with the rifle over her shoulder and that awesome coat flowing behind her. Plus, I like TJ!Yoko/Pre-starboobs suit. There's a lot of detail on the fabrics folds/creases. Her face is not too round. So she looks a bit older.

My only complaint is her boobs hahaa... They're like too round? Almost like she added two waterballoon under her bikini top. Ugly shadows form around them haha....
