Okay, this was pretty cool! Like, really cool!

First, how did they capture the missile in flight? Is it suspended on something? Or did they actually fire the missile while snapping photos, trying to capture the missile in mid-air?

Love the low angles! Gives a feeling like one is really there!

Just like Other Dave, who actually is really there! The "photo bomb" pic is great because it makes it appear that Other Dave is actually Action Man sized. Or that Action Man is actually full-scale human size.

I noticed that you used your "Ivan" figure... to represent Ivan!

This was great! You should see about getting another figure custom flocked to look more like Other Dave!

Ivan and I wanted to show the missile flying towards the target and we were thinking of suspending it from a string, but there was a strong breeze. I noticed there was a clump of grass near the robot and placed the missile on the grass and it miraculously looked just right - pure luck.

It’s a full size picture of me in the background, using perspective to equate the sizes. Ivan and I have done a number of these but Alex NEVER SHOWS THEM. This time i threatened him that they’d be no more pictures unless that were published lol!

BTW he’s refused to publish any more “way to die” pictures. We were enjoying doing those, but alas!

The "Ways to Die" posts were both entertaining and popular!

Clever solution for the rocket firing scene! It looks good!

I'd like to see more of the "in-scale" pics featuring both figures and humans.
