Another day with no broadband connection! Curse you BT Broadband! 

I've been trying to use my time productively though and have done some work on a new model as well as creating some animations of existing models. The animations are all stop motion. Basically, I stick the model down to a backing sheet so that it doesn't move, mount the camera on a tripod then take eight pictures, moving the handle round 45 degrees between frames. 

I drop the pictures into photoshop and animate them using these handy instructions 🙂

The internet is back on so after posting this I'm going to do some work on the www.flying-pig.co.uk website. What did we do before the internet!? I've been disconnected all day and now I have so many things I need to look up!
