I took this with a new vintage lens I picked up with a crazy shallow depth of field.

This mini is standing on a small box on my desk a few inches in front of my keyboard and the only thing that discernible from the keyboard is some of the glow from the keys.

Edit: The mini is primed and dry brushed, I don't think I'll paint this guy further so I'll have to print another one for actually painting further than this.

With the price of energy just now, I'd be glad for a lump of coal for Christmas

What kinda lens is that papi?

A Linos 50mm TV - Heligon lens. The math checks out to it having an aperture of roughly f/0.9. Unfortunately I had to just check with math as the lens doesn't mention anywhere on it what the aperture actually is.

I used my Lumix G9 to take the picture.

The color fringing on parts of the mini are from the chromatic aberration from the lens.

Thank you, it's definitely been fun to faff about with that's for sure

I'm currently working on trying to adapt it a bit better to my camera so I can focus a bit further out but right now it's just a banger of a macro lens
