Description
Spring 2021, Sideshow Cyclops figure, special/limited/whatever edition, which included the jacket and an additional optic lens, IIRC.

I really wanted to get a different perspective on this one, to showcase Cyclop's power. The challenge and learning curve was lighting it as his optic blast was the main light source. I think I used a single lume cube with a red gel. I always feel like I have to "fill" the background with a scene, or setting, or just something behind, and quite often I'm most pleased when I stay with simple, solid backgrounds. In this case, I wanted the solid black void with only my subject illuminated. I was very happy with the results, at some point I'll show some pre production/behind the scenes snaps.

Shot on my DSLR, Canon Rebel XS, 18-55mm lens.
