HoolioPaulio Posted May 7, 2020 Share Posted May 7, 2020 I say spray booth, its really just a cardboard box to catch over spray, as I only shoot non-toxic acrylics I don't need fume extraction. And yes I wear a dust mask so I'm not breathing in the paint dust that occasionally wafts out on bigger jobs. Anywho, this was the previous lighting, which was always in my way whether I was painting or not And its been upgraded to LED strip lights around the opening, powered by an old router power supply with a switch on the side for convenience 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alpha Juliet Posted May 7, 2020 Share Posted May 7, 2020 Mine is very similar - the additional lighting makes a real difference. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunderklumpen Posted January 21, 2021 Share Posted January 21, 2021 @HoolioPaulio Nice work! I have a similar setup but with led-strips only from above. I have a lot of issues with shadow and dark spots and I’ve come to the conclusion that I need light from the sides/front. Your solution seems like a good idea. Have you put the strips on some kind of angled piece of wood? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't have enough wood so I use the little bits I had to make 45 degree angle brackets for some thin strips of perspex sheet which the led strips are glued to. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The family moved from house to apartment a few years ago, so most of my tools and "bits and pieces" of wood/plastic/metal never made it here, unfortunately. So now I have to make do with what I have. One idea I'm thinking about is to use a short piece of plastic cable cover, the kind you hide cables in. Those come in angled shapes and are easily available and rather cheap. I'll come back to this topic with a pic when I'm done. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunderklumpen Posted January 22, 2021 Share Posted January 22, 2021 And here we go. Couldn’t find anything with an angle, so instead I connected some more strips to the sides. Works ok but not a hundred percent. Will do for now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
