TreehuggerA trick with such photos, is to have the camera clip, just a little bit, into the model, only to avoid creating a "space" around the entire model.

Murad ÖZERTreehugger thanks alot, i don't exactly get what you mean. for example NOT keeping the entire model within the frame all the time?

Treehugger@Murad, yes, sort of. It isn't so much of it looking the best or anything, but it would prevent the staleness of regular photos with too much "air" around the model, as if showing an item at a distance. An alternative way of creating a more interesting look, could be as seen in the preview photo for the project here, with a strong vertical element, and the sides are naturally squished, even though the whole model is seen. A similar thing with "intimacy" is used in comics and movies for that matter, deciding to show a subject in full figure, or only show the upper body, the head, or possibly just the eyes. So I would think that clipping gently into the model, is like a way to show detailing, and also remove the spacing around a model, without getting too close.

Murad ÖZERLukasz, Gordon et Stephan much appreciated folks 🙂
@Treehugger: what you described makes perfect sense now, if i could it's how i would go about photography as well since most modelling pubs share that method in their subject display as well and for a good reason. however in my case, my photo setup doesn't allow more than what you see in my pix. hardware is a limiting factor for me. i am using a mirror-less dslr, 1st gen eos m with it's kit lenses. when it comes to scenes like this (i.e. macro) 18-55 lens can only go so upclose, couple that fact with the available lights and the size of the subject i have a problem. i could very well do what you are describing with a 32nd prop for ex, but at this scale and size i don't have any other alternative, believe me i've tried. cropping the pictures are always an alternative of course but it has it's own drawbacks when it comes to showing details ( - sharpness & +dithering) due to lens' and body's capabilities.
as for the light and diffusors, you see i don't have any wip shots simply because i have to prepare for the photo op, there is no fixed place/room for that process and on/off with that can become tedious very quickly. all in all digital photography is all about logistics = money first and foremost, talent later.
