[OC] I started photographing (with phone) my old action figures with household objects during lockdown. Theme: Time portal. I used bed sheets with flour on it to show a deserted ancient landscape, home decor, my ring lights etc as props.

Behind the scene and more such images from the series: My instagram

Theme:

The image is shot completely with household objects and scale model action figures. Shot with the samsung Note20ultra phone.

The theme for this image was time travel, I wanted to show an ancient abandoned landscape, imagine Mad-max with an Indian twist. We see Batman, looking at himself in the past, entering the time portal. I have always been fascinated by time travel, this scene was inspired by the OG "Back to the Future" scene where Morty sees himself using the DeLorean as a time machine and disappearing.

BTS (video coming up on my instagram) The whole idea came about when I realised my photography ring lights could actually pull of looking like a time portal. I used a mist spray for the smoke and a bunch of other props. Used bedsheets with flour on it to recreate a desert look. Used a lot of decorative props at home to give a ancient abandoned civilization look. Had to rack focus from 3 exposures to make one final image :)

Hope you like it, thanks for your time :)

This is seriously good. I like how you created a sense of narrative progressing from the foreground to the background. Batman visiting the Trojan War is an evocative idea.
