I think the lighting is actually easier with smaller figures. Using small subjects allows the use of smaller lights in less space. Of course, tiny adjustments in the lighting can make a big difference in the effect, but it's easy to keep shifting the lights around and snapping lots of eksposures. For this particular shot, I used a single desk lamp as a light and... no joke... a piece of aluminum foil from a slice of pizza I brought home the other night as a reflector. Over-eksposing the highlights is an issue with which I still struggle. There's a bit of that in this photo, unfortunately.

I should start keeping a list of my Doll A Day photo subjects, because I honestly do not know how many Pinky figures I have. I should also try to research and compile a complete Pinky list, to see how close I am to having all of them. There were quite a number of color variations on some releases, and a lot of special collaboration releases, so I know I am nowhere near having all of them. But with prices having become more reasonable on the secondary market, this might be the time to consider pursuing a "complete" collection.
They're not dolls, they're action figures!
