Mini softbox mkII

The mkII version of the softbox is made from black thermoplastic sheet which makes it much more durable and slightly more attractive than the mkI cardboard version. It's stuck together using black gaffer tape with the same tracing paper used in the mkI version. This one doesn't have any tin foil lining yet as you can see in the image a lot of the light is soaked up by the black plastic. The lightweight construction of the softbox allows it to be attached to the strobe with velcro.

Thanks to all of you DIY folks especially Nickwheeleroz for his DIY soft box tutorials, they helped my project no end.
