Thanks bit of an annoying one for me, love the colours and the whole feel but just slightly oof and that gets me.

Good set Bryn. I really like the first and last; both very eye-catching.

You and me both. I made a completely new design yesterday. Only desk tests so far.

Going to try make this.... Seems to me made out of some metal rods wrapped in softbox material (assuming 2 layers).

Last I recall he was using two layers, I think it was tracing paper, but that might not have been his latest setup. That looks like loose threads on the corner of the frame, which does suggest fabric of some sort rather than paper. I'll be interested to hear how you get on with that design. I tried it, using some Neewer diffuser fabric. I didn't get on with it, but it's difficult to argue with the image quality Thomas gets, so it obviously works.
