      Bit the bullet and bought a (relatively) cheap light box. When taking photos of models up to now, I've just been using bland backgrounds, eg: cardboard, white paper, etc, but not really happy with them, so a light box could be a nice upgrade, we'll see.
      Got it off Amazon, Its a fold up one, bit like one of those festival tents that curls up into a small circle.
      Its just over 24"x"24" (600+x600+mm) and I think its 24" (600mm) high too.
      Comes with various backgrounds, white, black, blue, green.
      The front and top had openable velcro panels.
      Comes with two LED light strips.

        I used the lights from an old one of these to illuminate my spray booth.
        They do work reasonably well, few pitfalls which i will leave you to discover and overcome
