1st try at mini studio
not done much of this, but with the boom in stock photography, I'd thought I'd try it out...

Below is a pic of my general setup in my living room. the cereal box with A4 white paper was my 'studio'

Looks as though you have colour cast from the walls onto your images - hence the warm tones- You should be able to correct that by manually adjusting your WB to compensate 
Shadows are quite strong in #1 - try and light the back of it - to blow out your whites
Good effort overall though
PS just noticed you have legolas' fighting knives - i collect the United Cutlery LOTR swords too
amongst other LOTR stuff!

nice spot!I collect sharp pointy objects
and firearms too.I think most of the problems with these shots was the fact the bulbs are tungsten, so throw a strong orange/yellow cast. I intend to get dayglo bulbs which are a lot whiter, and reshoot.
