28 October 2008 : Today I proudly present Model Maniac Page 44 - Part C. In this Part, "Art Instructor" presents 5 new armors and a new diorama. Starting from BTR-152D from UM and Chinese CA-30 6x6 truck from Trumpeter, followed by T-26 WZ61 from Mirage, J.Stalin II from Italeri and Flakpanzer I from Dragon, then topping it off with Diorama "Mobelwagen At War" using Tamiya's Mobelwagen and Dragon's Achtung Jabo figure set.
And same as the last three dozen Parts, all pictures in this Part were taken using "time exposure" technique so as to achieve highest depth of field, i.e., using a tripod, setting shutter priority and selecting shutter speed that gives the highest f-stop (f19-f22), and setting self-timer for shutter release. Lighting is natural, pictures were taken outdoor under the shades during daytime. Pictures were scanned directly from film by the photo shop, written on to a CD and resized by me. As always, I hope you'll enjoy viewing!
I'd like to thank for all kind feedbacks, compliments and suggestions that we received concerning Page 44 - Part B. They are very encouraging, and they inspire us to keep on producing quality models & dioramas and showing finest quality pictures. Comments and suggestions are welcome in my
