9 April 2009 : Today I proudly present Model Maniac Page 46 - Part D. In this Part, "Art Instructor" presents 4 new armors a new figure and a new diorama. Starting from the Unimog 4x4 truck from Revell and BA-3 from Zvezda, followed by T-34/85 w/ Bedspring Armor and M4 81mm Rocket Launcher from Dragon and German SS Grenadier 120mm from VP, then topped it off with Diorama "German Anti Aircraft" using Revell's SWS Flak43 + Tamiya's 20mm Flak38 + Dragon's Achtung Jabo + 2 Tamiya's German Tank Crew.

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!
