10 August 2009 : Today I proudly present Model Maniac Page 49 - Part C. In this Part "Art Instructor" presents 6 new armors and a new diorama.
Starting from M1036 HMMV w/ TOW Launcher from Italeri and Ural 4320 from Revell, followed by M3 75mm Gun Motor Carriage from Dragon, Dingo MkIb British Scout Car from Mini Art, Panzer Kampfwagen II French Campaign from Alanger and Sd.Kfz.251/10 w/ 3.7cm Gun from Zvezda, then topping it off with Diorama "Bloody Atoll" using Master Box's Bloody Atoll figure set.
And same as the last 3-4 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 49 - 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
