17 December 2010 : Today I proudly present Model Maniac Page 57 - Part D. In this Part "Art Instructor" presents a new truck, a new motorcycle and five new armors. Starting from Medium 3 ton Truck - Coal Engine from Italeri and Zundapp K500 Motorcycle newly-released from Vulcan, followed by five German AAA (Anti-Aircraft Armors) namely
Tamiya's 6x4 Truck Kruppe Protze + Tamiya's 20mm Flak38, Tamiya's Horch 4x4 Type 1A + Italeri's 20mm Flak38, Revell's SWS 3.7cm Flak43, AFV Club's Sd.Kfz.251/21 Ausf.D "Drilling" and Trumpeter's German 2cm Flak38 Auf Selbstfahrlafette (Sd.Kfz.7/1 Late) w/ Sd.Ah.52. For this page I planned to take 70 images or about 10 each, but ended up taking 101 images total. That's the good or bad side of digital photography and virtually unlimited webspace. 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 57 - Part C. They are very encouraging, and they inspire us to keep on producing quality models and dioramas and showing finest quality pictures. Comments and suggestions are welcome in my Model Maniac Forum
