30 October 2013 : Just a few days after introducing the previous page, today I proudly present Model Maniac Page 71 - Part C. In this Part "Art Instructor"
presents 6 new armors, mostly modern ones. Starting from Willys Jeep w/ M2 Machine Gun 1:24 from Italeri and D9R Armored Bulldozer from Meng Model,
followed by MK.23 MVTR Cargo Truck and M1078 LMTV (Armor Cab) both from Trumpeter, then topping it off with Russian T-62 Mod 1972 from Trumpeter
and Soviet Heavy Tank Object 279 from Panda. It took me two hours for photography plus 4-5 hours for image processing and web pages editing. A new page
doesn't come easy. 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 71 - 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
