8 April 2008 : Today I proudly present Model Maniac Page 41 - Part D. In this Part "Art Instructor" presents five new armors and a new diorama. Starting from PT-76 model 1951 from Trumpeter and M923 A1 Big Foot from Italeri, followed by Panther Ausf.D and Bofors 40mm AA Gun from Italeri and Tamiya's Kubelwagen type 82 1:16. Then topping it off with diorama "Last Consultation" using Dragon's Kubelwagen type 82 w/ Crew + Tri Star's Last Consultation.
And same as the last two 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) which is usually around 1/4 - 1/2 second, 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 41 - Part C. They are very encouraging, and they inspire us to keep on producing quality models & dioramas and showing finest quality pictures possible. Comments and suggestions are welcome in my Model Maniac Forum
