16 June 2008 : Today I proudly present Model Maniac Page 42 - Part D. In this Part "Art Instructor" presents five new armors and a new diorama. Starting from BTR-70/SPW-70 from Revell and Scout Car Daimler MkII from Tamiya, followed by M-4 High Speed Tractor from Hobby Boss and Sd. Kfz.232 6 RAD from Italeri, and ending with T-80 w/ crew from Mini Art and Diorama "The Long Winter" using Tamiya's Panther Ausf.A and Tri Star's German Panzergrenadiers.
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 42 - 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
