1 September 2008 : Today I proudly present Model Maniac Page 43 - Part C. In this Part, "Art Instructor" presents 5 new armors and a new diorama. Starting from M151 A2 from Tamiya and T-55 AD-1 from UM, followed by MAZ-537G with Semitrailer from Trumpeter, BT-2 from TOM and Sd.Kfz.250/9 from Tamiya, then topping it off with diorama "The Longest Day" using Italeri's M4A1 and Master Box's D-Day, June 1944.
And same as the last three 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 43 - 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
