No probs.. appreciated you took the effort to upload your pics.
Oh... and I've uploaded some pictures of my kits that i've completed.. Have a look.. Comments appreciated. They don't look clear enough. Losuy camera.. Sorry... I'll try to retake them soon.
What i'm working on now is the Academy M113A1 APC. Hope to complete it soon as i've got myself 2 more new kits, Tamiya's M1A2 Abrams (OIF) & Leopard 2 A6 main battle tank.
Cheers.

Thanks guys.. I'll fix some lights to make it look brighter before taking the photos.
Oh.. BTW, the barb wire for the 1/16, i made myself.. all thanks to a feature by Marty on how to make barb wires. Check out the article at the Features column.
Hmm... the rank change is just the number of posts you posted in Big A. That's all.

Looking good there Ike,
As for lighting, i make use of the sun.
Place the model below the window and if u have a transparent curtain , close it. If you are using vines, then adjust it so that minimal light can get through.
Too much sunlight is not good too, experiment!

Just to keep this thread 'alive'. Also at the same time 'kaypoh' what you guys have been doing.
I'm finishing up on my 1/72 Revell Challenger 1.
Primed my Academy Hellcat, painted the base coat of the interior on the DML Ausf D halftrack and trying hard to work on 1/72 DML StuG IV.

I don't tink so Ike..The Stug, I believe is not even classified as a true tank, it's actually an assault gun to assist the infantry..The krauts resorted to building them as tanks with movable turrets are diffcult to build and expensive. Assault guns are cheaper as they do not have a movable turret, but they are able to traverse their main gun but only limited...But The Jagdpanther and Hetzer are tank destroyers but I tink they are classified as tanks...
