I just thought I'd post a link to my set of close-up pictures on Flickr:

Not all are of military subjects, but, somewhat bizarrely to my mind, the shot of the Jagdpanther has more views (currently 38) than any of my pictures. Some of the other vehicles, by contrast, have had no views at all.

I'd be interested to see whether anyone can determine the origin and scale of the models.

just thought I'd make the link hot for ya...

My close-up gallery

Thanks for the assistance, Delbert. I see there have been a few views.

In case anyone's interested, the AFV's are 1/144 scale prepainted models. The Hanomag is by Trumpeter, the Elefant and Jagdpanther by Dragon. The ruined building in the background is from a Thunderbirds pod vehicle candy toy, which is to about the same scale.

I took the photos with a manual focus film camera (Nikon FM2) using a reversing ring or extension tubes in natural light. The groundwork is mostly scattered dried tea leaves (green, because that what I drink, and because they look better).

Nice clear photos....

Thanks Johnny. I'm planning to take some more shortly. However, these, like the ones already posted, will, I am embarrassed to say, be of prepainted figures, as none of my own modelling projects are fit to show to anyone...
