Tamiya 1/48 PanzerKampfwagen II

[FooFighter]

Not really RC related so it's posted here. I have been on a "airplane-binge" for the past 2 years; all my recent builds are aircrafts so this is my first completed tank for that long...

I took time off from my Mi-24 Hind, EA-6B Prowler (and now RAF Mustang III) projects to do this. I call this my "caviar" project because there will be no fit issues to worry about.

Enough talk, pictures are below :P







It's been fun doing this.. thanks for looking

Thats really NICE !

Is that the Alan's kit ? ...I was working on the Ausf D version (which seems to be taking me forever )

Thanks for sharing

Alamak Ghostfit this is Tamiya kit sir not Alan and its 1/48 and not 1/35

Nixaad, I basically used cardboard paper stick it against the wall and then put the model on a chair. It's quite easy, will share the studio setup when I get back.

Cheers

Hi Nixaad, this is how I set up my models when I want to take some nice photos of them.



Easy right?

Oh.. u didn't use any flashes or lights? just natural sunlight? and a tripod.

Dude.. your weathering is SUPERB!!!! nice bro. I've seen your flicker album.. geeeezz!! ENVY! but in all honesty, I don't have what it takes to do all that.

[FooFighter]

Thank you sir. I just on all the lights in my room and shine my desktop light on it. It's quite simple.

I just got into this hobby 4 years ago and am still learning and practicing. Its just a hobby for me

Everyone can pick it up

LOL ! ..you've certainly fooled me ! testimony of your Plasmo prowess ! that you could fool this old veteran into believing your 1/48 is really 1/35 !

...or maybe my eyes ain't what they used to be !

The Tamiya 1/48 scale vehicles are really nice.. not "over-engineered" like some other brands.

Show the guys here some of your works leh :P

Looks like an Oly Pen but I can't figure out which model ?

[FooFighter]

This is not an Olympus pen but a Zx-1.

Thanks everyone for your comments, I am still working to improve myself one kit at a time.

Just came back from hk on a work trip and tomorrow gotta work!
