Love the colours on the wildlife, and love the tank vignette - good match-up!

What scale is that tankcrew?

Post by: abu iskander on March 18, 2012, 07:30:08 PM

Raz, they are CP Models 20mm. They fit well with the AB and Elheim lines, so basically 1/72 - 1/76 size stuff.

I`ll promise to post better pictures of those beasties specially for you `Number One Fan` on my blog after the round is over  :D ;)

Aka, those that I should have compiled them with, but I`m learning on that part.

Lesson 1: screw photoshop for the job, Windows Paint rules all  lol

Both entries are very nice!  Love those twilight beasties: great job Tomsche.  I'm hoping to get to some Twilight in future rounds too, they're just such fun minis.

I really liked your entry, Tomsche.  Especially the "ostrich" animal. Very cool paint job!

Perhaps, the slot showing hurt a tad, though.

Every year I promise myself to upgrade the camera, get a lightbox and read the Photoshop manual...

... at least someone is bringing a lightbox along for me next friday at TSA  lol

If you get a good camera, it usually comes with some very nice software. You won't need photoshop.

Mind you, there are those of us who have nice cameras and have no idea how to use them...  :D

I still have the first generation Lumix, it`s still a very good camera (it took all the pcitures of my ACW report for example this weekend) BUT it can`t get closer then about 30cms of a model before blurring all up as it is only at 5 megapixels, which is to far off to get decent closeups

I got Photoshop CS3, and a manual for dummies, and still don`t understand a word of how it is supposed to work with layers and everything though, so that`s the plan to learn it by LPL edition 27 or so  lol
