RC Modell Me 109

And now for something completely different...

My new little photostudio....

Last week I found a post in my favorite Wargaming Forum about a small photo studio. It looked inetersting and so I purchased one for about 25 €.

It contains a case wich can be transormed to  a cube, 2 Lamps one "tripod" and 4 backgrounds.

Here it is:

I still try to find out how to use it in a proper way:

The pictures are a) too dark or b) too bright.....

To be contiuned...

EDIT: Something went wrong with the size of the pictures. I will try it again, but I can do that only in the evening :-(

Edit²: Fixed...

One week of holiday = 2 kits finished ;-) (Humber & Chaffee) Revell, 1:76

I was at the northern sea last week. One week with the family, nice weather (cold, stormy but sunny - as it has to be :-), nice landscape and a lot of fun. Very relaxing. But in the evenings I got time to build a few kits. I built my last tank over one 1 ago, so I started with two old Matchbox (now Revell) kits I still had in my stock, just to get back into buisness.

Here they are:

I also started a Opel Blitz by Roden and a Mathilda from Esci. But these are still in progress. I will report as soon as possible.

And welcome Shaun, Karitas, Jomps and Daniel Kischko! Nice to have you here!

Rebasing my stuff...

It was long ago since my last post, but I was very busy with other things and I hadn`t the patience to go on with my minis. But today was a fine day. I´m on holiday, the weather was fine and so for the first time this year I could work in my garden. In contiuned rebasing my stuff. Results you finde below!

Late War Germans...

Today I want to show you the last part of my "picture session" 4 weeks ago. The late war germans.

And welcome JFaria and tankmodells.pl! I hope you enjoy the show ;-)

British Forces....

Today some pictures of my british forces. As you can see, the bases of most of the minis aren´t finished yet. I   continued the work in the last days and I hope to finish this until next Sunday. These Soldiers were the first I based a long time ago. I recognized, that "green" is not the best choice to paint the bases, so I started to repaint them. And the rest was rweorked and painted, too. I have to highlight and wash the bases and finally they will get some gras.
The bright sunlight has the effect, that the tanks look like new. But in reality the´re looking a lot more "used".
