A Smythemeister M3 Half Track

[The Smythe Meister]

Well,who`d of thunk it eh?!!..... I`ve actually FINISHED a GB entry WITHIN TIME :astonished:!!
.... Mainly due to it being such an enjoyable build:nerd:,anyway,i`m not great with pics,which is a shame,as it actually looks SO MUCH BETTER than in these images:sad-face:.....
Nevermind,here`s some of the interior type stuff......



and just a couple of side shots........




A shame i can`t get better pics up,i`m trying to find a good camera to take proper pics with,but my questions keep falling on deaf ears!!
Anyway,this has been a very enjoyable build,and is destined for a small Dio in the near future:thumb2: ,
Thanks for looking in,
Andy

Great build Smiffy! Looks like you had a lot of fun weathering this bad boy. Great to see my friend.

[Jim R]

That's very nicely done Andy. All the added details really lift the build.

Very nice Andy, she looks great

I struggle to get decent pictures and found having a piece of grey/black card to use as a background can make them look better

[Valeron]

That is very good. A fully loaded vehicle and weathering I can only dream of doing.

Well done. Superb modelling.

[JR]

Well done Andy on both counts !
The Committee have great pleasure in awarding you

Congratulations mate .

[Gern]

Beautiful.

Looks fantastic andy , love the loaded look . Taking pics is a bit of a pain sometimes unless youve got all the lights and stuff and know what your doing ( I dont ) . As Si says though , a plain background like a piece of coloured card ,light grey, black or white , about A2 size can make a big difference. Not only does it focus the viewers attention on the model , it helps with the auto settings on the phone or camera ( again something I know bugger all about !) . All I know is that a different colour background can make the models colours look different so I just take a few pics with different ones and use which looks best . As for a camera , ive only been using the iphone recently , find it less hassle than getting the laptop out , firing it up and loading the pics onto it. With the phone its all in one .

Very well done Mr Smiff that is a cracking result mate, you should be well happy with that.

[Ian M]

That came out very nice indeed.
And well done on finishing befor time! :smiling5:
With regards to the camera. Pretty much any newer mobile phone/Smartphone thing has a good camera in. Better or as good as most dedicated cameras!
I take all mine with my mobile's camera.
Also the back ground helps a lot. A few bits of card to bounce light off will bring a bit of control over the shadows and highlights.
But to be honest your photos are not that bad Andy a little bit to much light maybe. but otherwise OK.
