From track up your modeling skills is impressive. Weathering is good but it looks a little too clean with no battle scars.

And give your model some respect - get a base and some figurines for the full diorama look!

BTW, very very nice..............did you use airbrush?

For photo 3, are you trying to show the rust or the name?

Wow, fantastic work on the tank. I'd never be able to do that. /sad

I've posted some comments on delubyo's thread, which is similar in content as yours. Some comments apply whilst others don't. If there's any other qns feel free to ask. Maybe you can share your experience with photographing your model with him, especially lighting and composition.

Wow! Thanks for the input. Especially on point 2 to bounce the light to fill the shadow.
