Thanks Jack, I ground out a little from inside the top of the hard top so the door sat nice and flush and then it was just a case of drilling it top and bottom and hinging it with a couple of small pins👍 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Justin, with a bit of work they don’t turn out a bad little model to be fair, hopefully they’re better than the woeful weathering that Britains did on them😂 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EasyEd Posted April 27, 2023 Share Posted April 27, 2023 Hey All, I took just want to compliment your work on these models. Really great! I was wondering though if you would be willing to comment on your photo techniques. You know gear lenses posing the models lighting etc. I remember a guy on flickr who did similar with small scale cars and in different kinds of light using bounce light umbrellas direct lighting and such his photos were so beautiful and real looking. I do some photography with Fuji gear and would like to try this. TIA! -Ed- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
