hey Chris,outstanding job ,on your WWI British "Male" tank,I just acquired the Emhar "female" ,and will be a little while before I start on it.

He's got them on KitMaker,so click on the photo tab under his name.

Joe

Here you go




I like it Chris,
You've done a splendid job on the paint and your patina on the tracks and the copper thing look great. I might suggest a little more dirt on the tracks, considering the setting. The ground work really brings this beast to life. Any thought about a figure or two?

Great job! There aren't nearly enough WWI builds around. Although I should talk, with three Emhar kits and an armoured car in my stash yet to be built.

bruce, your right about the tracks. I have never been good at mud. I'm actually going to try to dirty up a Renault FT 17 next. As far as figures go, I have another one I need to post of a Whippet with two figures that came out really good.

Chris

how did you get this pic here? I tried for an hour and could not figure it out. I'm good with models and paint. not computers. LOL

Here's what your link syntax should look like
img]http://gallery.kitmaker.net/data/500/DSC001342.JPG[/img
[ with a square bracket on each end ]

hit the image button "(img)" in your thread and then fill in between , as above. Usually coping the pic "location" (right clicking the pic and click on properties) and paste it , works.
Ctrl+C = copy Ctrl+V = paste
I seem to have mixed success and usually I have to go back a tweak the syntax, using the edit feature.
It seemed to be easier to post a pic before.....hmmm. maybe just me.

I don't think you necessarily need mud maybe a little "dusting" with pastels or chalk would do it

You have to replace http://put.url.here/image.file with the address of the full size image, found most easily by right clicking the full size image and choosing "properties" then copying the url address which so it looks like this
[ i m g ]h t tp /gallery.kitmaker.net/data/500/DSC001342.JPG[ / i m g ] without spaces.

You have one http:// too many at the beginning of the address.

Al. thanks. I got it now.

to all: look for an E100 krokodil tonight

Glad I could help. Nice Tadpole, by the way.

I like this shot particularly. very nice work.

LOL , well done Chris. when you learn the hard way you never forget

I have to agree with Pat, this is a great shot( don't know why i missed it before ). I love the way you've done your wood support wall, COOL. That looks quite realistic, Good job Chris.

-Bruce

Ahhhh!!! Lovely work on a much ignored subject.

Absolutely superb!!!!

Gotta agree with Pat and Bruce....the photo in Pat's post is outstanding and really shows off the diorama. Great job ...both on the dio and getting the hang of picture posting you can post all the pix in the same posting also...no need to open a new 'reply' for each one.

Check out Andrea's WW1 British soldier...he'd go great in this dio

Outstanding job on the Mark IV. I have a question about the Whippet though. Are the two British infantrymen beside it retreating or advancing? If they're advancing the Whippet is heading in the wrong direction. The section with the machine guns is the back of the tank -- not the front. The long section, which houses the engine, is the front.
