My only criticism is that almost every shot is a 3/4 view!! How about some straight on shots to the sides back and front!! I like the low shots though. Nice paintwork. Maybe it is crying out for a bit of slushy groundwork or some troops on top. 1/48 Soviet tank riders - there are some about somewhere I am sure.

Totally agree outdoors is the place to take the best photos!

Snot? You put snot on your models? Ewww, gross!

I am assuming you meant snow, of course.

Looks good, James. One of these days maybe I'll finish my HB T34/85.

What did you use for your mud concoction? I am looking for methods to dirty up my T-35, and your looks quite realistic.

I'm curious about the mud as well. I saw this technique done elsewhere, but I don't recall how it was done.
