Hello,

I'm a newbie here. I've started making models about a few months ago and made already 3 models. I prefer armory and vehicles of the WWII-period (Allied and Axis)

I'm always curious in what others think about my work. So, I put some pictures of my models at de following link:
My Model Pics

So, check it out and tell me what you think and, if necessary, give me some tips to improve my work

Thanks already,

For a new modeler your stuff looks great, a few ideas you could add a little black around the ehaust pipes of both tanks and a little on the muzzle break of your King Tiger, helps give it that used look, nice weathering, even if you don't they look great can't wait to see more. Welcome to Armorama.

Welcome to the Big "A"!! Nice work.

here ya go...

welcome to Armorama!

you made 3 models and they look great!!! i wish my first 3 models look that good!

Thats some great work there, can't wait to see some more. Welcome to the big A.

Welcome to the big"A" hope you enjoy it,Iike your work its very good , only thing I could see that I would change is to dirty up the decals a little the vehicles are nicely weathered but the insignias look brand new a little pastel rubbed over them should tone it down a bit, once again welcome.

Thnx for posting your pix. If I can make two comments:

1) I agree about adding some soot around the Tiger II's exhaust. It was pretty dirty back there. However, there's a debate about how sooty modern (20th century) gun barrels were. Personally, I never blacken my gun barrels. Some would argue differently. Take your pick.

2) cross decal on your Mobelwagen. To avoid the silvering, try to apply some glosscoat to the area where decals will be placed. Then use Microsol, a decal setting solution available at hobbyshops. Then use dullcoat over everything. Many AFV modellers use dry transfers too. No silvering with those.

I especially like the Willys and the Mobelwagen. Great work for a beginner. I think you'll find the tips and tricks given in the first few posts will go a long ways.

Welcome aboard. Glad to have you on board & nice work too.
