Well here it is, my first armor MOM entry. It is painted in humbrol enamels and detailed with citadel acrylics. This is also the first kit that I tried postshading on. It's lightly dusted with pastels, most of which got ate up by the matt varnish
Cheers

Very good!
I have question for you. How have you made the photos? They look really good. I see you have a white background, what have you used for this. And what camera?
Thanks!!

Firstly thank you all for nice comments, I'm really glad that you like my work.
@ Richard:
It builds up very nicely IMHO. Hull goes together ok, if you manage to do it properly it shouldn't require much putty, if any at all. There is some lenght issue with driveshaft, its a little too long, I didn't bother with that, just forced it in place Unfortunatelly the only equipment that goes to the inside is the rest of the cannon, MG and radiator. It would be nice to get some reference and to scratch an interior to open up some hatches, should be verey easy to do when you got some plans
@ Jurjen:
White background is just white paper of heavier grade.
Photos were shot in natural light with Canon EOS350D with 18-55 kit lens (drool for some decent macro lens and good indoor lighting). I shot them in RAW format and the adjusted a bit in the computer.
Cheers
Pedro

You did really good job Grzegorz and postshading looks very nice. there is only one thing - don't you think that crosses are to white? maybe it's just matter of camera settings or so.

Thanks for your comment Marcin!
I don't think they're to white, in fact I painted and filtered them with a citadel bleached bone mixed with white to give the scale effect
Cheers
Pedro
EDIT: just deleted my most recent reply because i misanderstood Marcin's comment at first, I'm sorry

So it must be settings.
This is Italeri's kit, right? The one without resin parts?
