Smoke

One question - you used an Aber set - which parts are you using, the Dragon initial kit comes with quite a bit of PE. Did you intend to convert to an early or Tunisian Tiger? That is what I did with mine, before Dragon came out with the DAK Tiger themselves.

Thanks for the kind words. From the Aber set I used everything for the turret and hull with the exception of the hatch interiors. I didn't want to tackle too much on my re-initiation to modelling. I will try to provide some closer shots soon. I am still fiddling with my camera. I want to be able to highlight the detail and texture, but the shots look too washed out.

Eric, the turret looks good, from the little we can see. I too would like to see some 'closer' shots. I'm also very intrested in exactly what you replaced with Aber PE? The smoke grenade launchers in the original kit are already PE, and are superb, even the wiring is provided.
Use the macro mode on your camera, and if the shot looks too washed out then use a lighter background. Try putting the grey turret on a light green, blue, or pink paper for less contrast. You could also try backing up a bit then zooming in if your camera will do this. Hope this helps.
