Looks mighty nice. I like your weathering touch.
To make each build less crappy than the last one. Or, put another way, "Better than the last one, not as good as the next one!"..

Thanks Lyle!
Hmmm......these pics don't show the weathering very well.
It looks a lot dustier than the pics show.

Well, looks good to me, but I only have one eye that works.

Just get some poster cardboard in different colours for doing your pictures. Having pictures taken on your cutting mat not really does this build justice.
Nonetheless an impressive finish! I like the different hues of the camo colour and the dusting. It´s there, but not overdone.

Re: 1/35 Trumpeter M1133 Stryker MEV
hey, tips for a cheap-o photo set up: Large sheets of white paper. One for vertical backdrop, and the other for the base. Make a J shape. Take pics outside on an overcast day. The clouds act as a natural diffuser. Then, all you need to do is sharpen things up with a simple photo editing feature (my computer came with a default program)

Every take-off has a landing...some are just better than others

I´d prefer a light grey paper; reduces too hard shadows. But hey: it´s fun to play around!
