  1. Kai I can only imagine the time needed to makes out the triangles but they do look mighty good Keep 'em comin Peter
  2. Gaz Nice work on the front office, looks so good and the fit seems flawless. It is a shame that for what kits cost, so much AM is needed to either correct errors or bring up the level of detail. Even buying Quinta Sets adds a cool $25 to the front office on the average. Keep 'em comin Peter
  3. Rob Absolute;y and incredible finish .. gorgeous work. I suspect you're right concerning the thickness of the decal stripes and in the pics, they look superb as well. Keep 'em comin Peter
  4. Hubert thank you for posting the info. Interesting release for sure. maybe it's the beginning of a new line of kits. Keep 'em comin Peter
  5. Phil Glad to help Keep 'em photogrtaphing Peter
  6. Phil Have no fears - just tell me what settings you were using and we'll correct the exposure problems. If it's low light, we need to increase the ISO and decrease the shutter speed. Are you using a tripod or hand holding - makes a difference. Keep 'em photographing Peter
  7. Ron Terrific work on the plumbing - looking mighty good Keep ‘em coming Peter
  8. Kev Looking mighty good- the Quinta cockpit set is so well worth the cost as the details look awesome. Keep ‘em comin Peter

  11. Carl The good life for sure - enjoy Keep 'em comin Peter
  12. Carl Your build photos are fine and no point changing now. If you ever get the erg to play with the camera and need help, I'm here to help. Keep 'em comin Peter
  13. Hi Carl Just did a little reading up on your Canon and it is a very capable camera. Do you use it to take your build/model photographs? I would give it a try, as it should produce excellent results. I would recommend shooting JPEG files, so you won't have to do any post work. If I can help, let me know even though I'm a Nikon shooter Keep 'em comin Peter
  14. Hi Rob Thank you for filling me in and you are 100% correct. My most reliable camera was the Nikkormat - 100% manual and except for the button battery for the meter, no electronics. My favorite film cameras were a Nikon F4s and a Leica M6 but both were a long time to go. The F4s was a weapon if needed, actually had AF but weighed a ton. The M6 was a perfect camera, expensive and the glass was magnificent but a wee bit expensive. Sure wish I kept the Leica. I use to zone focus with it and it surely was unique in how the film was loaded. I've stayed with Nikon all these years and only have two Nikon F mount lenses left, with all my other lenses now are Nikon S Line mirrorless and I now shoot with a Nikon Z7 - just love it. I completely understand your reasoning for using your cellphone and the images you post, the clarity and crispness are right there. Keep doing what you are doing, the images posted are right up there. BTW, A Contax G System - fantastic equipment and nothing like German optics. Keep 'em comin Peter
  15. Ron Terrific detail work - looking so very good Keep ‘em comin Peter
  16. Rob My money is riding on you - No question, she is going to be a stunner for sure Ke ‘em comin Peter
  17. Nick Thank you for the detailing the chipping process as the weathering effects are spot on. Keep ‘em comin Peter
  18. Hi Wolf It was very sad news when WNW closed it’s door not just for us but all the folks who worked there as well. What doesn’t still add up, is why after all this time is their web site still up and running? Keep ‘em comin Peter
  19. Rob Looking simply spectacular .. flawless to my eye Keep ‘em comin Peter
  20. Hi Rob I’ve been a Nikon shooter since the mid 1960’s and love photography. In the digital age, post work for me is part of the process of creating a fine print (I do all my own printing) and half the enjoyment. I do remember my own home darkroom in the film days and there are times I wish we could go back in time, as I still shoot film from time to time. ’Getting it right’ in camera is easy, as your GH3 is a mirrorless camera and through it’s menu settings you can correct all the colors - no post necessary. Just shoot JEPGs and not RAW Files, as RAW files absolutely need post work. You can do the color correction right in camera: color temperature, sharpness and any other settings you need to in your cameras menu settings. What you see on your LCD screen or in the EVF is the image on the cameras sensor. After you take the image, what you see on the LCD screen is a camera processed JPEG file. What focus stacking does is allow you to infinitely Increase your depth of field razor sharp front to back, which is impossible to do with any camera except the old style view camera with it’s swings and tilts. The smaller apertures will only yield increased depth of field with reasonable sharpness due to diffraction. A cellphone works differently and nothing wrong with using it. With your app, you are still manually manipulating the file. Keep ‘em comin Peter
  21. Kev Nice progress on the Yak and I know exactly how you mean and your tackling the obstacles ever so nicely. Glad you enjoyed the show and that's some haul for sure Keep 'em comin Peter
  22. Wolf Much appreciated and I'm going to finish her no matter what. Keep 'em comin Peter
