Description
Out in the wasteland you need a reliable vehicle and the "Screaming Hawk" is just the ride for it! Featuring a overcharged engine,dual mounted machine guns,seating for two, turbo injector, and mono AM/FM radio! It Provides decent armor protection from all the nasty critters and wasteland hero's. the Screaming Hawk will suit all your plundering,raiding, and hunting needs! Pillage the wastes in style!"Screaming Hawk" was build with a very old (and missing parts) 1/35 German armored car( sd.kfz 250 ) Built up with extra details form the bits boxes. features two figurines(one custom) and extra stowage/gear. painted in dark tan,rust,euro gray "Model Masters" enamels and weathered in brown acrylics and pastels.
like how this one came out, and really has a max mad/fallout vibe. this project has me thinking about maybe doing a modern tank crazy like this. I haven't really beat up a tank yet and i think in this style it might be pretty sweet.

Brilliant! I love how the simple touch of adding a spiky mohawk to one fellow instantly turns him into a "Mad Max"-style post-apocalyptic road-raider.

Very good! Since I have seen multiple post-apocalyptic vehicles being designed off WW2 vehicles, this is looks very convincing.

How are you taking photos in this quality ? When i try they always come out with either shadow heavy or light heavy .

i am still pretty new at the photography but here is what i do...
i have made a very cheap booth [link] and cheap lamps with some cheap Full Spectrum Light Bulbs. about half way through the build i use my booth to do a test shoot. this lets me find the best angles and see if there will be any color/lighting problems.
depending on how dark/bright what i am shooting ill fine tune my exposure settings.iso is always set to auto and i try to have my camera set up far away from the mini and use my digital zoom to capture the model(makes details crisp)
recently i have started editing my model photos in "PhotoScape"(its free but other programs will work, i.e Photoshop) i use the basic "auto level" "bloom""back light"some times a "Film effect" and a slight vignetting to bring the eye in. depending on if you under/over expose your photo a editing program can up/down the levels to where it should be.
hopefully some of this helps dude!

Many thanks, the problem i had was probably from using only one lamp and wrong choice of background.
Photo editing and zooming should help too. Will keep this in mind when taking photos.
