New to model tanks and this site. say hello

Post by soulfly71 »

Hello people, :D newbie here but i can tell you i have a long standing affair with ww2 and everything that encompasses Military forces, ive got two models, the Heng Long Snow Leopard and the Tiger MK1.
Ive done some detailing of a fashion but as im new to it the results are a bit mixed, ive not went with any pre-determined paint jobs as my imagination takes over and this is the result, but then, isnt it the differences in the way we view other peoples art that draws people together :wtf: . Dare to be different, thats my motto. il try to put up some more pics with detail asap. Are there any clubs kickin around in Scotland???

Hello Steve,I am happy to help with this.Pictures being posted have been a experience here as several different processes have been tried.Yes you must re-size to600x600 max or Upload threw a site like photo bucket.I've tried both and like the direct method.if it's to big a picture it will flag that it is,just re-size.Do try to post a larger picture of your tank as I would like to see your details,and it looks mid-late production from what I can see.

Steve I forgot to tell you,you cannot load pictures using the quick reply option.And if uploading several pictures you have to upload,add the file then upload again,repeat.Once you have you photos in line(they will be listed one on top of the other)click place in line on each photo and your good to go.This is how I do it,also if you decide while using the quick reply you want to add attachments just click full editor and the upload attachment and option bar will appear.When your ready with some more pictures of your Tiger post in the Show Off section,look forward to seeing your pics. Cheers Blake
