Whoops.. Guess I wasn't too specific.. I meant how did you get the black and white pictures to look that realistic with the grain and it all?

And you should do the same thing with the outdoor photos

I simply took it outside and set the diorama on my picnic table and took the pictures.

I.. LOVE it.. I just.. LOVE it...

And please edit those outdoor pictures to real WWII ones! Big Smile [:D]

May I also ask what you did to edit them that greatly? Like, just not the program or anything, but the actual process? Smile [:)]

Again, love it...!

Fantastic Figs RB!!! You did a great job on the ground work too. Well done! What did you paint your figs with and who made them? Thanks!!!

The infantry figures are Dragon set #6196 German Anti-Tank Team (France 1940).

The two panzeroffiziers standing are from Alpine #35028 Early WW2 Panzer Crew Set.

The PzKpfw.I Ausf.B commander came from the Dragon Early Stug. Crew figures set, the head being replaced by the extra head included in the Alpine set.

I painted everything with these :

.98 cents a 2oz. bottle at your local Wal-mart. You gotta mix your colors yourself but they are cheap. All of the figures and armour were sealed with Testors Dull-Coat.

I finished the Ausf.B Commander figure plus the third and final Genadier today. I hope to finish the last two PanzerOffiziers tomorrow and finalize this build.
