Yeah...I do use photobcket...It used to do exactly what you're saying, but the last dozen or so pictures I've posted haven't don it Confused [%-)]  Oh well, I can jsut resize them before hosting to get them normal I think.

My AFV sturmtiger, with Tamiya turned aluminum ammo.

And my Stug III G

I don't have much in the way of German stuff, but that's it so far, until my Hummel gets in (after three weeks from GM)

OK: Here's my Cromwell Models 8.8cm Flak 41 with superdetailed DML SdAnh 202 trailers:

A 1/48 Jagdpanzer L70A (Gasoline conversion with Tamiya Pz IVJ)

 

Finally, here's my DML Flak 36.  It's complete but it's to appear in a magazine so most pics aren't available:

 

 

And I've got a few others ongoing (Marder I, 12.8cm Krupp Pak 44, Stug III G) that fit into this category.

wayne, i like this Anti Tank Gun scene very much... the foliage is good, and the urgency is there. Placement of the AT gun is also nice. I think you went for the tundra look with the moss and fern like trees... it came off pretty well but a light flurry of snow on the surfac of everything wouldn't hurt the scene in my opinion... just to emphasize the tundra

thank you. it's called "A Snake in the Garden", a reference to the initial attacks by XXX corps during Market-Garden. may do a sherman on a small base and put it across the room so the 2 dioramas are linked.

i have a 50mm at gun with german crew in winter garb. will take your advice on the winter scene when i get to building that one.

that would look nice; a soviet tank and german at gun on the eastern front book shelf, a sherman and a panther on the western front book shelf, dora on its own book shelf (or room).

i think it would really work good with a heavy base and 1/72 scale armor and planes. for me i don't have enough book shelf space as is with 80 normal size shelves full.
