Hey Guys,

For some fun, here's a few shots of the Sidewalk Cafe capturing the editing process:

As displayed on coffee table

Adding a yellow poster board for "green screen effect"

Applying new background

Altering image with multiple artistic effects to create paint-like look

and a few unedited "close-up" shots:

Is that the USS Enterprise in the background?

Love the bright vivid colors of these figures.

Hi Rob,
Greetings from Brisbane Australia! I really like this little French village ‘Liberation’ setup with some additional architectural features…very, very creative and illustrates what can be achieved with just a few figures, a great tank and a building or twoI
Congrats,
Andy.

Great example on what a difference a scene takes on once only the necessary aspects are included, such as terrain and backdrop. Robin.

Hey Rob, looks great, is that set-up on the floor or a big table?

 

[WesternOutlaw]

Excellent Rob !

Thanks Steve.

Nice. I like the old Oddball Sherman. I never got it but wish I had.

Completely understand, Duke. There's a number of K&C pieces that I wished I purchased. Thanks though, appreciate it.

What kind of software do you use?

A very old version of Photoshop with many years of practice.

Hi Andy, thanks buddy. Your comments mean a lot. Thanks for the many years of wonderful pieces that I am very proud to own. Enjoy your trip "Down Under" and safe travels.

Thanks Robin, not a whole lot of work (aside from the photo editing), but I really enjoy "fiddling" in setting up the scene. The Normandy Village pieces are most enjoyable.

Hey Rob, looks great, is that set-up on the floor or a big table?

Hey there and thanks. We have a small glass coffee table (square) in our family room that I use from time-to-time to set up scenes and take photos. Right now we have a few LEGO sets on it but may be removing when the "Cattle Call" comes driving through.

Thanks all, really appreciate the nice comments. Stay cool!

I enjoy the “final product” but there is something about the progression that really captures what this hobby is all about.

Nice. I like the old Oddball Sherman. I never got it but wish I had.

I would suggest Andy to reissue the Oddball Tank, it should be a must have for all, like me, that wish to get one...

 

[Mike97]

Great work Rob, love the process you show.

Regards the oddball tank, yep, this hobby is full of ‘coulda, woulda, shoulda’ misses on items-lol

Thanks, it is fun to see the steps.

I have mixed views on any re-release.

Great work Rob, love the process you show.

Thanks Mike.

This made me smile !
Thank you.

Probably the best of compliments. If a picture or a scene can create mood, esp. with a smile, it did pretty good. Thanks so much!

Thats awesome. The backdrop is cool, looks like a painting

Appreciate it Jason, a painting in a painting.
