I surprised Frank didn't choose this as one of the top 2 FL AFVs when he was asked a few weeks ago. Its very photogenic.

Thanks guys. I'm glad you like them.
Whenever I create a scene I usually take a bunch of pictures (i.e. 10-20) from various angles, with figures, without, with pieces moved around, sometimes different lighting (depending on background) etc.. Next I'll select 2 or 3 to roughly sketch out the final scene including digital backgrounds, effects etc. From these I generally select 1 picture to finish properly with all detailing. When I finish one of these I generally go back to the sketches to ensure I have captured the scene the way I wanted. Every so often during this step I realize I like one of the other sketches better than my finished picture. This will lead me to finish another picture from the set. This was the case with this Sd.Kfz.232 scene. Basically the only difference is the vehicle is going the other direction and the dust becomes more of a foreground element.
It was actually pretty hard to choose a top 2 because I like all of them a lot.

I think Frank is playing with us on the last one. That has to be a real Panzer moving down a rural road. It can't be a model shoot.:wink2:
