Hello all,
http://gallery.leica-users.org/New-Old-Pictures/Ardennes00004_RT8 and 
the next 9 shots.
One of my other hobbies is military history, here a few images of US 
armour in the Ardennes campaign, Willy's Jeeps, M3 Halftracks
a couple of GMCs and an M30 cargo carrier. Probably not to everyones 
taste - this was only an attempt to find the right parameters
for realistic "Vintaged" prints in colour and BW.
Comments in this vein would be gratefully received.
Douglas

BTW the Jeeps are approximately  1.5 inches long, the Halftrack 3.5 
inches and the GMCs just under 4 inches. all at 1/76 or 1/72 scale
