The Tiger Mk1 - the combination of two hobbies. The original was in colour but has been taken through Alien Skin black and white filter (Kodak TRI-X pushed 2 stops). Please C&C if you will.

This is good Chris.

I like the set-up with paints and dish and how you have positioned all the other hobby tools, the tank climbing over the paints, it all tells a great story.

The reflection of the Tank, how did you do that? was it a mirror?
Also the moody lighting really suits. I notice a really strong narrow bright light souce at the centre near the Id no's which I really like. Can you tell me what it is?

Sorry for all the questions, I've only just discovered Plug-ins for B&W coversions and now I'm like a sponge.  BTW - Thanks for the tip off to Alien Skin, I had seen it discussed before but couldn't remember the name of it.

Thanks for your comments Mark - the light was actually daylight coming through a gap in the curtains. To me it added a sombre mood to the shot

Thanks Chris.
I thought it looked like natural light. I think it sets the mood of the image nicely.

Nice image. I haven't built anything in ages. I like the PPing you've done sets a nice tone.

I think a nice warm sunlit tone would also suit it.

Nice!

Nice image, Chris. Love the treatment and idea.
