NEW THIS WEEK – MONDAY 19 OCTOBER 2009
Hello to you all and welcome once again to Miliblog. This week we’ve started an exciting new section which I think will be very useful especially to model makers. Over the years I have accumulated many different photos and in different forms, whether it be digital, slides or even the glossy photos that came in a packet from the photo shop after developing. But part of the collection that is really interesting are the digital e-photos that were available on cd’s or donated from fellow enthusiasts. Some have a copyright attached to them and these we won’t be adding to Miliblog. The others that have no copyright or are so old that under International law the copyright has expired, we shall be adding to Miliblog for your enjoyment.
This week we’ve added nearly 130 photos and have set up this new section called ‘The Tank Collection’. Ok some of the photos are a little grainy and we can’t get them to explode to a full screen, but I think they are really good and provide more detail and close ups of the tanks. So far we have 3 sections, WW2 British, WW2 German and WW2 American, each with many exciting photos to view. I’ve shown some sample below. Who can’t resist looking at them and remember that early Tamiya or Esci model that many of us made back in the 1980′s !!! Have a look at the Panzer 35t or the Sherman Rocket launcher which were both early Esci models in 1/72 scale. There’s nothing like a bit of nostalgia, but as someone recently said ‘Nostalgia isn’t what it used to be !!!’
Don’t forget, we have the search tab at the top if there’s a particular vehicle or registration number of an old vehicle you once owned or you’re interested in. Just pop the details into the box and search.
So back to the scanner and find some more stuff for next week !
Cheerio !
