FOUND PRINTS

Going through the boxes of crap in my attic, I have stumbled upon a large valise with photos in it. Fortunately some long-lost photos of earlier diorama work are in there. As I discover more, I'll be sure to post them right here..

This one I'll call "Middle East Meetup"

The Germans enlisted many locals and had them wear the uniform of the Afrika Korps. Here 2 locals share a couple minutes and a drink catching up on more domestic issues.


These 2 were depicting a gear-laden staff car in the Middle East.


This is only a fraction of an entire mini airiels complete with crew and plane. Not many photos exist sadly because at the time, I was most proud of this particular piece.

"Wary Pilots"
I used a bit of photoshop for the ackground. I captured some great foreground detail, but neglected to frame the overall shot. (something I learned once I went digital)


This is an overhead view of the previously mentioned scene as well as a very early attempt at photographing the work. It at least gives you an overall sense of how much is in the scene with the Stuka, as well as a sense of the early thawing spring on an airfield in France in 1943. This, along with the other found prints were shot on my roof deck on 61 Lexington Ave in New York city circe 1999/2000.
