Good 'Ol black and white

[jdcar32]

Bored so I experimented with photos of some builds that lend themselves to a vintage vibe in black and white.

[Mittagskind]

Yeah, black and white is still something especially. I like you pics, Jon.

Definitely gives that '50s magazine look! Super cool!

[H.A.K]

Those look great like that.

Cool photos.

I learned photography on black and white film many years ago. Remember film? Kodak Tri-X Pan?  ? Great subject choice, your lighting looks excellent, very nice photos.

Very nice subjects & photography.

Man, some of these pictures look like real cars! Great models and photography.

Super cool! Next up; harsh shadows, sepia tone, and vignetting. Great experimentation and great fun!

Great photos. Black and white fits so well cars from that time. We saw so much of these in old black and white movies and series.

The black and white photos look good for those. Has a nice magazine look to it.

[Perspect Scale Modelworks]

Really cool!

[Slotto]

I like it. Great idea. B&W makes your builds look more real.

Tri-X was good, but for ultra fine grain, you needed Pan-X - had an ASA somewhere near 25, depending upon which version you used. I'm pretty sure I used D-76 to develop it and even with a simple, basic Durst enlarger, it made outstanding prints.
