I assume the chassis and other bits are from the Monogram kit, right? I've always liked the Continental coupe's shape- sheesh, I wish AAM was still around doing this kind of stuff!

You really need to figure out how to focus your camera...

True.

The sequence of photos...makes me wonder...photo #1, have a glass of wine, take photo. Photo #2, have a second glass, take photo. Photo #3...on to the third glass, take photo. Photo #4...you get where I'm going with this? :P:lol:

In all seriousness...fuzzy photos aren't telling a story other than nobody can see what you are photographing. Digital photos are "free". If they aren't in focus (and your first photo is, so you are capable of it), then delete the fuzzy photos and reshoot them. Sometimes you need to step back a bit and use the telephoto to focus, rather than hold the camera too close. Macro doesn't guarantee they'll be in focus.

I think it looks nice.

I've had trouble getting digital cameras to focus, too. Must be like the younger "digital generation" and not be able to pay attention for beans.

May I suggest a fixed-focus 35-mm camrea? Walgreens has an inexpensive one that still takes decent pictures and has a promotion that'll give you free film for life. The nice thing about a fixed-focus camera is you'll know almost immediately if the picture is in focus or not if you're about 3-4 feet back.

As for developing, I use Target. for $3.49, they'll develop your film and put it on a CD for you, or about $7 with a CD and prints. The CD will upload into Photobucket with no problems.
