1812 Campaign of Russia

[Susofrick]

Very nice! And the chap in the first pic wasn't ready for the photo while the chap in the last don't like the photo at all!

[ADM]

Susofrick, there's always bodyguards nearby and they're quite civilized now, but in the past it was not always the case and a few used violence against official photographers and others...! but they were fired.

Some more beautiful top models !

Hello ADM
Following your Cannes event in 1812 Russian campaign
Like your pictures. Most of the names I don’t know. Am I too old? Not enough interest in movies?
Some I reckognize. It is fun
Thanks for sharing
Michael

[Kekso]

Most of the names I don’t know.

And I thought I was the only one... It seems I just wasn't brave enough to admit it first

[ADM]

Those stars are famous in their own country but mostly unknow in others countries and they met in Cannes each year ! The United State is the only country whose stars are famous everywhere in the world ! and it's the same for movies.

A few more photo took this saturday. Of course I'm not taking photos of all the stars of this Film Festival but only those who cross my path !

Isabelle Huppert!

She stands out from the crowd even when walking beside a Jesus impersonator.

I hope you enjoyed the festival, judging by the photos it looks like you probably did.

[ADM]

Well, I noticed that a bot or a russian hacker tried unsuccessfuly to connect to my account because I had to go through the Captcha step who told me that it was outnumbered by connecting attempt at my first try !!! The vilain doesn't seem to be well informed about me ! I also had a hacking attack on the Airfix tribute forum with a ukrainian flag barred with "no war" added to my photos.... Anyway nothing will stop me ! and it remind me that Putin is at war with the rest of the world.

While being in Cannes for the Film festival I had time to finish the French guard horse artillery, the specificity of this unit is to have only black horses and the limber has 4 horses instead of 6, because the gun is lighter and they can move faster, they played an important role in the battle of Borodino by causing tremendous losses in the Russian guard regiments.

The base color for the wagons and pontoons is Tamiya XF57 buff, with a black wash, followed by a drybrush Vallejo 70874 tan earth, another drybrush 70874 mixed with white (90%) but only on edges. Vallejo 70864 natural steel for the metal parts, underlined in black with a thin brush.

For the artillery it’s Tamiya XF26 green with a black wash, a drybrush Tamiya XF49 Khaki, another drybrush Vallejo 70921 English uniform, which is the main tone for those very light layers of highly diluted green shades who give such result. It’s followed by a black wash only around prominent details, then a drybrush 70921 (10%) mixed with white (90%) only on edges. Metal parts are Vallejo 70864 natural steel underlined in black.

The cannon tube is painted Vallejo 70998 bronze, with a first global black wash, and after that, 2 more blackwash but only around details, then a drybrush 70998 on the details and prominent edges.

The cover for the 2 green wagons is Vallejo 70883 silvergray with a black wash and a white drybrush.
Straps and ropes are Vallejo 70837 pale sand with a black wash (90% of water mixed with 10% of black).

The base color of horses is Tamiya white, black and XF10 flat brown.

The white horses received a Vallejo black wash, a white drybrush, and a black drybrush but only on the legs. Mane and tail are painted 70819 Iraqi sand + black wash and drybrush of the sand color mixed with white. Hoof are vallejo 70874 tan earth, black eyes, mouth and nose. Muzzle is made of a drybrush (Vallejo 70870 marine grey).

The brown horses are covered with a drybrush Vallejo 70872 chocolate, legs, tail, mane and eyes are black, tail and mane drybrushed with Vallejo 70883 silvergray? White stains on muzzle or legs, hoof are 70987 medium grey.

The black horses received a drybrush black mixed with 5% of white
Tail and mane : Drybrush 70883 silvergray, hoof are pure black.

Equipment for the horses :

Saddle blanket : 70809 blue with wash and drybrush (for the black horses), 70841 Andrea blue for the others, with wash and drybrush. The red part is first painted in white, and then painted red 70909.

The straps of individual horses are black and also red close to the muzzle, for the harnessed horses it’s Vallejo 70837 pale sand underlined in black, buckles are 70864 natural steel, also underlined in black.

The base of the wagons and limbers is made of PVC sheet, 1mm thick, covered with white glue (for wood), spreaded of a mixture of earth, painted in brown, with a black wash and a pale sand (nearly white) drybrush.

French Infantry : 497

Wonderful French Camp and Guard Artillery, ADM. As well made as your creations usually are and with as many elements as you usually use.

Santi.

[Bessiere]

I've noticed your painting is sharper than ever. Even the eyes are done nicely. Titanic effort on your part ADM. Are those pontoons and wagons the Schilling figuren models? They look super nice. May have to add those to my French army.
