my latest photos in a decorative atmosphere of the winter season.
"Battle of the Rothière February 1, 1814:
the "brave" 18 took part in the battle.
Adapted Screenplay historical facts as usual ....
In early 1814, the Allies, encouraged by their victory at Leipzig and the retreat of the French army, approached the natural borders of France.
Blücher's Prussians crossed the Meuse at the end of January, and Schwarzenberg's Austrians advanced on the Langres plateau. The danger that these two forces together to march on Paris prompted Napoleon to make himself the leadership.
Blücher to Schwarzenberg joined Trannes, northwest of the village of La Rothière, and advanced to meet Napoleon with 50,000 men, followed by reinforcements. The Battle of La Rothière took place on 1 February, in a snowstorm.
With a little ahead of schedule, I wish all hobby enthusiasts, a happy holiday season.:wink2:
Next year, 2013, the bicentenary of numerous battles to stage with my toy soldiers.

FLEURUS - LIGNY: 15 & 16 June 1815 - last victories ..........
Hello to all.
I held my free time for a few days of vacation.
To start this new year with a bit ahead of schedule, in the plains of Belgium, two days before WATERLOO ....
After reading many articles and visit on this last and fatal campaign of Emperor ...... germinated in my "small brain" , the idea of making one of the often mentioned and reproduced on many images or paintings of this period.
Baulet, Brye, Gilly, Fleurus, Naveau ..... you'll understand these names with these windmills inseparable landscapes of Belgium and especially crucial observation points on the battlefield .....
You know my pleasure in manufacturing decorative elements in "scracth" to set position of parts of my collection, so I have taken the tools and glue .....
me .... trying to bring the best of these sources of inspiration ...
My mill consists of 9 elements removable (for space-saving storage) and nested assembled without glue, and as "real", he turned and blades (wings) before they received "balls" Prussian turned depending on prevailing winds naturally ....
Now that the stage is set ... place the images.:tongue:
I take this opportunity to wish everyone a happy new year 2013.

Another masterpiece of yours, Guy {bravo}}
Very, very beautiful detailed work on your windmill.
And that is not just a thrown in comment :wink2:, because as the owner of your previously built fortified village, I now really do know how your work looks like eye to eye.
Great job, Guy :salute::

Hi all,
A big thank you (Geb, Konrad, Frank, Xavier, NAP 1 sahara vezzolf) for your comments on my work.
Yes (Vezzolf) is a scracth building.
A small summary how I do:
base materials are extruded polystyrene, cardboard fort old calendar weaker cardboard packaging kind of grain, the wood comes from vegetable crates: for example, I cut the planks of the walls of the mill in a tray provided with "potatoes "that I glued one by one onto the frame made of strong cardboard.
I never buy balsa, I find that the rendering of wood fibers is higher with this crate of Recycling.
Slates are strips of cardboard packaging this time grain that I designed, cut and pasted.
The blades are also made with Recycling diverse and varied piece of wood lying around in my basement.
It is in my daily life that I often find the products sold for something else and I tell myself as much handyman "it can still be used!"
Example sticks to the wings are at the origin of peaks appetizer found in a store ...
Here, "my secrets" nothing extraordinary imagination, the system D (resourceful, "demerde" in French! .. Etc ...^&grin

Hi all,
This is a moment that I have not posted any news.
I found the inspiration and the desire for a new diorama.
I picked up tools and brushes!
Some photos 'stealth' of my work in progress that will occupy the entire year 2013.
I let everyone care to imagine what my project is moving .....^&confuse:salute::
PS: the horse is a piece Atlas MSHP I painted (missing many details on it, but for the final use that I want to do, it will "case"
