XVI Military-historical exhibition in Moscow 2016

   The annual Military-historical exhibition is the only big "live" competition that we have in Moscow for last two years. So I want to express my deep appreciation to the contest organizers who still support our hobby and give us this pleasure - to show our works.
   This year judges identified quite a large number of categories according to amout of work-participants, and it's good! That is why there were a lot of prizes. Also it was the first time I made several steps in historical miniature painting. That's why it's a double please to have good marks from judges.

   Ежегодная Всероссийская выставка стендового моделизма, которую проводит Техника Молодежи, последние два года является единственным крупным "живым" конкурсом в Москве. Поэтому хочу выразить огромнейшую благодарность организаторам, которые продолжают поддерживать наше хобби и дарят нам такой праздник и возможность показать наши работы.
  В этом году судьи выделили достаточно большое количество категорий, видимо, в соответствии с количеством работ-участников. Поэтому наград было много. Кроме того, я впервые сделала несколько шагов в исторической миниатюре, поэтому вдвойне приятно, что эти шаги были оценены судьями.

Bananalicious2 - my results!


http://massivevoodoo.blogspot.ru/2015/07/bananalicious-2-winners.html
  
  If you're in this hobby, you know Massive Voodoo, of course, the incredible monkey gang from Germany. Since my first days in hobby they influenced on my painting - with their blog with tons of wonderful articles about all in the hobby - theory and practice, with their stunning works, which always were as an example for me for super quality painting and crazy-idea-base-building. 
   I was lucky to meet some members of MV team in my life and spent several days with them. Now I'm talking about Roman and Raffa, who are, to my mind, an engine of all team. I'll always keep in my heart those two days of private coaching with you, your hospitality and alacrity to share with all your knowledge with us.
  And now I want to thank you again for Bananalicious2. You've done the biggest on-line contest in our hobby-world and did it twice)! Thank you for all that time, spending with mails, pictures and discussions, I can't even imagine how hard it was. And it's a honor to me to participate in such event and especially win some prizes, because the competition was really brutal!

   Also I want thanks Toni, the owner of army which won silver on this contest. We're working about two years together for creating Space Eldar army (and doing it now - with new units). I am grateful for all your ideas in painting and conversions, and for this commission at all. It's a big work in my painting life.

  And, of course, I want to thanks Peter, the owner of Harlequin Wraithlord. His wonderful and sad  story about eldar twins inspires me for the greatest work in this year. It was so interesting to solve that task and embody Peter's history on the real model, to show all that he wrote about. And I'm so happy that Wraithlord won "The best of show"! It means that I've done all right and other people can see the history in the model. 

 So my result in Bananalicious is:
Army Painting - silver
Fantasy Master - gold 
Best of show
Best of Master categories
  I'm very proud of it, because much time has passed since the last international contest where I took a part. And this small win lights my heart and inspires for new interesting projects!

Military-historical exhibition in TM-club store in Moscow 2014

   And again in this year I took a part in the Military-historical exhibition in TM-club store in Moscow. The quantity (and quality) of works in Fantasy category shows the interest of fantasy painters in this contest. So the contest organizers divided one category (accordingly to rules) on two: fantasy 28 mm and fantasy vignettes. So we have twice more prizes! 
   I was lucky to get two: silver in fantasy 28 mm and gold in fantasy vignettes. So here they are:

2nd place in fantasy 28 mm - Nekhar the Ecstatic

1st place in fantasy vignettes - Ariadna Chasseurs ("Сaught by light flash")

Hussar 2013



 Ok, I've just returned from Poland full with emotions and want to write a very brief post before I'll calm down ).
  First, it was a really strong competition especially in two categories: Single fantasy and Large Models (monsters, busts and so on). There were a lot of amazing works! It is worth to go there to see such beauty!
  Second,  I so wanted to see the Poland painting community "face to face", to look at their painting "stars". And I've got a great pleasure to meet them all in reality! It was so interesting and exciting!
  My special congratulatoin to all winners on this contest and especially to Stefan (Skelettet S) for his overall! 

  Я только что вернулась из Польши, полная эмоций и впечатлений, и, пока не успокоилась, напишу коротенький отчет о поездке.
  Во-первых, что хочется сказать, что уровень работ на конкурсе был впечатляющий. Особенно шокировали две категории - Одиночная Фентези и Большие модели. Огромное количество потрясающих работ! Действительно, стоило туда съездить, чтобы увидеть это собственными глазами!
  Во-вторых, я очень хотела увидеть польское коммьюнити "в живую", посмотреть на звезд покрасочного мира. И было очень приятно встретить их в реальной жизни!
  Мои поздравления всем победителям конкурса, и особенно - Стефану  (Skelettet S) за его оверолл!

  I have a little bit pics of works from there. I'm sure that later you can see a lot of them in good quality on different sourses, but what I have right now:
 У меня есть немного фотографий с мероприятия. Я уверена, что в сети вскоре будут выкладываться более информативные альбомы, но пока у меня есть вот это:
Gold in Fantasy single

To my mind it was Bronze (left) and silver (right) (by Artur Żołędowski) in Fantasy single
Gold in Unit
Silver in unit (by Kirill Kanaev)
Silver in Large Models (by Karol Rudyk)
Gold in Large Models  and overall (by Stefan Johnsson)


Stefan and Mike participate in speed painting competition )

I had three enties in this contest. Two of them became finalists in Single Fantasy and War Machine categories. All of them are new works and I will publish them later.  
Я участвовала в трех категориях. В двух из них я получила место финалиста (Одиночная Фентези и Боевые Машины). Все работы были новые, я их опубликую чуть попозже.

Results of The Crystal Hammer 2013


The Crystal Hammer 2013 took place at 29, June in Moscow as a part of  the annual Moscow Games Day.
Everything went as usual: lots of board games, a bit of miniatures, several game tables. In principle, you could find something to occupy yourself for a holiday. But all spoil a few points: 35 degree heat, the room without air conditioning and no chairs to "sit down." In the end I felt in a fog and was
in a strange state of my mind at the awards ceremony at five o'clock.
Showcases were placed really bad because of rear lighting so it was hard to look at the works (no words about the photography). Thank you so much for Yarik's first photo report, where you can see some of the prizes! I took some photo and insert it in my list untill I'll find the official photos.
