Realización de un Audiovisual del Grupo en los "Jueves Fotográficos" de Caja España
Hola buenas tardes, este año nuestros amigos de la Asociación Fotográfica Vallisoletana han tenido la deferencia de cedernos un espacio expositivo dentro de los “Jueves Fotográficos” que organizan en colaboración con Caja España.
Agradecerles desde aquí dicho gesto que han tenido con nosotros.
Los datos ya confirmados referentes a dicho Audiovisual son los siguientes:
Jueves día 23 de Diciembre de 2010
A las 20:00 Horas
En el Salón de Actos de Caja España, Plaza de España nº 13 de Valladolid
Titulo del Audiovisual: Grupo Flickr “Fotógrafos de Valladolid” – Lo Mejor de 2010
En un principio se pretendía hacer algo similar a lo que ya hicimos en el 2009 con la elección de las mejores fotos del año para luego realizar un montaje con ellas, pero debido a problemas con la fechas se ha optado por este formato, sin animo competitivo y donde cada uno elegirá sus fotos para aportarlas a dicho trabajo sin que haya una votación de por medio.
Se intentara hacer dicho formato como el año pasado, por ese motivo se pone con tanta antelación este hilo aun sabiendo que faltan mas de 2 meses, pero todos sabemos el trabajo que lleva coordinar todo esto y así nos dará tiempo a hacer ambas cosas sin que se solapen.
El audiovisual tendrá una duración aproximada de unos 30 min.
Calculando para ello unas 180-200 fotografías en total, dando a los tiempos de transición unas pausas adecuadas para visionar las mismas, haciendo dicho trabajo lo más dinámico y atractivo tanto a nivel visual como de música de fondo.
Por ello se ponen dos fechas para reunir dichas imágenes que son las siguientes:
Del 17 al 31 de este mes de Octubre se podrán apuntar en este hilo todos aquellos miembros del grupo que estén interesados en participar en dicha iniciativa.
Una vez que se contabilicen las personas interesadas, se hará un reparto equitativo de cuantas fotos aportara cada uno.
Se trata de que todo el mundo que así lo desee participe y en este sentido no hay ninguna limitación de personas.
Del 1 al 14 de Noviembre todo el mundo que se haya apuntado con anterioridad deberá aportar a este hilo el nº de fotografías que le correspondan.
El tema elegido para las fotos será LIBRE, y las fotografías por supuesto deberán de haberse subido al mural del grupo en este año 2010.
Como apunte se baraja la posibilidad de hacer copias físicas de ese DVD con una calidad mas que aceptable, con sus carátulas e impresión en la superficie del mismo, con un coste aproximado por unidad de unos 2 €.
Dato este ultimo que podéis comentar ya para saber que nº de copias habría que mandar hacer.
De estas impresiones se presentara factura para que no quede ninguna duda de su coste.
Sin mas espero que os animéis, que no seáis perezosos y que nos de tiempo a hacer las dos cosas este año, el Audiovisual de Caja España y la elección de la Mejor Foto del Grupo del 2010.
P.D. Podeis apuntaros ya en este hilo:

A ШРM-3 in 1st Armored Division Livery, 1992. Notable is the rubberized coating over the mantlet; this was a measure to ensure NBC protection whilst enabling a flexible covering over the mantlet region.
Designed using the ПТХ-2 Infantry Fighting Vehicle’s chassis, the ШРM-3 was designed as a lightweight, cheap alternative to a full main battle tank. The chassis was lengthened from its IFV counterpart, an extra road wheel added on each side, and the Natalian engine swapped out for a much larger one of Kimmerian design and relocated to the rear. This necessitated a transmission shaft running from the rear of the tank to the front, which caused some headaches for crews as it cramped the turret well significantly. However, it made up for these faults in firepower, with a powerful 120mm Б0-OM gun, a modified variant of Kimmerian firm Sarva design, with a shortened barrel. The ShRM (Assault Reconnaissance Vehicle) has not yet seen combat, but as early as September-1990 have been photographed patrolling Sagolian Insurgent-occupied areas.
Thanks to Ian for inspiration for the turret, he had made a redesign of one of my own oscillating designs which I gave my best shot at reverse-engineering. Now with 360' rotating turret!
In the style of Cagerrin, I shall also list musical culprits now:

Features full four wheel steering, working winch and rotating gun.
While not being some of my best work, this is definitely a step in the right direction to get out from under my builders block.
Thoughts?
Suspension reworked, more paneling, and 4 TOW missiles added to the model (the missiles are optional :D). Still have to rework the windshield and some of the holes on the "door" areas.
The Wicket was designed to bolster the anti-tank capabilities of the Central Efrikkan Republic, rolling out of the factory starting in 1978. Soon after introduction to service, the vehicles were upgraded with the Evolved Water Operations Kit (E-WOK). This allowed them to not only ford shallow rivers and streams but also float in calmer deep lakes.
Did you know that all TOW missile mounts look stupid?

Austin helped me "almost" finish our newest Stuey today. He threw most of our AFVs all together and wanted me to take a quick picture before I packed all my gear away for a wedding shoot this week. I did not take much time to edit it.
M4 Sherman, Willys(bad), 250, StuGGer, Aufklarer, 38t, M3 Stuart, M5 stuart, UE with PaK36, 222, Schwimmwagen, PzrJgr 38t, StuH 42, RSO PaK40. Pzr III is also getting overhauled. Our first M3 Stuart is now permanently on display at the Military Museum. :)
Some are in WIP form, Missing tiles and such. Big order of tracks should be delivered this week. Achilles, Lee, and a Pzr II should be done soon as long as orders come in when they are supposed to. Not really holding my breath though. :( Been waiting on these 2 orders for quite a while.

The Centaur APC is a versatile, lightweight, rugged and affordable APC that has become the backbone of SAA forces since it's introduction in the early 50's. Carrying 8 dismounts and a crew of either 2 or 3 the Centaur and it's variants have found their way into nearly every branch of the South African military. This little battle taxi is still soldiering on nearly 40 years after its introduction but it is beginning to show its age as its thin armor and light armament have begun to catch up with it.

I built a new turret for my Rhino AFV. The tank can hold the same amount of soldiers but it can now hold more ammo for the main gun in its extended turret. The turret is also lower than the old one and it looks better with the tanks design IMO.
Inspired by the German AFV, Hanomag SdKfz 251. Now it's just a single model, but, who knows, maybe it will be a part of some bigger project...
P.S. Thanks to SiMaI7 for the idea.
P.P.S. Renders are on the way...
The Armored Fighting Vehicle 110 Stag was developed by Vintergrön Systems and first put into service in 1992. The vehicle is able to carry up to 9 passengers. standard armament is typically a remote operated .50cal machinegun, however it can also mount a smaller 7.62 machinegun. Variants of the vehicle are also used as ambulances, ATGM carriers, command vehicles, CBRN Reconnaissance and more.
