“We have forgotten how to relate emotionally to art: we treat it like editors, searching in it for that which the artist has supposedly hidden.”

—Andrei Tarkovsky, who would have been 91 today.

Let me *** explain

I enjoy my S&M relationship with history. Specifically, I'm talking about the 20th century. And so, uh. I present to you S.T.A.L.K.E.R. but it's an alternate universe in the setting of the movie "Stalker" by Tarkovsky.

Military+ Duty+ Monolith+ Free stalkers

Free stalkers+ Freedom Freedom+ Military

The military this time is the army of the Soviets. The uniforms of Soviet soldiers consist of regular summer casual and field military uniforms. On the chest there is an armored vest 6B2. Equipped with a gas mask PMG-2.

Free stalkers Mercenaries Mercenaries+ Monolith

Ecologists Ecologists Ecologists+ Clear Sky+

Freedom Fighters wear the modified uniforms of the U.S. military for the period from 1970 to 1980. The PASGT or Flak Vest M69 serves as protection. They use the U.S. M17 gas mask.

Since the Mercenaries in the game itself wear uniforms similar to the British SAS, I did the same. (Why not)

And an example of what it would look like.

I'll still be working on it, but here's all there is for you now.

9 MOVIES TARKOVSKY HATED AND ONE HE LOVED

Been reading Tarkovsky's diaries and letters and they're really enlightening. He occasionally wrote about films he had recently caught in the cinema, here are some excerpts:

2001: A Space Odyssey - 'A lifeless schema with only pretensions of truth'

The Godfather - 'Boring, unoriginal'

Apocalypse Now - 'Weak, cartoonish'

Lolita - 'Thoroughly empty.. Brought me nothing but sadness and disgust'

Killing of a Chinese Bookie - (on Casssavetes) 'I feel very sorry for him. I could weep.'

Manhattan - 'Monstrous boredom. I left in the middle'

Amadeus - '8 Oscars and so utterly middling!'

Tristana - 'Unbelievably vulgar'

Tre Fratelli - 'Disjointed, meaningless. It was awful'.

Terminator- 'This film pushes the frontiers of cinema as an art form'
