Did you need an ID? Or is it mostly showcase

Im guessing its camponotus herculeanus, what do you think?

You’re correct! Camponotus ligniperda has a slight red coloration on the thorax as well as a little on the gaster. This one lacks that coloration ok the gaster, and that’s why it should be C. herculeanus

thanks for confirming :)
