This is an experiment in building a 1:15 figure.
I built this for a friend (you know who you are!) who might use this principle in one of his future builds.
Based a man of 6ft/180cms. Normally I would superhero-ify my builds by increasing the size of their chest, reduce their waist and lengthen their legs but this is guy has been left 'normal'.
I have purposely left him unfinished so details and gadgets can be added to him later. By changing the colours of the tiles you can easily create clothing.
It was challenging to produce a figure that can do all the poses required (see next photo). If required you can change the elbows to clip hinges (as opposed to plate hinges as shown here).
I hope you like him, at the very least I hope he has given you some ideas.

Taken with a Canon T2i/550D and Canon 100mm f/2.8 Macro lens at f/5.6. 63 1/30-second exposures at ISO100 in a focus stack (DoF stack) were combined with Zerene Stacker using DMap mode. Shooting was done tethered to a PC using the Canon EOS utility. Focus stepping was done by pressing the live view ">" focus button once between each exposure in the stack.
Switched out the 24-70 2.8 today to try out my 50 1.4G on the D700. It did not disappoint!
Jason you were right :)
Week 1:
Libra is the only zodiac symbol that's neither animal nor human -- but surely that doesn't make you any less human. In fact, Libra is among the most sociable of the signs. As scales of old were really "balances," so do you seek balance in all that Libra does. You respond to situations with grace as Libra attempts to put others at ease. Artistically, Libra tries to balance form, content, colors and elements, and for this reason can be drawn toward creative endeavors.
Kicking off a weekly collaboration with my fellow libra, the inspiring, gorgeous and amazing Vanessa.

**彼女は後ろ向きに歩いてる瞬間である。
ボクは右側のヤレた窓や室外機を見上げるアングルで
フィンダーをのぞいていた。
ふっと誰かが横切ったのでフィンダーから目線を外すと
彼女がボクの前をピースサインのまま通り過ぎた。
友達のカメラに向かってるみたいに気軽で素敵な笑顔で。
我に返ると彼女はスタスタと歩いて行ってしまっている。
ボクはその背中に思わず
「撮らせて~~」と声を掛けていた。
すると彼女は振り向き、ポーズを取ってくれた。
後ろ向きに歩きながら。
この歩きながら・・・に少しの照れを感じてボクの胸は
キュンとしたのである。
************
上アングルだったので反射的にSSを2段下げて遠ざかる彼女に
焦りながらピントを探る。笑顔が消えないうちに・・・
「パシャ」
「ありがと~」
「ふふふ」
後で確認したらSSは1/60だった。
露出はバッチリ。しかしピンが後ろに抜けるようじゃ
まだまだ甘いねQ君。せめて前に・・・
こんなピントで喜ぶのはお好み焼き屋だけ。
でもこういう、ちょっとした笑顔のすれ違いって
幸せな気分になれますよね。
ピンが甘かろうが何だろうがとても良い写真だ。
おおげさに言えば愛がある。
だからこそスナップの反射神経をもっと鍛えねば・・
なんて心に誓ったのである。(誓ったは言い過ぎか)
そんなボクの1/60秒間の恋の物語。 fin.

“Once upon a time”
Once upon a time, there was a girl who had a penchant for origami cranes and all things whimsical. She lived in a small kingdom not too far from the sea or the mountains. She wished she could ride off into the sunset on her noble steed and never look back. Problem is, she didn't have one. Yet. Though at one point, she did have her very own knight in shining armor. But she was scared of happily ever after, because that rarely happened in her story. So she ran away. He didn’t come after her, and she didn't know how to get him back.
Once upon a time, this girl decided to begin a year-long project. So she climbed down from her tower and ventured out into the world to take fifty two photographs in fifty two weeks.
A new year, a new daily self-portrait project.
I struggled coming up with an idea/plan. I needed to be reasonable in finding something I can actually do every single day consistently. I had a few ideas centering around the word "raw." A "this is middle age" sort of chronicle with documentary-style photos and a combination of self-portraits overlaid with garbage from the day were two concepts I pondered. I like overlaying a second image as I did this past year. I loved the ones where I used writing.
Which brought me to this:
A daily self-portrait, any or all of me in it but all probably pretty raw/bare images, with an overlay of a short journal-style entry I write the same day about any thought(s) roaming my brain.
I'm going to try hard to write uncensored and be brave about what I post. This will be by its nature personal and intimate, and probably pretty weird at times too. :)

Chapter 1 - Episode 5
Location: Urban Sector - Forgotten Alleyway, World of Ruin
Xerith was far from the jungles and swamps of her homeland, sent on a scouting mission, a fool’s errand in her mind, into the heart of the Urban Sector. This was the first time she had walked these crumbling streets, old and ravaged by time. Xerith was conditioned from a young age to never venture beyond the city limits. She grew up on stories that told of brave wanderers who entered the forgotten city, and never returned. This only served to peak her curiosity. She would sit alone in the treetops, dreaming of the day she could see it, walk among its people, and plunder its secrets. One day, her wish came true. Her clan was desperate for supplies and alternative sources of power, a rare commodity in the Cursed Marches, at the end of the world. Xerith was well trained, for a thief. Her cloaking technology allowed her to remain unseen as she traversed the broken landscapes of the Urban Sector, twin pistols at her side. When she finally arrived, Xerith couldn’t help but think; this was not the city she had imagined in her youth. It was much worse.
Settlements were sparse, and didn’t take kindly to her presence. Life was harsh for these Wanderers, every day a struggle for survival. She found no allies here and quite frankly, there was nothing to steal, nothing to plunder. It didn’t take long for Xerith to discover that it was safer to travel under the cover of darkness, as brutish creatures with green skin scavenged the remains during the daylight hours. She had never seen the likes of these creatures before. What were they? Where did they come from? Their armor was strong, and they had an equally strong distaste for Wanderers, like her. Still, she could cover a lot of ground, moving silently among the toppling buildings and decaying roadways.
She was alone. Until one day, a chance meeting, she came across another lone Wanderer, much like herself. For reasons she can’t explain, something drew Xerith to him. He carried with him a single long rifle, and seemed well versed in surviving here. Had he always lived in the Urban Sector? She was intrigued, but feared revealing her intentions to him. Instead, she decided it was best to tail him; perhaps this lone Wanderer could lead her to fulfilling her mission. She stayed close to him, remaining cloaked at all times. He always wandered alone, and stayed away from large settlements. She quickly developed a feeling of safety, knowing she wasn’t alone anymore. On several occasions, Xerith would awaken to the sounds of him stirring in his sleep. It was almost as if, he was talking to someone, in his dreams. Whatever the case, this Wanderer was highly skilled with his weapon and knew how to evade the green-skinned ones. She witnessed it firsthand not long ago. Xerith was unsure if this Wanderer knew where he was going, or if he simply walked along, hoping to find something, or someone. But this day, this day felt different.
The lone Wanderer walked down a faintly lit alleyway. She uncloaked and peered around the corner, a broken structure obscured her from view. The Wanderer took cover; a fully armored green-skin was repairing some kind of old world motor bike. At last. Xerith saw an opportunity, a wealth of supplies just waiting to be plundered. The green-skin would make this task quite difficult, however. She noticed the Wanderer cocking his long rifle, and positioning himself to take the shot. How, she thought to herself. She thought him foolish, the green-skin was armored to the teeth; she failed to see how he was going to.... CRACK! The sound of a bullet whipping through the air forced her to the ground. She looked up in time to see the green-skin’s head nearly disintegrate before her eyes. The bullet met its target, who fell to ground, dead. She had never seen a shot so skilled. A great feeling of respect came over her, who was this Wanderer?
Xerith watched in utter disbelief as the Wanderer claimed his prize, so easily. He must have wanted the motor bike badly enough to risk open conflict with a green-skinned one. She watched as the Wanderer replaced some parts on the motor bike, and then retired inside one of the crumbling stalls, lit by a single burning torch. She waiting for him to fall asleep, and then began scavenging the alleyway. She was interrupted only once, in the middle of the night, by the sounds of his voice. He stirred, dreaming, she couldn’t help but notice that there was something familiar about this. Was he having the same dream, over and over again?

To be continued....
I read many articles that mention the golden ratio and the golden section but they all normally refer to the PHI rectangle. There is so much more to learn about the golden section than just PHI. I thought I'd share one of the grids I use for my art. This is a 1.5 golden section rectangle (a square and a half) which contains two overlapping root four rectangles which are themselves double squares. The red lines indicate what is known as the rubated square or "St. Andrews Cross" I love the geometry of this rectangle.
Monahangray left Dragswood shortly after Brant. He traveled east for the coast of Dragswood meaning to find a ship to take him to the islands north of Amroth. At the small village of Camtasa the bard pause form his travels. He visited the village cemetery and knelt before the grave of Garath Brink. The man had been Monahangray's stepfather who had raised him and tough him what it was to be a man. Now he offered prayers to and for that man. Asking the questions the living ask the dead and seeking knowledge from beyond the grave. The only answers Monahangray received came from within himself but the time he spent there brought Monahangray new strength a resolve. The following day the bard sailed away from Dragswood and into the ghosts of his past.
I've decided to continue the story of Monahangray though GAC#1 in a series of vigs. More to came from both Brant and Monahangray!
