Hello again everyone.
This year has been both a difficult and busy one for me so I haven't had as much of an opportunity to get photos of my builds. I have also made, it seems, 2019 to be a year of primarily building vehicles of the United States Armed Forces (USAF).
Over the next week I hope to get some better photos of each vehicle so that I may upload them for all to enjoy, but don't quote me on that time period.
In this photo you will see my 2019 USAF builds of:
AH-64 Apache
UH-1Y Venom
AH-1Z Viper
CH-53K King Stallion
Lockheed U2
A-10 Thunderbolt II
MQ-9 Reaper
LCAC
Mk.2 PBR
4x Cougar HE 6x6 (1 IED stricken)
M777 Howitzer
M198 Howitzer
Weapons from left to right: mini-rocket launcher, anti-personnel machine gun, sniper rifle, vibro blade, anti-mech shotgun, flame thrower, underslung vibro blade, one-shot RPG.

When we first arrived at our camp in the middle of nowhere it all felt very imposing. There was a tall electric fence right round the site and guards on the entrance gate. I'm not sure if all this was designed to keep the animals out or us in.
We signed up the day after arrival to go on a walk outside the camp. My initial thoughts were that this would be a little dicey what with all the animals that could potentially eat us. In reality I think the majority of them were more scared of us that we were of them. 15 or so of us walked through the perimeter fence and down onto the banks of the river just below us.
In addition to our guide we took this armed guard with us. He looked like he was out on a Sunday stroll as he lent against this tree which gave us the impression that he'd never had to fire his gun in anger. Our guide said he wouldn't have shot an animal if it had appeared anyway, just warned it away with the noise of his semi automatic rifle. It amused me no end at our naivety about all things safari. We did learn quickly though and laughed at some of our daft preconceived ideas.

This picture was pretty much to display my old Batman minifigures. I have all of the villains except Bane.
A leatherman in black leather pants, jacket, and gauntlet gloves, with a pistol on his hip. Firearms safety instruction: www.nssf.org/safety/basics/ Guns are not playthings. Assume the weapon is loaded. It is. Assume I know how to use it. I do. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Colt_Python quotes experts who "described the Python as the finest production revolver ever made".

Contrary to it’s name the Three Armed Sloth is a marvel in speed, balance and neural augmentation. The battle armor suit protects the wearer from weapons damage but it also amplifies strength and keeps balance even in high speed and tricky terrain.
Neural connectors gets feed directly from the brain and the suit can therefore react in real time to the wearers moves. It can also feed data and stimulus back to the brain.
Mounted on the back of the suit is the real reason for it’s efficiency in combat. A robotic arm that can wield a multitude of weapons and mimics every move of the suit's right arm. This suit is armed with an Anti-Armor-Vibro-Sword that can cut through steel, stone and armed concrete like it’s made of paper.
On the other end of the robotic arm is the counter weight and the balancing machinery that keeps the suit in the right position and keeps the wearer from feeling any of the additional weight and momentum from the arm. Some arms have mounting points for additional weaponry, like the one seen here. A double barrel Auto-Target-Anti-Personnel-Rail-Gun tracks targets and feeds the results directly into the visual cortex of the wearer.
The wearer carries a "control pad". Shaped like a sword and weighted properly to make the feeling of swinging a sword feel more like the real thing. The controller is equipped with triggers for the various weaponry the suit carries.

Ever since I saw this great moc by polywen I've been somewhat fascinated by the Galidor heads. Allegra's head in particular. I think it's one of the best minifig heads LEGO ever did.
So I bought one. Since then I've wanted to build something fitting this great LEGO piece. Not long thereafter I stumbled onto this sketch by Trevor Claxton. I knew I had to try to build something like that. I think I have been trying to build this for at least a year. Trying to find the right parts. The right proportions. Now, I really need to be finished with this MOC, or I think I might go insane :)
This is my version of Allegra. Allegra 2.0. This is what Galidor should have been.
The Whippany Railway Museum and the Military Transport Association of North Jersey cosponsored special train rides over the Morristown & Erie Railway on Armed Forces Day (May 19). Five round trip excursion trains operated from Whippany to Morristown. The train consist included the MTA's military box car and the United Railroad Historical Society's PRR flatcar loaded with a pair of Army Jeep. The 3:00 p.m. train is departing Morristown for the return trip to Whippany.

Don't mess with the little lady... she's armed and dangerous. Just kind of liked how this turned out...in reality she's one of the sweetest kids I know.
i knew the farmer had cut the crops so access to the hill was not an issue , as got to the top could here shotguns going off , yes this guy had a hide under the tree shooting pigeons , how dare he when the fulffies were HUGE , but was sporty and posed for this shot when i asked him to point the gun at the camera he just thought is this guy for real :-) both barrels were fully loaded , he was having some luck also. i settled for this shot as we were spoiling his shooting. Goes to show how dangerous this hobby can be ??
The gun owner would not as it was loaded as you can see his gun was no fully set up he was very safety aware i will add , if it was unloaded he would have willingly ( there was little / no danger as he saw us climbing the hill and walked down to greet us ) he also had the farmers permission to shoot there ) , we left after this shot as it was not a position we wanted to be in as his friend was in the next field
