Before this, Bob had some old Saturn coupe, something he bought used. It was kind of a beater. I seem to recall that the license plate frame made some sort of suggestion that the previous owner was originally from the UK. For whatever reason, Bob kept it on the car. He wasn't a Brit - he was originally from Wisconsin.
White Squirrel is still about so can't really carry on calling it the Christmas Squirrel and as I am not sure if its a boy or a girl I was going to call it Rebel or Bob and in the end decided on Bob (sorry if you are not a Blackadder fan you will not understand why).
Bob-omb Battlefield is the first stage of Super Mario 64 - the flagship game for the N64 game system. This game came out way back when I was just a freshman in college, and I have great memories of endless game nights with friends playing this game.
I've had the idea of doing a Super Mario layout for a while, but just what to do escaped me. (Lego versions of the original NES games have been done quite often). Upon finding my old N64 in 'storage', I was inspired to create this.
Bob-omb Battlefield can be seen this weekend (Dec. 14th and 15th, 2013) at NITLC's Christmas Train Show. in Wheaton, Illinois.
I have also created a video fly-by of the entire scene, here.
Everyone, this is Bob. Bob the Pygmy Owl loves to entertain his fellow employees at the ACME Moist T-owl-ette Factory company parties by doing celebrity impressions. Can you guess hoo he is imitating here? Yes, that's right: R2-D2. Everyone loves Bob!

thank you for visiting, and for your kind comments and favorites. they are greatly appreciated.
Mrs. Dingle asked Bob to fix her wooden fence which her runaway bullock had damaged. Bob said he's normally a brick'n'mortar man but a cash job was always handy, as he could buy a few extra pints at the Pub, and he didn't have to bother the taxman. 2 hours of hard work and Bob was very proud of his fixed fence. "Shit!" he exclaimed, " I forgot to put the gate in!!" Ha ha, silly Bob. Now he's going to be late for his date with Wendy from the office.
"Everybody needs a friend, even a cloud."
Dang I love Bob Ross. He is just a wonderful human being, that sadly left this earth too early. His soothing voice, his wonderful paintings, his love for animals... I love him. This is definitly one of my favourite figures I've made without a doubt. Shoutout to TheMooseFigs aswell, his Bob Ross fig looks awesome, and since I am horrible at making wrinkles, I took alot of inspiration from his. On to this happy little figure.
The face was 100% painted, and the beard was sculpted. The arms are painted, with e-tape to represent his rolled up sleeves.
His torso was painted in my own blue colour, then i painted the details. Again, Props to Dylan for the wrinkles.
His belt and buckle is e-tape, and I painted him some jeans.
The brush is sculpted, and the palet? was made with plastic (I lightly sanded it so it looked kinda misty) and a little transparent rod. It's complete with all of Bob's different paint. Including, cadmium yellow, indian yellow, bright red, titanium hwite, midnight black, alizarin crimson, prussian blue, phthalo blue, van dyke brown, and sap green.
Oh, and his little mini painting, was made by me, trying to follow a Bob Ross tutorial.
I hope you enjoyed my figure, god bless, and happy faving ; )
Finally after a couple months wait, it arrived straight from the North of England, a custom order Bob Jackson/BLB frame (same as the Vigorelli with the exception of the Paul trackend, fluted seat stay and flat crown fork), still not finished with the build yet as this is temporary.
It ride like a beaut too despite not being as zippy as my old track bike, there's nothing better than riding a frame that fit you perfectly. view large for detail.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia ~ The Wood Duck or Carolina Duck (Aix sponsa) is a medium-sized perching duck. A typical adult is about 19 inches in length with an average wingspan of 29 inches. This is about three-quarters of the length of an adult Mallard. It shares its genus with the Asian Mandarin Duck...
The adult male has distinctive multi-colored iridescent plumage and red eyes. The female, less colorful, has a white eye-ring and a whitish throat. Both adults have crested heads. When swimming, wood ducks bob their head back and forth in a jerking motion, which makes them easy to spot.
Their breeding habitat is wooded swamps, shallow lakes, marshes or ponds in eastern North America, the west coast of the United States and western Mexico. They usually nest in cavities in trees close to water, although they will take advantage of nesting boxes in wetland locations if available. Their personality is shy and skittish.
Females typically lay between 9 and 14 eggs. However, if nesting boxes are placed too close together, females may lay eggs in the nests of their neighbors, which may lead to nests which may contain as many as 40 eggs and unsuccessful incubation, a behavior known as "nest dumping". They prefer nesting over water so the young have a soft landing, but will nest up to 150 yards (140 m) away from the shoreline. The day after they hatch, the young climb to the nest entrance and jump to the ground. The baby ducks can swim and find their own food by this time.
The birds are year-round residents in East Texas and other southern parts of their range, but the northern populations migrate south for the winter. They overwinter in the southern United States near the Atlantic coast. They are also popular, due to their attractive plumage, in waterfowl collections and as such are frequently recorded in Great Britain as escapes - populations have become temporarily established in Surrey in the past but are not considered to be self-sustaining in the fashion of the closely related Mandarin Duck. Given its native distribution the species is also a potential natural vagrant to Western Europe and there have been records in areas such as Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly which some observers consider may relate to wild birds; however, given the Wood Duck's popularity in captivity it would be extremely difficult to prove their provenance one way or another.
These birds feed by dabbling or walking on land. They mainly eat berries and seeds, but also insects, making them omnivores.
The male's call is a rising whistle; the female gives a whistled whoo-eek if startled.
Aix sponsaThe population of the Wood Duck was in serious decline at the beginning of the 20th century as a result of over-hunting and loss of suitable nesting sites. Changes in game laws and the construction of nesting boxes in suitable habitat resulted in this species' return to sustainable numbers.
Landowners as well as park and refuge managers can encourage Wood Ducks by building Wood Duck nest boxes near lakes, ponds, and streams. Fulda, Minnesota has adopted the wood duck as an unofficial mascot, and a large number of nest boxes can be found in the area.
Bob was on the southeast corner of Randolph and Clark. During the day, he hands out flyers for a local restaurant. "This is my post from 9 to 2", he said. although he's not homeless, he needs clothing for his children, age 15 and 16. "I don't (necessarily) need cash money", he said. Food vouchers and gift cards also help him provide for his family. He was friendly and definitely a provider for his family.
Sometime back in the 1990's, Bob caught this southbound along the Bad River just south of Mellen, WI Will we ever see a train here again? Time will tell....
My last redscale shot from the 116 box camera. Normally can get 5 shots on a roll but my 5th one didn't come out.

I use this fishing bobber as the attachment to our hummingbird feeder (as a neon attractor...) it was litter (found with hook still attached...), that I picked up while yakking...
