I swapped monitors with my mom and remade this... hopefully now there aren't any major flaws.

 

So for those of you who didn't get a chance to read my description yesterday, because I deleted these like 5 minutes after I posted them... I was playing around with Photoshop and came up with these three. I asked several people which one they liked the best (or hated the least), but all 3 pictures ended up with the same number of votes. So feedback is always appreciated.

 

Got my passport today... We're planning a trip in June to Finland, Estonia, Lithuania, Latvia, and Russia. I'm probably going to spend my birthday in Lithuania, though I'm more excited about going to St. Petersburg in Russia.

 

I HAVE GOOD NEWS! I ordered my Nikon D3000 today (:

For the first time in so so long, I went back to Leeds First Friday!

 

It's moved venue as the Cosmopolitan Hotel has closed for refurbishment so it now kicks off in the Marriott. The venue is much better - bigger, more room, ore seating, more bar staff too.

 

They also have a huge mirror which was great for group shots - unfortunately, after this, the hotel deicded to put big advertising stickers on the mirror so you can't use it like that ny more. Ah well.

 

Was absolutely brilliant to meet up with friends I hadn't seen in so long! And make new ones too.

 

After the Marriott we went to Fibre then The Bridge then Smokestackc. It was an awesome night!

 

In the Marriott bar, a great new venue for LFF!

It was so good to be back in Lincoln for a weekend after missing it last year. We love Lincoln, it's such a beautiful city.

 

Saturday evening was just a fantastic evening! We got glammed up and went out looking for somewhere to eat - more difficult than normal because of booking restrictions. But we found a nice Vietnamese place.

 

After that we walked up steep hill - it is very very steep! - in our heels! That was a first and it actually wasn't too bad - much more difficult coming down, ha ha! And at the top we met a lovely group of girls.

 

The we went off to The Scene for the evening - it was lovely to be back there. First time we had heard loud music in a public place since pre-pandemic too so it was almost like the old days, although we did have to stay seated at our table.

 

This was the lovely group of girls we met.

Sunday night we went to see our lovely and so talented friends Smooth Operator playing in Hedon.

 

We went for delicious food at the Camerton pub beforehand and even managed dessert before heading to see the gig.

 

Helen (the singer in Smooth Operator) even borrowed my Orinoco womble to wear while she was singing Wombling Merry Christmas, ha ha!

comments and fav are greatly appreciated !!! ;-)

A fabulous foggy morning, a few weekends ago in Rundle Park in Edmonton, AB, Canada

I’ve wanted to make some changes to the Toa Vihagu for a while now. I made a few changes in November/December of last year, but the bulk of modifications came in a two week stint before school started. The current updates are motivated by my possible displaying at BrickFair North Carolina next year, and if I’m going to be displaying these MOCs I want them to be as good as possible.

 

Which isn’t to say that I’ve made them as good as possible now. I’ve made some good progress, definitely but there’s still changes I intend to make between now and BFNC

.

Zerkah, the leader of the Vihagu, seemed as good a character as any to introduce the types of changes I’ve made (as you can see here, Jetera has changed very little.) He is, of course, based off the version I made in 2016, but with a few modifications:

*His torso now includes a more stable internal structure, based on Chrin’s. His lower torso is further filled in.

*The shells on his arms have been swapped.

*He now uses Jetera’s thigh design.

*He has a brand new pair of shins.

*The sockets on his feet have been swapped, and his feet have been further filled in.

*He now has a signature weapon, a battle-axe (which I designed last year.)

 

I originally wanted to remove the Mata red shells on his thighs in favor of Metru red ones, like I did with the forearms, but the size 5 shells were too small for his physique. Furthermore, he ended up looking very dull without the Mata red to brighten things up. I feel like I made a good compromise with swapping out his forearm plates, however. The “iron boot” that has been part of his design since V1 is now gone. Its final fate has not yet been determined – I think the concept adds to his character but I have yet to make a good-looking physical version.

 

I intend to further develop the shins and fill in most of the pinholes. I’d also like to give him a new head structure (namely one that has eyes).

Leeds Pride weekend. Wow. After a far too long 3 year wait since the last one, we had been building up to this!

 

For me, Leeds Pride weekend is the highlight of the year. And this year it certainly didn't disappoint!

 

So to Sunday, the day of the parade. Wow, what an overwhelming, beautiful, wonderful day that was! Meeting up with lots of friends we hadn't seen in such a long time, and of course, the parade itself was incredible to experience. I high fived so many kids along the route, and it was so lovely seeing their faces light up as they high fived!

 

We met up again with our amazing friends who made us the 'You Matter' pine cone which has resonated down the years (see the picture of the pine cone in my album August 2018 for the story) and it's always a privilege to see them, and the lovely Sue too, a friend we made when she saw the story of the pine cone here on Flickr.

 

I was emotionally drained by the time the parade was over though, so I didn't go back out into Leeds on the evening. But what a day. I'll remember it for ever!

 

The Parade. Pictures really don't capture the atmosphere, but what an amazing parade it was!

Comment with pix will be deleted ..

he knew i had treats in my pocket. lol.

 

update on jasper: he still looks like he literally just hatched (hahahah) but i think he's getting better...? i really think he's just going through a huge molt. although i've still never seen one this bad.

 

literally a trillion more in comments!

Scription Chronodex Weekly Planner 2012 - free download with the cost of a prayer

 

(www.flickr.com/photos/moleskineart/6364230271/in/photostream)

Finally made up my mind to create my own diary for 2012 a week ago, here I go sharing with you all! But first please give me a little support, my Dad recovered from prostate cancer but at the same time developed Parkinson's disease a few years ago. In the past week he has deteriorated a lot, bed bound finally, no more speech, I'm the last person he can recognize. It is so tough for Mom as a care taker. All I ask for is your sincere prayers, as you download this creation, for my Dad and Mom, so that he can go peacefully proud of his sons, and she can start to explore this new world with us. What a courageous woman she is.

Thanks to my Dad's dedication to Chinese painting and art, I had my implicit training early in life and became a visual person yet unafraid to look deep into the subject matters. For years, I bought diaries but none of them satisfied my visual and creative needs.

 

(www.flickr.com/photos/moleskineart/6335595394/in/photostream)

 

Since the beginning of the diary making business, every single diary is made by representing time in fixed grids. To challenge this right representation, after exploring in deep thoughts the essence of my own perfect diary, I present to you my Chronodex idea.

 

Come to think of it, the paper which makes up a diary originated from trees, when the sheets of paper are bound together in the middle, it is almost like foliages stemming from a tree's trunk. Each page is like a branch, each opened page is a week, each day is like a beautiful flower grew from that page, consist of petals of your day's time slices.

 

You may argue that this format is still slicing time into blocks and far from the fractal nature, but soon as you start using it, you will find that time is no longer right, instead you will find fluidity through free notations.

 

The more important time slices can be drawn larger, activities can be dots or pies (petals if you will) depending on duration or importance, space on a page is no longer limited to grids. Basically you can roam freely and be amazed how beautiful your week can be.

 

What's more is that your mind gradually deviate from the rigid format a typical diary imposes on you, reactivity soon flourishes. Imagine the effect happening in weeks! And I'm not kidding.

Scription Chronodex Weekly Planner 2012 (Jan - Jun) Download

(just remember to pray for my Dad and Mom, sincerely)

It is done with the Midori Traveler's Notebook size in mind, even if you don't own a Traveler's Notebook, you can still use it without the leather cover.

To grow your own diary, after downloading the PDF version of your choice, print it out double sided (duplex) in landscape mode on A4 papers. Be sure to print it out 100% without scale, left/right binding (try the first few pages on your printer and settings and you'll see what I mean). Check the sequence after the print out.

Next, cut away the left and right portion of the A4 paper according to the cut line.

Now here's the interesting part of the binding. Use a chisel to punch holes on both ends of the spine and stitch the pages up. You can staple them together just the same. This method will get you a bound notebook but ready for a cool bookmark which I will mention in a moment.

(www.flickr.com/photos/moleskineart/6364216463/in/photostream)

 

To create a bookmark, simple take a piece of hard paper, cut it the way I showed above. Slide it between the papers of the current week, the slide 90 degree up following the spine to have the tab exposed on top of the diary (I hope I'm describing it right). There you go! a bookmark with a tab extruding from the top of your diary.

 

This cool bookmark invention based on the way you bind your diary is so useful and flexible, you will find it amazing when you reach the 12th week of the year! Tell me about that in a few months.

The last part of my Chronodex journey was to make a cool diary cover. Thanks for my family's tolerance, I had a little free time in broad daylight having fun doing it, 2 cups of coffee, listening to audiobook through my iPhone/Jambox combo.

Small features are infused into the diary, I hope you will enjoy the little tibits, do explore the "Boarding pass to success" idea. If you are interested, I will be sharing the July - December version, which is still in stage zero. Fellow Scription reader Boris from Russia already had a taste of the Chronodex, so go ahead and try yours. Your feedback and comment is what keeps me going, please do pray.
