They said their eyes

Are red as flame

I heard it told

From hell they came

Their breath is fire

Their tongues are forked

Thus are the beasts

Of Dragon's Gate.

 

I heard my father's words

Deep in my heart

"Son, know your enemy

As I know my son."

THE ANIMAL CRUSADE

 

One day all the sties and burrows opened

And out came the cave-bear the mammoth the seafaring

cormorant, that poetic diving bird, the white-headed vulture

the rock-goat from the mountains, the sea unicorn

You could see by their snouts that they meant business

You could hear by their flapping wings and their burr

They had thrown off their humility, cast down their yoke

once imposed by Adam’s secretive hero

the one with the garden

They were, to cut a long story short, fed up

And the morals of the shotgun had been cast off

the flayed skin of flight had faded

The viper walked tall and the swine wore polaroid glasses

that lent him pleasant looks. The beavers

gnawed down telegraph poles and so cut off any form of communication

Predictably enough, the lion led the way black black

as black gold and gold-coloured as deep black

It was a magnificent procession, blinding to the eye

At the back the unicorn reported as missing, the dodo the passenger pigeon

as well as various viruses and the elated spermatozoids

So the holy animals

travelled the holy world

 

And do you know how or why?

Oh no, they just went travelling, they didn’t have a flag!

Sometimes ripped up laws out of sheer happiness

or bled a city dry

Now and then trampled on a Jesus

or struck down a prophet or a princess

They were beginning to get tired

Haste no longer necessary

The one day’s deities left the fire

God gave us light

But somebody hit the breaker

Lost in the dark til I met my maker

Fighting for peace while I'm here on god's acres

Love thy neighbors

I don't even hate haters

They say don't be violent

In the face of my traitors

We can talk about it later

My savior came in flipping the tables

I'm a crusader

My heart is my anchor

The angels are crying and smearing their makeup

You dance with the devil, I march to their cadence

Feeding my kids with the fruits of my labor

I paid all my payments, I'm all out of patience

So save all your statements you say from your basement

I stand on the pavement and fight for my people against you dictators

After not building any tanks for like 6 months (technically more since the last one wasn’t even really a tank) I would say I did a decent job. Look for some more tanks in the coming weeks 👀

Still more...

I had a very enjoyable visit with my grandson to this amazing place, The Barker Comic and Cartoon Museum! From Vintage 1930s Mickey Mouse Toothpaste to a 1:1 Scale Replica of the Hulk, every toy you’ve ever played with (or dreamed of) is displayed amongst the 88,000+ antique toys and collectibles within the Barker Character, Comic, and Cartoon Museum. Official Museum for Celebriducks, California Raisins, and Gumby! I shot a bunch of shots, all with a cell phone (not like me, I know) and most were behind glass cabinets. What a trip with so many memories to enjoy! I hope you'll also enjoy seeing some of the shots I walked away with, and more will follow...no car shots today :))

I got the classic castle itch yesterday, I thought I'd practice. And see how far my bley brick extends to. Nothing fancy, just a big ol' tower. I left the interior blank in case I get some motivation to go back and put something in there.

Brustem, 8 September 1996.

 

A Crusader with Phantom wings?

 

The Belgian Air Force organized an amazing open day and airshow at training base Brustem in 1996. One of many highlights was this French Crusader of 12 Flotille from Landivisiau.

Having just escaped the flaming tombs located underneath the library in Venice, Indiana Jones and Elsa Schneider make their way to find Henry Jones, Sr. while being chased by Kazim and his fellow Grail Guardians.

 

I was somewhat hesitant to build this scene... it differs greatly from the actual scene in the movie, but hopefully it should appear to be kind of recognizable.

 

Special thanks to the Harry Potter builders for inspiring me.
