Some of my girls have been waiting for today's prompt with a certain degree of impatience ... and as soon as they saw that the 'nail salon' was being set up, they grabbed their handbags and lined up.
There was much chatter about colour choices and whether to get their toe-nails done too.

Zingarina has stock orange nails
Pippa has stock bright red
Ruby gets a dark red manicure
Audrey gets bright red finger & toe nails
Violetta had lavender stock fingernails - they are now a little darker and today she had her toe nails done for the first time
Léontine got her first manicure in 2014 - today she is getting a magenta colour, which is bit brighter than she usually has.
A tube themed customised bike on dispay - the road legal bike was ridden to the display spot. The chasis being modified and lengthened with a regular tube frame theme, the bike looks minimal and radical as the riding position is lowered. It suit a person of short legs and long arm.

I have an earlier version of this (221) in white which has an opening bonnet and pop-up headlamps. The doors also open on that one, but the casting for this later version has been modified to make them less deep to accommodate added side exhausts.
The box for this one is incorrect, it is for the earlier version.

The Dodge Ram Van (also known as the Dodge B-series) is a range of full-size vans that were produced by Chrysler Corporation from the 1971 to 2003 model years. Replacing the Dodge A100, the Ram Van transitioned to a front-engine drivetrain configuration. Mostly offered as a cargo van and a passenger van, the model line was also initially offered as a cutaway van chassis.
The B-series van line was produced across 32 years of production, spanning three generations.
The second generation B Series was introduced in 1979 with the front portion of the body undergoing a redesign. The front fascia received a taller hood line and grille (styled in line with Dodge Ram pickup trucks), with parking lamps wrapping into the front fenders. Higher-trim Sportsman vans were fitted with four rectangular headlamps while lower-trim versions (and Tradesman cargo vans) were fitted with dual round headlamps. For 1981, the model line underwent a major rebranding. In line with its pickup truck counterpart (which became the Dodge Ram pickup), the Dodge Tradesman and Sportsman nameplates were retired in favour of Dodge Ram Van and Wagon; the B-series nomenclature remained, revised to B150, B250, and B350.

Shot 10.10.2021 at Bicester Scramble, Bicester, Oxon. Ref. 122-124
A Superb 1960 Morris Minor 2-Door Fully-Customised, Chopped-And-Cropped Hot Rod! – Registration “412 YMX”, Fitted With A 4.3-Litre, 4,275-CC, 262.4-Cubic Inch Rover V8 Engine, 3-Speed Automatic Transmission, Jaguar Rear Live Axle Differential, MGB Front Axle, Custom Chrome Grille, Full Custom 1930s “3-Window” -Style Coupe Roof, Custom Rear Light Bezels, Custom Leather-Padded Interior, Performance Gauges, Alloy Wheels, Nexen-Brand Sport Tires, Etc, Painted In “Kustom Candy Apple Red”…
Was Also Originally Supplied With A Custom-Built Matching Trailer, Also Built By The Same Owner/Builder, Using The Rear End From Another Morris Minor.
This Car Was Spotted Outside Mathewson’s Classic Car Auction House And Motor Museum, Thornton-Le-Dale, Ryedale, North Yorkshire, U.K., In March 2021.
Onside distanced view of a 1959 Buick Le Sabre 4-Door, 6-Passenger Sedan; Customised, model code [4419], one of 8,286 examples built. Age-related six-character registration “651 UXM”. Snapped outside Mathewson’s classic and vintage car auctions house, Thornton-Le-Dale.
Back in 2018 I snapped this brutal 1959 Buick Le Sabre 4-Door Customised Sedan outside the famous Mathewson’s auction house in Thornton-Le-Dale, Ryedale, North Yorkshire, U.K. (around the time the first season of the popular TV series was being filmed). This jet age-styled car was by far the most radical vehicle on auction that day.
This Bad-To-The-Bone Buick, registration “651 UXM” had been in the U.K. for quite a while, and had received some interesting custom work, including aftermarket alloy mags, removed door handles, missing some chrome trim, and its front bench seat was a replacement which might’ve come from a pickup truck. The car was painted in a shade of Kustom “Matte Black” respray, underneath a glossy “Glacier Green” roof. At the time the car was up for auction, it still had its original (possibly tuned) 6.0-Litre, 250-HP, 363.5-CID “Nailhead Wildcat” OHV V8, column-mounted 3-Spd helical M/T, and an (assuming) original 3.58:1 ratio live rear axle hypoid differential. The car required some mechanical attention, including new brakes. The chrome bumpers were quite badly pitted, too. However, the rest of the car seemed pretty solid and complete. This Buick was purchased by an enthusiast who has since undertaken some much-needed recommissioning work.
Read about how I customised this Pocket Eden as a travel journal on the blog here: www.cathryncook.co.uk/blog/2010/11/filofax-as-a-travel-jo...
The fabled Bedford JO was the smallest model of the TJ range.
New Zealand almost certainly had the bulk of the limited production run (1961-66), with many government department having considerable fleets of them. A fair number have survived but many have been either customised to varying degrees or exported to the UK, where they are favoured by nostalgic members of the travelling community. These vehicles are subjected to no-expense spared restorations and end up in better than new condition.
This particular example was seen roadside on the outskirts of Thames at the base of the Coromandel Peninsular. In common with just about all of the customised examles to be seen here in NZ, it has been re-powered with a V8 engine mated to an automatic gearbox. The wider pattern wheels and tyres do not look too out of place and no "chop-job" has been done to the cab! The steel-channel bumper, "Roo Bar" and sun visor are normal Antipodean accessories for a JO and make for a not unpleasant blending of originality and tasteful customisation.
Heavily customised might be a better description.
MSJ187 essentially dates from 1947.
It now has a V8 3528cc Petrol engine.
Seen at Worthing (Sussex) show 2019.
Customised pump detail, a Zéfal HPX that used to be black.
All the black coating and plastic can be removed as long as you leave a little bit of the end cap, that silly "lock switch" I never use. Hope this answers your questions Gerhard.

My sons converse ... They didn't have exactly what he wanted in the shop so he went on to the Converse website and designed his own!
October Challenge Day 13
A commissioned custom of the enjoyable to customise Bossy Bear by David Horvath.
I have a lot of info on this little one that will have to remain under lock, key and high security beams but I will say she's built a very nice little word on her bonce to nurture that little guy up there.
This is my last physical commission of the year but thanks to anyone who's kept me ticking along with any purchases, commissions or very kind emails.
Sadly I have no commission time available until around late February but any emails or flickr messages are still kind and very welcome :)

CUSTOMISED INSTRUCTIONS PENDING
Please DM if interested in a customised set of instructions in 1:15 (Creator Expert / Icons) scale.
No doubt those in Lego and Ford Bronco circles would have seen the AI-generated model posted as a reel on instagram by @blueridgeaccessories. A great looking model for sure, among a bunch of other AI-generated models.
As a designer of Lego Broncos myself, I took a long, hard look at what the computer created, and wondered if it could indeed be translated into a real build.
Took some doing, but I present here the Gen ! in 1:15 scale. I plan to create instructions - customisable, as with my other Bronco projects, in the near future. Please DM if interested. Or contact me on Instagram @buildmybrickbronco
At this point I would also like to recognise the Lego model builders whose work was likely used to train the AI:
