I was asked how I did the curves on the Whitefang, so I made up this in LDD to explain. The two rightmost builds are different solution I tried to reinforce the links and keep the S shape. I ended up using the rightmost one, with 3 flex hoses. In the center technic holes I first placed a black string (part 16542) before putting the flex hose, so it stays firmly in place.

Here are instructions for bun hair. Lemme see if I can link to full size for downloading.... Shoot, I can't find the link on new flickr. Will see if I can figure it out in a bit.

 

Spin pins:

You are supposed to be able to use just these, without anymore bobby pins. But with all the spins and leaps Emma does, extra pins are needed. Plus she has a LOT of hair. You can also secure the bun with a hair net for added support (we do that for competitions) or if your bun has lots of "whispies" and "whomies" like layered hair will have.

        

Not really an instruction, but will help to understand how it works. Original image is quite large (1600x1600) but I think it is better to have everything at once than to browse through 16 little images.

This is from a how-to guide I wrote on making a blood sponge bag, an easily-hidden effect to make blood appear on demand.

This delightful model was designed by my partner, Ioana Stoian, and Roberto Gretter during the Polish origami convention earlier this year. It's a very simple model folded from an A4 sheet. You can follow the video instructions on Ioana's website!

I forgot... maybe not everyone know how to cut equilateral triangle, I prefer to do it this way from strip of paper, advantage is that you can go on with it as long as you have enough paper

 

Used the running pliers to break many of the score lines. And grozier/breaking plier combo for the rest. It's really easy to get lost so I'm careful to replace each piece in the figure as I finish working with it- made it easy to take the pictures too :)

This is how I made my quilting tool....! :-))

I used one of the broken pieces to "fill in the bits that were missing!

I've got these overhead lights in my house that are fairly new. I need to paint this room, including the ceiling and also replace the bulb.

 

But there's no hardware of any kind. No screws, tabs, nothing. I can't twist the glass lamp part nor can I get the metal surround to budge. I can't seem to push up with the glass. Basically, I can't see any way into this light and I can't get any part to even jiggle in any direction.

 

So I ask thee of Flickrstan, how on earth am I supposed to disassemble this?

The BristleBot is a vibrobot with an agenda.

 

It's built with a vibrating pager motor and the busines end of a toothbrush that has slanted bristles.

So this is the unedited version of yesterday's picture, featuring a bottle of lovely Tesco's brandy and a large breadknife from my kitchen.

 

The hair for the 366 was made up from about 5 different pictures of Captain Jack, with little bits snipped out and layered on top of each other. The beads in the hair are handy for covering up lazy blending (which is often the case when you need to get a picture done in an hour or two!). The cutlass was from a fancy dress site, and blurred to match the foreground blur, and the brandy label came from a vintage booze site. The hat and bandana were both put on separately, again to cover messiness at the top of the hair.

 

Finally it was taken into lightroom using the 300 preset, warmed up slightly, and had a cool filter layered on top of it. The last step was to add my favourite texture on overlay and erase it slightly around the main section of the picture.

almost every little chinese kid growing up in the 80s-90s will remember having these animals on their clothing ... or blankets ... thermos bottle ... playgrounds ... murals

This is how I shot my peppers in the glass shot.

 

The glass is from Pier One. It has an angled top and a crackle finish bottom.

 

I took the pic at about 4 in the afternoon so I had a little outside light, but most of my shots are taken when it's dark outside. Getting up and shooting first thing in the morning (cause it ain't a paying gig) ranks lower on the list than, oh, sleeping.

 

I always shoot tripod and this one is a manfrotto (stolen) borrowed from a co-worker. The lights are Lowel Ego lights that each use two- 27 watt 5500k fluorescent bulbs. I acquired (someone left it for a long time and I "borrowed" it) Shure mic stand. I simply slid the Lowel light onto the boom and adjusted it over the shot.

 

The white card up on the front right is foam board. One side is white and I spray adhered silver wrapping paper I had left over from Christmas. I bought a full board, cut it in half, and attached the wrapping paper. If I had some gold paper, I'd of used that on the other side of one of the boards.

 

The sweep and paper were included in a Lowel kit I found on Ebay. Both lights and the sweep were about $65 bucks. The seller had misspelled Lowel so it required creative searching to find it.

 

Behind the Lowel light on the mic stand are two cheap hardware store industrial light holders (about $4 USD each) and my spare 27 watt lights to light the background.

 

Shot with a Canon 1Ds Mark II with a Canon EF 24-105mm f/4 L IS USM Lens. I set an auto white balance and do almost no post processing in Photoshop. I run a custom edge mask workflow to minimize artifacting and keep my iStockphoto approval ratio above my abysmal 30%.

 

Hope that helps. And my camera goes with me every day so if you break into my house the best you can hope for is to meet my dog ;)

I thought also that I might update how I shoot and stitch my panoramas.

 

Here are the 8 images that I have to take to cover the whole sphere: one up (the zenith), one down (the nadir), and 6 portrait shots all around, each at 60°.

 

See the next step.

How I built it.

Nothing fancy, actually.

Final photo "The dragon attacks" (out of "A foolish battle") can be found in my stream / LEGO-album / A foolish battle-album.

 

And yes.. another setup with strings attached to everything I could find ;-)

I needed several hours before the final photo was processed. At first the little string-problem had to be solved. Then I needed a background - the first photos were shot in front of the wooden board you might have seen in some of my other photos. After processing I was not glad with the result. The composition was quite horrible.. so I started again, placed everything in front of the white wall, hung the dragon in a higher position etc until everything seemed to look well.

 

And after three replacing uploads within the first minutes I'm quite happy with the result.

Tutorial que achei na web.. e funciona! Adorei! Olhem isso:

Beijos!

Made them originally for a different project, but they looked good as a spring decoration in 1:6. I'll be doing a tutorial later today or tomorrow, so check back if you're interested.

This is my recollection of using a piece of film to pull out the film leader from inside a 35mm canister. I read this somewhere but I can't remember where. Please let me know if you do.

 

The arrow is pointing in the direction you're going to insert this into the canister. The hooks were cut into the sprockets to catch the sprockets of the film leader. This is just an illustration, you should cut more notches.

 

Once you have enough of this film puller in the canister turn the spindle counterclockwise (if you're looking at the canister with the spindle pointing towards you) until you feel the hooks catch. Slowly pull the film puller out. If things work it should drag out the film leader. You may have to try more than once.

 

I don't use this anymore since I just went out and bought a two dollar commercial film puller.

This section of a vintage Chinese graphics 'how-to' book, circa 1977, focuses on industry. Other sections highlight farming, transportation, telecommunications, space, etc. - "all the candy" Somewhat rare to see now.

Why check a bag, ever, when I can fit what I need for up to a month in a single rollaboard and second small bag?

The new year is upon us but it needn’t be filled with broken resolutions, especially if you’ve committed yourself to create a new photography website (or plan on refreshing one you already have). In this guide, I’ll be helping you to:
