Tool kit left in the wall of an abandoned office car park, strange as all the tools looked brand new, there was even a set of cutters still in their blister pack.
As soon as the sun came out today, so did the kits, all full of fun and play. Giving me a completely magical hour of entertainment.
Two sibling fox kits that live near our home. Caught these litter mates playing outside near their den after a rainy night. Mom had been with them, but left for a brief bit to do some hunting. The youngsters were hidiing behind the bushes, but the one on the right came forward to investigate when I made a squeek sound. It's timid brother/sister came out more slowly, and that is when I caught the first one giving out this sweet kiss on the cheek. Red fox (Vulpes vulpes)

Kit Kat is a chocolate-covered wafer bar confection created by Rowntree's of York, United Kingdom, and is now produced globally by Nestlé (which acquired Rowntree's in 1988), except in the United States, where it is made under license by the H. B. Reese Candy Company, a division of the Hershey Company.
The standard bars consist of two or four pieces composed of three layers of wafer, separated and covered by an outer layer of chocolate. Each finger can be snapped from the bar separately. There are many flavours of Kit Kat, including milk, white, and dark chocolate.
The original four-finger version of the bar was developed after a worker at Rowntree's York factory put a suggestion in the recommendation box for 'a chocolate bar that a man could take to work in his pack up' It was launched in September 1935 in the UK as Rowntree's Chocolate Crisp, and the later two-finger version was launched in 1936. It was renamed Kit Kat Chocolate Crisp in 1937, and just Kit Kat after World War II. Since 1957, the slogan for the Kit Kat in the UK and elsewhere has been "Have a break... have a Kit Kat". Since 1986 in the U.S., the jingle used in television advertisements has been "Gimme a break, gimme a break....break me off a piece of that Kit Kat bar!

Nothing you see here is real, even though the model, the conversion or the presented background story might be based on historical facts. BEWARE!
Some background:
The AH-1 Cobra was developed in the mid-1960s as an interim gunship for the U.S. Army for use during the Vietnam War. The Cobra shared the proven transmission, rotor system, and the T53 turboshaft engine of the UH-1 "Huey". By June 1967, the first AH-1G HueyCobras had been delivered. Bell built 1,116 AH-1Gs for the U.S. Army between 1967 and 1973, and the Cobras chalked up over a million operational hours in Vietnam.
The U.S. Marine Corps was very interested in the AH-1G Cobra, too, but it preferred a twin-engine version for improved safety in over-water operations, and also wanted a more potent turret-mounted weapon. At first, the Department of Defense had balked at providing the Marines with a twin-engine version of the Cobra, in the belief that commonality with Army AH-1Gs outweighed the advantages of a different engine fit. However, the Marines won out and awarded Bell a contract for 49 twin-engine AH-1J SeaCobras in May 1968. As an interim measure the U.S. Army passed on thirty-eight AH-1Gs to the Marines in 1969. The AH-1J also received a more powerful gun turret with a three-barrel 20 mm XM197 cannon based on the six-barrel M61 Vulcan cannon.
During the 1990s, the US forces gradually phased out its Cobra fleet. The withdrawn AH-1s were typically offered to other potential operators, usually NATO allies. Some were also given to the USDA's Forest Service for fire surveillance, and a handful AH-1s went into private hands, including the NASA. Among these airframes were some USMC AH-1Js, which had in part been mothballed in the Mojave Desert since their replacement through more powerful and modern AH-1 variants and the AH-64.
About twenty airframes were, after having been de-militarized, bought by the Kaman Corporation in 2003, in a bold move to quickly respond to more than 20 inquiries for the company’s K-1200 ‘K-Max’ crane synchropter since the type’s end of production in 2001 from firefighting, logging and industry transport requirements. While not such a dedicated medium lift helicopter as the K-1200, which had from the outset been optimized for external cargo load operations, the twin-engine AH-1J promised to be a very effective alternative and a powerful basis for a conversion into a crane helicopter.
The result of this conversion program was the Kaman K-1300, also known as the “K-Cobra” or “Crane Cobra”. While the basic airframe of the AH-1J was retained, extensive detail modifications were made. To reduce weight and compensate for the extensive hardware changes, the SeaCobra lost its armor, the chin turret, and the stub wings. Beyond that, many invisible changes were made; the internal structure between the engine mounts was beefed up with an additional cage structure and a cargo hook was installed under the fuselage in the helicopter’s center of lift.
To further optimize the K-Cobra’s performance, the dynamic components were modified and improved, too. While the engine remained the same, its oil cooler was enlarged and the original output limit to 1.500 shp was removed and the gearbox was strengthened to fully exploit the twin-engine’s available power of 1,800 shp (1,342 kW). The rotor system was also modified and optimized for the transport of underslung loads: the original UH-1 dual-blade rotors were replaced with new four-blade rotors. The new main rotor with rugged heavy-duty blades offered more lift at less rotor speed, and the blades’ lift sections were moved away from the hub so that downwash and turbulences directly under the helicopter’s CoG and man hook were reduced to keep the cargo load more stable. Due to the main rotor’s slightly bigger diameter the tail rotor was changed into a slightly smaller four-blade rotor, too. This new arrangement made the K-1300 more stable while hovering or during slow speed maneuvers and more responsive to steering input.
The Cobra’s crew of two was retained, but the cockpit was re-arranged and split into two compartments: the pilot retained the original rear position in the tandem cockpit under the original glazing, but the gunner’s station in front of him, together with the secondary dashboard, was omitted and replaced by a new, fully glazed cabin under the former gunner position. This cabin occupied the former gun station and its ammunition supply and contained a rearward-facing workstation for a second pilot with full controls. It was accessible via a separate door or a ladder from above, through a trap door in the former gunner’s station floor, where a simple foldable bench was available for a third person. This arrangement was chosen due to almost complete lack of oversight of the slung load from the normal cockpit position, despite a CCTV (closed circuit television) system with two cameras intended for observation of slung loads. The second pilot would control the helicopter during delicate load-handling maneuvers, while the primary pilot “above” would fly the helicopter during transfer flights, both sharing the workload.
To accommodate the cabin under the fuselage and improve ground handling, the AH-1J’s skids were replaced by a stalky, fixed four-wheel landing gear that considerably increased ground clearance (almost 7 feet), making the attachment of loads on the ground to the main ventral hook easier, as the K-1300 could be “rolled over” the cargo on the ground and did not have to hover above it to connect. However, an external ladder had to be added so that the pilot could reach his/her workstation almost 10 feet above the ground.
The bulky ventral cabin, the draggy landing gear and the new lift-optimized rotor system reduced the CraneCobra’s top speed by a third to just 124 mph (200 km/h), but the helicopter’s load-carrying capacity became 35% higher and the Cobra’s performance under “hot & high” conditions was markedly improved, too.
For transfer flights, a pair of external auxiliary tanks could be mounted to the lower fuselage flanks, which could also be replaced with cargo boxes of similar size and shape.
K-1300 buyers primarily came from the United States and Canada, but there were foreign operators, too. A major operator in Europe became Heliswiss, the oldest helicopter company in Switzerland. The company was founded as „Heliswiss Schweizerische Helikopter AG“, with headquarters in Berne-Belp on April 17, 1953, what also marked the beginning of commercial helicopter flying in Switzerland. During the following years Heliswiss expanded in Switzerland and formed a network with bases in Belp BE, Samedan GR, Domat Ems GR, Locarno TI, Erstfeld UR, Gampel VS, Gstaad BE and Gruyères FR. During the build-up of the rescue-company Schweizerische Rettungsflugwacht (REGA) as an independent network, Heliswiss carried out rescue missions on their behalf.
Heliswiss carried out operations all over the world, e. g. in Greenland, Suriname, North Africa and South America. The first helicopter was a Bell 47 G-1, registered as HB-XAG on September 23, 1953. From 1963 Heliswiss started to expand and began to operate with medium helicopters like the Agusta Bell 204B with a turbine power of 1050 HP and an external load of up to 1500 kg. From 1979 Heliswiss operated a Bell 214 (external load up to 2.8 t).
Since 1991 Heliswiss operated a Russian Kamov 32A12 (a civil crane version of the Ka-27 “Helix”), which was joined by two K-1300s in 2004. They were frequently used for construction of transmission towers for overhead power lines and pylons for railway catenary lines, for selective logging and also as fire bombers with underslung water bags, the latter managed by the German Helog company, operating out of Ainring and Küssnacht in Germany and Switzerland until 2008, when Helog changed its business focus into a helicopter flight training academy in Liberia with the support of Germany's Federal Ministry of Education and Research.
A second Kamov 32A12 joined the fleet in 2015, which replaced one of the K-1300s, and Heliswiss’ last K-1300 was retired in early 2022.

The kit and its assembly:
This is/was the second contribution to the late 2022 “Logistics” Group Build at whatifmodellers.com, a welcome occasion and motivation to tackle a what-if project that had been on my list for a long while. This crane helicopter conversion of a HueyCobra was inspired by the Mil Mi-10K helicopter – I had built a 1:100 VEB Plasticart kit MANY years ago and still remembered the helicopter’s unique ventral cabin under the nose with a rearward-facing second pilot. I always thought that the AH-1 might be a good crane helicopter, too, esp. the USMC’s twin-engine variant. And why not combine everything in a fictional model?
With this plan the basis became a Fujimi 1:72 AH-1J and lots of donor parts to modify the basic hull into “something else”. Things started with the removal of the chin turret and part of the lower front hull to make space for the ventral glass cabin. The openings for the stub wings were faired over and a different stabilizer (taken from a Revell EC 135, including the end plates) was implanted. The attachment points for the skids were filled and a styrene tube was inserted into the rotor mast opening to later hold the new four-blade rotor. Another styrene tube with bigger diameter was inserted into the lower fuselage as a display holder adapter for later flight scene pictures. Lead beads filled the nose section to make sure the CraneCobra would stand well on its new legs, with the nose down. The cockpit was basically taken OOB, just the front seat and the respective gunner dashboard was omitted.
One of the big challenges of this build followed next: the ventral cabin. Over the course of several months, I was not able to find a suitable donor, so I was forced to scratch the cabin from acrylic and styrene sheet. Size benchmark became the gunner’s seat from the Cobra kit, with one of the OOB pilots seated. Cabin width was less dictated through the fuselage, the rest of the cabin’s design became a rather simple, boxy thing – not pretty, but I think a real-life retrofitted cabin would not look much different? Some PSR was done to hide the edges of the rather thick all-clear walls and create a 3D frame - a delicate task. Attaching the completed thing with the second pilot and a dashboard under the roof to the Cobra’s lower hull and making it look more or less natural without major accidents was also a tricky and lengthy affair, because I ignored the Cobra’s narrowing nose above the former chin turret.
With the cabin defining the ground helicopter’s clearance, it was time for the next donors: the landing gear from an Airfix 1:72 Kamow Ka-25, which had to be modified further to achieve a proper stance. The long main struts were fixed to the hull, their supporting struts had to be scratched, in this case from steel wire. The front wheels were directly attached to the ventral cabin (which might contain in real life a rigid steel cage that not only protects the second crew member but could also take the front wheels’ loads?). Looks pretty stalky!
Under the hull, a massive hook and a fairing for the oil cooler were added. A PE brass ladder was mounted on the right side of the hull under the pilot’s cockpit, while a rear-view mirror was mounted for the ventral pilot on the left side.
The rotor system was created in parallel, I wanted “something different” from the UH-1 dual-blade rotors. The main rotor hub was taken from a Mistercraft 1:72 Westland Lynx (AFAIK a re-boxed ZTS Plastyk kit), which included the arms up to the blades. The hub was put onto a metal axis, with a spacer to make it sit well in the new styrene tube adapter inside of the hull, and some donor parts from the Revell EC 135. Deeper, tailored blades were glued to the Lynx hub, actually leftover parts from the aforementioned wrecked VEB Plasticart 1:100 Mi-10, even though their length had to be halved (what makes you aware how large a Mi-6/10 is compared with an AH-1!). The tail rotor was taken wholesale from the Lynx and stuck to the Cobra’s tail with a steel pin.
Painting and markings:
Another pushing factor for this build was the fact that I had a 1:72 Begemot aftermarket decal sheet for the Kamow Ka-27/32 in The Stash™, which features, among many military helicopters, (the) two civil Heliswiss machines – a perfect match!
Using the Swiss Helix’ as design benchmark I adapted their red-over-white paint scheme to the slender AH-1 and eventually ended up with a simple livery with a white belly (acrylic white from the rattle can, after extensive masking of the clear parts with Maskol/latex milk) and a red (Humbrol 19) upper section, with decorative counter-colored cheatlines along the medium waterline. A black anti-glare panel was added in front of the windscreen. The auxiliary tanks were painted white, too, but they were processed separately and mounted just before the final coat of varnish was applied. The PE ladder as well as the rotors were handled similarly.
The cockpit and rotor opening interior were painted in a very dark grey (tar black, Revell 06), while the interior of the air intakes was painted bright white (Revell 301). The rotor blades became light grey (Revell 75) with darker leading edges (Humbrol 140), dark grey (Humbrol 164) hubs and yellow tips.
For the “HELOG/Heliswiss” tagline the lower white section had to be raised to a medium position on the fuselage, so that they could be placed on the lower flanks under the cockpit. The white civil registration code could not be placed on the tail and ended up on the engine cowling, on red, but this does not look bad or wrong at all.
The cheatlines are also decals from the Ka-32 Begemot sheet, even though they had to be trimmed considerably to fit onto the Cobra’s fuselage – and unfortunately the turned out to be poorly printed and rather brittle, so that I had to improvise and correct the flaws with generic red and white decal lines from TL Modellbau. The white cross on the tail and most stencils came from the Begemot sheet, too. Black, engine soot-hiding areas on the Cobra’s tail were created with generic decal sheet material, too.
The rotor blades and the wheels received a black ink treatment to emphasize their details, but this was not done on the hull to avoid a dirty or worn look. After some final details like position lights the model was sealed with semi-matt acrylic varnish, while the rotors became matt.
A weird-looking what-if model, but somehow a crane-copter variant of the AH-1 looks quite natural – even more so in its attractive red-and-white civil livery. The stalky landing gear is odd, though, necessitated by the ventral cabin for the second pilot. I was skeptical, but scratching the latter was more successful than expected, and the cabin blend quite well into the AH-1 hull, despite its boxy shape.
"Pare para ouvir o coração.
Afaste-se do barulho e acolha com amor o ruído de suas inquietações.
Sintonize-se na freqüência dos batimentos da alma.
A alma é um ser vivo cuja linguagem é o silêncio
e a respiração é a paz...Você é a alma.
Nessa percepção tudo se aquieta, dentro e fora.
Nesse estado Deus consegue ouvir você.
A linguagem de Deus também é o silêncio.
E a respiração Dele é o Amor.
Silêncio é a senha para conectar com Deus...
Amor divino é a experiência.

If you've been to Kits Beach, you know these rocks. I know them well and have shot them from many an angle.
I got my Oleum BJD cat kit about a week back together with a 2 more kits to be painted as a commission. I ordered the 6cm Sphinx and the other kits were a 6cm Oriental and a 7cm Sphinx. Mine is the silver cocoa one with Classic Ocicat pattern.
The cat's are 3D printed and I painted them by layering dye made by diluting acrylic paint. I seeped the gradient base dye in forst and then added detail layer by layers and did a dry brushing with white to give them a more furry feel. I also glued on whiskers using hair from my own cat Neru who joined the gang in posing in couple of pics.
These cats are so adorable. If you are interested in one check my reference gallery for info about Evethecat.com

Got my Magic Mirror Keira in yesterday - after a long wait. Wasn't sure I'd be able to bond with her 'cause she refused the wig and eyes I'd set aside for her. Instead she decided to embrace her foxy-side and opted for a pair of orange EDs and a auburn wig... now she's my little thief :)

My portable camera kit, Canon T2i and lenses.
Hover over the image for details
Updated 06/30/2010
The photo was taken with another of my cameras which is a Canon 300D/Rebel and the old Rebel kit 18-55mm lens.
Someday I'll have L -series lenses. Oh yes I will...
This is most of my new Strobist set up.
I say most, I've probably forgot to include something...
I'll list where and why I got them, and for how much.
So frooom the top...
2x Lastolite Umbrella Tiltheads with Hotshoes - Warehouse Express - £16.99 each.
Its compact and light weight, but nice and sturdy. Its got a ratcheted tilt action, so its more secure, and has a thumbscrew for securing a brollie shaft.
The shoes strange. It has a metal edge, out of contact of the pins, but the middle is a sort of soft metallic covering.
Its triggered the flash a couple of times when putting it on, so some electrical tape is on the cards...
2x Lastolite Lumen8 Pneumatic Stands - Warehouse Express - £24.46 each.
As I'm just dabbling in the world of Strobism, I couldnt justify buying the Manfrotto Nano stands, as much as I'd like them.
I toyed with the idea of cheap Ebay ones, but in the end settled for these. Safer bet buying from a reputable brand.
Nice and sturdy, and not too heavy. Fold down to about 85cms. About 95-100cm with the flash stand ontop.
Air cushioned, so it doesn't go colapsing down and trappin' your fingers. Really well built.
2x Westcott 43" Convertible umbrellas. - Bought from a private seller, here on Flickr, although available from the States. - £32.50 each.
As endorsed by the Strobist, David Hobby himself.
These big arsed umbrellas lull you into a false sense of security.
They double fold, as in the umbrellas its self is hinged, and the shaft is in 2-3 pieces. Collapsed, they're only 15in long, and fit nicely in the side pocket of my carry case.
When opened, they're huuuuge!
I got the 'Convertible' ones. They're satin white, with a removable black back, so they can be used as reflective, with the cover on, or shoot throughs, with the cover off.
The shafts are a bit thin, but I've reinforced mine with cut down pencils. See here.
Over all, really pleased with them. Good light transmission when used reflectively, and lovely soft, even light when used as shoot through. Plus they fold up nice n small.
2x Nikon SB-28 Speedlights/Flashguns. - Bought second hand. One back when I started photography 3 years ago, the other a couple of weeks back - Expect to pay between £70-120.
I got one back when I started in photography, a few years back with an old Nikon F90x film camera.
I could have got another flash cheaper. But it would have meant learning to use another, and I still struggle with the SB-28 =D
Nice and powerful, GN of about 118 (ft), 36 (m). Reliable. And really user friendly, like most Nikon strobes.
The Cactus V4's.
2x Revievers. 1x Transmitter. - Direct from Gadget Infinity.Set = £25.91 aprox. Spare Reviever = £15.53 aprox.
After reading so many horror stories about the V2's, and then the first batch of V4's, I was apprehensive.
But after the second batch was released, good reviews started coming out, and people started raving about them.
For the price, I figured it was a safe gamble. They don't cost much. And if they do what people say, then they're definitely worth it.
I haven't had any problems with mine, at all, so far. And thats with alot of testing.
Theres not much to say really...
If you're wondering how mine are attached, see here.
1x 1 meter coiled Screwlock PC to Screwlock PC sync cord. - Flash Zebra - £11.06.
I got this for quick, off the cuff, off camera shooting.
Has the Nikon Screwlock fitting, so it attaches securly to the camera and flash.
Relaxed its about 1ft long. Stretched out it reaches about 1m.
2x custom LEE gel sets. - www.skategoat.com/ - £3.29 each.
Put these custom sets together myself. Wide range to choose from, and premade sets available too.
Mine have full, 1/2 & 1/4 CTO. full, 1/2 & 1/4 CTB. full, 1/2 & 1/4 window Green. Lee 103 Straw & Lee 790 Moroccan Pink.
2x Nikon AS-19 Flash Stands - Warehouse Express - £5.25 each.
For table top shooting.
They have a cold shoe that'll take any flash [except the SB-900], not just Nikons.
Thats it really...
Uniross 2500MAh rechargeable batteries and cases. - Batteries from World Of Batteries - Ebay Cases from RPT Batteries and chargers
I got the batteries at the same time as two Uniross X-Press 700 chargers, which each came with 4 of the same batteries.
I'm now rocking 16 in total. 4 in each of the flashes. 8 spare, 4 for each.
The cases I bought to keep track of what needed charging and what didn't.
Blue = ready to use. Red = needs charging.
See, I can be organised...
2 x Hama 1 meter coiled PC - PC sync cords. - Speed Graphic - £7.50 each.
A pair of male PC to male PC cords. Got these for when working close up with both flashes, incase the radio triggers don't like the close range.
1x Multipurpose Hotshoe Adapter - Flash Zebra - £6.95 aprox.
Got this for when I'm working close up and want to use both strobes.
This also works well when using my light tent.
This behind it, on a Cactus V4 reciver, this leading to both strobes via PC cables.
The Battery Case
4x Uniross AAA Hybrio batteries for the Cactus V4 recievers.
4 [was 5]x Duracell L1028/23A 12v Alkaline batteries - Cactus Transmitter.
2x button cell type batteries - Nikon ML-L3 IR remote, for my D70.
The Uniross AAA Hybrios are the only real interesting thing in there.
They come fully charged. Are rechargeable. And if not used, will hold their full charge for upto a year!
Perfect for the recievers.
Calumet Extra Large Tripod Bag - Calumet - £29.99.
To carry everything in, basically...
I probably could have got away with the shorter one. But I figured I'd go with this.
Plenty of space in there for the stands.
The side pocket it just over 15in long, so takes the Westcott umbrellas perfectly, and it has a little pocket inside that which I keep cables, the AS-19 stands, and other bits and pieces in.
And I think thats it really...
Anything else you wanna know.
Feel free to ask.
