Next step is to get markings on the tank. I am going for an all new process useing CAD to draw the markings and using my laser to cut out a mask which I can applied over the zimmerit. This is my first attempt. Right shape but numbers too tall....
Look for pavement markings like this one throughout Ocean City this summer. They remind us all to follow the rules of the road and BikeSmart!

Painted markings on Kim Il Sung Square show where participants in parades must stand. The square can apparently accommodate a rally of more than 100,000 people; there were barely 10 people there on the day we visited. The building in the distance is the Grand People's Study House.
This little spider, no more than 10mm long from pedipalps to spinnerets and with an enormous abdomen, has made its rather untidy, tangled silk home in the corner of my garage door. My big book of insects and spiders doesn't show one quite like this.
I happened upon the Beltane people beating their drums and dancing away on the Royal Mile in April promoting a midsummer event they were holding. It's a very primal sort of thing and the performers and audience seemed to enjoy it very much. I kept my editing to a minimum to try to reflect the raw nature of what was happening.
This is one of my favourite possessions. I used to use it mark out all of my joints in wood work before making a cut. It is another object that I found hidden in dust that had not been used for decades.

MiG-15 was the definitive Communist Bloc fighter aircraft in the Korean War, used by the USSR, Red China, and North Korea. The aircraft was license-produced by China and other Communist Bloc countries, and eventually led to other MiG fighter models. This particular example, acquired by a private US citizen in China in 1990, has the markings of the Communist Chinese Air Force.
Painting and markings:
The more creative part. During the early stages of the Afrikafeldzug a lot of German verhicles still bore their standard livery - tanks and trucks were painted in Panzergrau and aircraft arrived in RLM 71/70/65 or, newer types, in RLM 74/75/76. Anyway, everything more or less unsuited for the new theatre of operations.
Consequently, many aircraft received improvised camouflage in field workshops, using any paint at hand: mostly Italian colors. Therefore, a huge number of German aircraft received individual paint schemes with 'Giallo Mimetico' (of which several tones existed, ranging from pale yellow to earth brown) and/or 'Verde Mimetico'. The yellow was frequently applied over the original camouflage, so that the original paint would be visible. The dedicated desert camouflage tone RLM 80 (Olivgrün) was already a frequent sight, as well as RLM 78 for the undersides, but the German sand tone RLM79 turned up relatively late, towards the end of the North Africa campaign.
My night attacker Hs 123 was to carry a typical improvised scheme on the upper sides: the type's standard RLM 70/71 splinter scheme with a low waterline was to be roughly painted over, with light green splotches added, while the original colors would here and there shine through.
The paintwork was built up accordingly with enamels and brushes. For the upper sides I used Humbrol 91 (Black Green) and Modelmaster 2081 (Dark Green), for the Italian extra colors I used Humbrol 237 (Sand) and Modelmaster 2149 (RAL 6003).
On the undersides, the finish was to represent the former RLM 65, but overpainted with flat black but well worn. The leading edges and some areas (e. g. under national markings) were primed with light blue (Modelmaster 2078), and then a coat of flat black was added (Revell acrylics). After drying, the lower surfaces were carefully and directionally wet-sanded, so that the blue came through again.
The national markings on the fuselage were painted over with thinned black acrylic paint, so that they remained barely visible. The typical white fuselage band for operations in the Mediterranean was also painted over on the sides and from below, so that only the dorsal quarter remained visible. The squadron code (T6) is actually there, but in very small black letters. The control letter for the aircraft's group beyond the yellow code color (a 'P') was left away - not an uncommon practice. The aircraft's individual code (the yellow D) would be the only clearly visible fuselage marking.
The squadron's emblem on the cowling comes from a Peddinghaus aftermarket sheet, placed on a dark green basis, and the crosses on the upper wings were placed on dark green squares, as if the new camouflage had been painted around these older markings.

The Learjet Model 35 and Model 36 are a series of American multi-role business jets and military transport aircraft. When used by the United States Air Force they carry the designation C-21A.
The aircraft are powered by two Garrett TFE731-2 turbofan engines. Its cabin can be arranged for 6-8 passengers. The Model 36 has a shortened passenger area in the fuselage, in order to provide more space in the aft fuselage for fuel tanks. It is designed for longer-range mission capability.
The engines are mounted in nacelles on the sides of the aft fuselage. The wings are equipped with single-slotted flaps. The wingtip fuel tanks distinguish the design from other aircraft having similar functions.
Variants
35
The original Model 35 was powered by two TFE731-2-2A engines and was 13 inches longer than its predecessor, the Model 25. First flight of the prototype Model 35 was on 22 August, 1973, and the aircraft was FAA certified in July, 1974. It could carry up to eight passengers. There were 64 base-model 35s built.[2]
[edit] 35A
The Model 35A is an upgraded Model 35 with TFE731-2-2B engines and a range of 2,789 miles, with a fuel capacity of 931 US gallons (3,524 L) with refueling accomplished at ground level through each wingtip tank. It was introduced in 1976, replacing the 35. Over 600 35As were built, with a production line that ended with serial number 677, in 1993.[2]
[edit] C-21A
A C-21A Learjet attached to the North Dakota Air National Guard's (NDANG) 119th Fighter Wing.The C-21A is a military variant of the Learjet 35A, with room for eight passengers and 42 ft³ (1.26 m³) of cargo. In addition to its normal role, the aircraft is capable of transporting litters during medical evacuations.
Delivery of the C-21A fleet began in April 1984 and was completed in October 1985. Dyncorp International provides full contractor logistics support at seven worldwide locations.
There are 38 Air Force active duty aircraft, and 18 Air National Guard aircraft in the C-21A fleet. On 1 April 1997, all continental U.S.-based C-21As were realigned under Air Mobility Command, with the 375th Airlift Wing at Scott Air Force Base, Illinois, as the lead command. C-21As stationed outside the continental United States are assigned to the theater commanders.[4] snap

Painting and markings:
A slightly more tricky part - choosing a unit and a scheme were not easy, and I eventually ended up with a mash of styles for a machine of the IJN’s Tainan Air Group based on Formosa.
In 1943, most Japanese aircraft wore toned-down camouflage, the days of an overall light grey livery with flashy unit markings were over. However, I wanted to incorporate some old-school elements and eventually ended up with a basically all-grey aircraft (all-over Tamiya XF-12), onto which green makeshift camouflage (thinned acrylic Revell 363) had been added later in the field, applied around the original hinomaru and tactical markings.
Another unique design element, somewhat lent from the A6M, is a black engine cowling that elegantly merges with an anti glare panel in front of the windscreen. It gives the aircraft almost a racy look, and it underlines the He 112’s elegant lines, too, even with the bigger engine grafted onto it.
Being an aircraft of Japanese manufacture, the cockpit was painted in greenish yellow (“Bamboo”) and the landing gear wells, as well as the flaps’ interior, became Aodake Iro, a home-made mix of acrylic Revell 99 (Aluminum) and a teal clear window painting color. The effect is pretty good.
The markings were improvised and gathered from several sources. The hinomaru originally belong to an Airfix Ki-46, the blue stripes were manually cut from generic blue decal sheet (TL Modellbau); the tacticla code on the fin is of uncertain origin - very old, decals which ,unfortunately, partly desintegrated in the course of the build and had to be repainted manually.
The grey coat received a black ink wash and some panel shading; once the decals and the green camouflage had been applied, the surface was wet-sanded carefully, revealing again some of the grey basic paint and the risen surface details of the Heller kit.
Finally, some soot and exhaust stains were created with grinded graphite, and the kit finally sealed with matt acrylic varnish; the lower part of the black cowling received a sheen finish, though.
Even with its doors closed, the relatively small car, legally parked, hangs into the bike lane... This style of bike lane can give novice riders a false sense of security riding in one of the most dangerous parts of the street, the door zone of parked cars.
According to the National Cooperative Highway Research Program,
"For streets with on-street parking and where the parking lane width is between 7 and 9 ft and the bike lane width is between 4 and 6 ft, the effective bike lane will likely be less than the physical width of a typical adult bicyclist, and the majority of bicyclists will position themselves outside of the effective bike lane."
onlinepubs.trb.org/onlinepubs/nchrp/nchrp_rpt_766.pdf
No part of this bike lane is truly safe to ride in... It's a "comfort" facility, not a safety facility. That is, it's designed to make novice cyclists feel comfortable riding on the road, by pretending they have a designated safe place to ride, while actually encouraging very common injury accident types such as dooring.

I've spent the past few weeks in a mix of marking, firefighting, networking and enabling.
Earliest finish I've had in the week from work has been 22:30 this week and that's because I fell asleep at my computer mid sentence, with most of this week being marking until well into the wee hours.
Genuinely running out steam and starting to feel the effects of pushing so hard.
Could be time for a change soon I think, this is starting to be less and less fun and increasingly more and more frustrating.

The eunoto is a coming of age ceremony marking the transition from the 'warrior' age group to 'junior elder' status.
The ceremony is held approximately every seven years, and is in decline due to increasing Christianization and westernization of the Maasai.

Safety City is a traffic safety program for school children that uses a simulated New York City street to teach children about traffic safety through hands-on experience. Many of Safety City's programs are supported by the Safe Streets Fund, a 501 (c) 3 non-profit.
Safety City uses both traditional classroom education and hands-on practice in an outdoor realistic yet protected street and intersection. At Safety City's Indoor Learning Center, participating students from community schools take part in activities designed to build self-esteem and strengthen their ability to make safer choices. The classroom experience includes informational videos and up-to-date learning materials. Outdoors, students practice their safety skills on a fenced-in street and intersection. The area has realistic pavement markings, traffic and pedestrian signals and street signs. The children practice crossing the street safely in a variety of situations. Access Safety City on West 158th Street in Manhattan also serves older adults and people of all ages with special needs.
