I continue to work on my "abandoned" Module/Layout and decided to add some graffiti. For that, I bought some Posca markers, which I had never tried before, and painted directly onto the pieces.
All these graffiti pieces are done by hand, without stencils or references. I'm not a graffiti artist (although I did try some things during my teenage years), but I've been following this type of art for many years and decided to try it myself.
Posca ink is water-based, doesn’t damage the pieces, and can be cleaned with paper and alcohol.
I don’t intend to paint trains—I’m not a fan of graffiti on circulating trains.
Modules and corridors can be built directly on the baseplate. Here's a ground floor module with two connecting corridors.
Finished assembling 24 modules, each from 9cm x 4.5cm rectangles. I am tempted to add more to complete the brown Hexagon on the left as well as the red one on the right. But I think I better stop here as there will not be an end to this tessellation.

I clear up a little bit at the moment. So I disassemble several models to have space for something new.
I think I haven't shown before this older model.

Here you can see the sections of the plane that get put together, in the background is my father in law, good onya dad!
The island project started with this two year old MOC. Still acceptable and will be used as it is with the 11 other modules I plan to build.

This is a 1:1 scale model on display at the European Space Operations centre in Darmstadt Germany of the European Space Agency's Schiaparelli spacecraft, a Mars entry, descent and landing demonstrator module that was developed in Europe and unfortunately was not entirely successful in its attempt to achieve a soft(ish) landing in Meridiani Planum on Mars on October 19, 2016.
Its sister craft, ESA's TGO (Trace Gas orbiter) was inserted into orbit around Mars and is operating nominally.
The TGO and Schiaparelli are part of the European/Russian ExoMars program.
Bremen, Germany. Orion's European Service Module is loaded on the Antonov airplane for transport to Kennedy Space Center.
For the first time, NASA will use a European-built system as a critical element to power an American spacecraft, extending the international cooperation of the International Space Station into deep space. The European Service Module is a unique collaboration across space agencies and industry including ESA’s prime contractor, Airbus, and 10 European countries. The completion of service module work in Europe and shipment to Kennedy signifies a major milestone toward NASA’s human deep space exploration missions to the Moon and beyond.

STROBIST:Just one bare TTL-flashgun YN-568 directed to the nearby corner, untethered via YN-622 RF modules. The flash is set on TTL, and I also used Flash Exposure Lock to get a spot metering on the dark chocolate coating.
That cake was baked and sent by my sister. We will try it now and I am sure , it is delicious!
I wish you nice easter days ...!

Btw.: I think, actually, this is the easiest and fastest way to shoot food. It's not perfect given the single lightsource, but it is easier to handle than on-camera flash bouncing and the light is more flexible. Food loves backlight and with this setup, it is so easy to shoot with sidelight or backlight ...And the TTL-Mode in combination with FEL gives perfect results without any adjustment. So if I use this trick, I just shoot in Jpeg, because I dont need any trimming later-on.
The last trick I used: White balance on shadow for a warmer and sunnier look.
I am re-posting this module which was created [discovered] in 1990. The main reason for re-posting this is that I found a more logical way to get that odd angle. The method is quite accurate but I do not think that it is Mathematically correct. The method is best illustrated by the photo diagram. Briefly, it shows the angles [in black] required for 4, 6, 8 modules assembly like stars, and coasters. Those angles radiate from the bottom left corner to the middle crease line. These angles can be easily generated by simple folds. Therefore, in order to get the angle required for a 5 piece assembly, logically, that angle should be in between 4 and 6. Can I logically assume that the bisector [circled and in red] the correct angle? Likewise, for a 7-piece assembly I take the bisector of 6 and 8 to be the correct angle. The interesting part here is that, that angle radiates from the corners to almost the middle of the opposite edge. I have assembled some 7 piece coasters quite accurately with this and will post them in due course. More details of this module was posted in 1993 - www.flickr.com/photos/61236172@N08/11003407114/in/datepos...
The LM was built by Grumman Aircraft and designed by aerospace engineer Thomas J. Kelly. It was comprised of an octagon-shaped descent stage with landing gear and an irregular-shaped ascent stage that contained the instrument panels and flight controls. The ascent and descent stages measured a combined 18 feet in height (22 feet with the antennas), 14 feet in width and 13.3 feet in depth. Early versions had three landing legs, large windows, seats, and a forward docking port. The three-leg configuration was light but unstable, therefore, a four-leg solution was chosen. The large windows, seats, and additional docking port were removed. Crew in the LM would stand and have smaller viewports for piloting. The removal of the docking port meant that the lunar orbit rendezvous was in the hands of the Command Module Pilot.
The shape and size of the LM was difficult to capture accurately at minifig scale. The limited size and variety of the Lego blocks available posed a challenge to accurately render the complex shapes of the LM.
After struggling with sub-standard tables at public shows resulting in warped baseplates, wavy track alignment, etc.; I decided I should build my own table modules. The design objectives were as follows:
1) self-contained table module with legs, wiring, etc. built-in
2) dimensionally aligned to integer multiples of 16-studs
3) mutually aligned with dowels and/or bolts in both end-end or end-side configurations
4) support optional drop-in modules between self-standing modules
The design you see here is the result. I have built 4x of these modules for my latest Lego model railway and I am quite satisfied with the result. They have proven to be very robust and provide a flat consistent surface for the baseplates. The disadvantage of this design is its weight. Its a compromise I was willing to accept in exchange for robustness. These modules have to survive the rigours of transport to/from public shows as well as within my own house!

Ever want to build a S.H.I.P? Never have the pieces? Thats me. Then I thought " well if moonabase can be assembled by multiple people, why couldn't a ship?
Module for transporting containers. It an expansion of the Rock Raiders Tunnel Transport 2.0 helicopter.
Six lunar test articles (LTAs) formed the backbone of Grumman's ground test program of the Apollo lunar module. Bethpage shipped LTA-2 to Huntsville for vibration testing to see if it could withstand launch pressures, and LTA-10 to Tulsa, to check its fit in the adapter. LTA-1 was a "house" spacecraft, used to iron out problems during fabrication, assembly, and checkout. Three more LTAs were under construction: LTA-8 for thermal-vacuum testing in Houston and LTAs 3 and 5 for combined structural shakings, vibrations, and engine firings.
LTA-1 resides at the Cradle of Aviation Museum, Long Island, NY.
this is the actual apollo module that took 3 astronauts to the moon(thomas stafford,eugene cernan,john young) in 1969..call-sign "charlie brown"..it was the only part to return to earth,bringing all 3 astronauts safely into the pacific..on the base,it shows burns from re-entry..
this is where i will be hanging the world's longest marblechute during the next 6 weeks for the grand opening of planet modulor on the 30th of september.
A look at my currently available MILS Modules. As you may have already seen, these make for a sizeable yet modest layout.
Led flash module. Inside the opening for the Mitutoyo 10X lens. The 12 power leds are not solderd but connected via 24 x M2 brass screws which press on the led contacts. I can even modify LED types with the same module.
The 12 LEDs are divided into 6 groups. Each time there are two LEDs connected together on the PCB. LEDs shine through the 12 holes of 8mm diameter each. Each group can be controlled separately. The direction and amount of light may be a result set.
The base plate is made of aluminum for cooling. The back of the LEDs have an additional thin special thermal film of 0.2mm in order to have good thermal conductivity. The LEDs can operate continuously at full power.

This is the type of vehicle used to land on the lunar surface by astronauts in the Apollo missions to the Moon. The one on display in the National Air and Space Museum is a real lander whose mission was canceled. The lower halves of six of these vehicles are still sitting on the lunar surface. The upper halves carried the astronauts back to their command module for return home. A lunar lander like this was seen in "Night at the Museum: Battle of the Smithsonian."
I wanted to build a ship/probe module that had the textures of current technology coupled with the shapes and lines of the sci-fi world not yet invented. All stickers are official (from the Discovery line.) All pictures at Brickshelf once moderated.

Here are my diagrams for the pentagon cross module.
The angle at step 7 has not exact 54 degrees, but this approximation with 53.96 degrees is quite good and relative easy and fast to fold.
Examples for this module are the Pentagon Cross Dodecahedron or coasters by Francis Ow.
Happy folding !
Hahahahaha, pathetic little piece of land.
But one of the 20 modules nonetheless.
Don't you dare to fave this one.
Name : Snowflake Module
Designer : Francis M. Y. Ow
Folder : Sam.Amalan
Parts : 6
Joint : Nothing (Assembly Little Tricky )

Today I saw this model it attracted me much to fold,But my paper is worst.
Francis Ow is one of the best modular designer in the world,and also one of my most Respectable person,He is so kind,but I never met him.
