Mi isla, 202
Painted PETG plastic, magnets and stainless steel standoff pins
Adding some offices to the loco shed at Old Oak Common
Centre insert - reference photo
On the left is the basic scratch-built structure made using:
Slaters embossed plastikard brickwork sheet with windows and door openings cut out - all mounted on foamboard cut to same
Roof - as above but mounted onto artists card
Lintels - cut plastikard sheet
Base is artists card
Gutters and drainpipes - Adapted from 'Lineside Accessories'
Roof overpipes cut from sprue
On the right the mostly finished article with:
Windows added using scored PETG with a wash of black acrylic paint
Doors - plastikard
Window cills - cut and shaped plastic
Gullies - cut plasticard
Corrugated roof to outer walkway yet to be added
Supports from brass rod
All painted with a wash of brown/black mix acrylic paint then black powder paint - dry-brushed on when base colour tacky
I've gone back a reprinted the 3D Newt, this time in a special hardened PETG to make it more heat resistant (temps are now up around 100F air temp here, the observatory platform is probably hotter than that). I re-designed the primary and secondary mirror holders within the telescope as well as got rid of the baffles, with a full scope length wrap (using two neck gators) to block any external light. It appears the weak point of the system is now the focuser, I'm contemplating redesigning the focuser to increase stability and hopefully reduce any tilt problems that could be from that.
We've had off and on clouds over the last several nights, but I managed to sneak in some imaging during a few clear windows last night. This is only an hour of data, 40 x 90s subs with the 533mm and 12nm H-alpha filter. Stars still aren't perfect, but I've mostly be working on getting the back focus distance from the coma corrector more dialed in and less time on getting perfect collimation. I think it's close, stars in the corners aren't as bad, one corner has some tilt, I can probably add another mm or two of backfocus to get it spot on and then really dial in the collimation. I decided to just stack these shots and do a quick edit to see how it would look.

Latest Old Oak creation is modelling the 'Elephant House'
Located next to the weighbridge and adjacent to the 'Factory'
The reference photo behind is almost all I've got to go on bar and end showing the window and entry door layout plus an aerial view taken in the 1940s for it's position
Other than that I have a layout plan but even those can be challenged as I've already found to my cost!
Still a bit to do but it's nearly there
Foam board scored for the planking.
Slaters embossed plastikard for the roof tiles Lineside Accessories for the gutters and downpipes.
Windows are scored PETG cut to size

"All we need is faith, love, and a little pixie dust."
Well it took more than a little pixie dust to make this custom figure for my daughter.
The figure is a stock Friends figure that has been painted. Tinker Bell is sporting a custom hair piece. The hair started with the s8 fairy hair and then was heavily modified adding ears and bangs. It was then molded and cast. Wings were made from PETG plastic. The pom poms on the feet were LEGO antenna balls. Want more info? Pick up the next issue of BrickJournal to get the step by step on "Customizing your "Friends."
Hope everyone enjoys.
Photo has been altered slightly. Wings are transparent, so these were inverted and glow was added for image above. Glow was also applied to Tink to get her to stand out on the flowers.

Mein neues Kamera-Projekt ist fast fertig. Das Groundglas muss ich noch schleifen. Als Basis dient die "https://thebergcamera.de/". Mit freundlicher Genehmigung schickte mir der Urheber die CAD Rohdaten zum modifizieren. So konnte ich die gesamte Mechanik überarbeiten. Es läuft nun über eingepresste Sintergleitlager und Trapezspindel. Das Magazin hab ich geringfügig verbessert. Am schlimmsten war die Balgenkonstruktion. Bei extremtextil in Berlin fand ich Nylon mit TPU Beschichtung. Gedruckt habe ich alles in PETG/Kohlefaser. Jetzt muß nur noch alles dicht sein.
Back to Old Oak Common again and this time it's modelling a representation of the Staff Canteen and Offices. A typical 1960's modern flat roofed concrete construction 'parachuted' in amongst the original 'steam era buildings and seemingly out of place with the outgoing steam locos that were still there with those 'new fangled' diesels
Struggling to find any reasonable photos, I finally discovered what I needed so this is the 3rd iteration which is a slight modification due to available layout space.
Materials:
Card, plasticard, PETG, wet and dry sand paper and foam board so far, this being the 'modern' half and yet to be mated to an earlier more typical period design on the other half.
Still to do are the stair tower, flat roof and vents, paint the sand paper grey to make it look like concrete, add bricksurface on the ends and undersides and inside, maybe a few dining tables and chairs, plus some Bangers and Mash dinners and a few mugs of tea :)
