Professor Aldous Greel, chair of Unnatural Histories at the Somewhereville Institute of Anomalous Inquiry has been studying the effects of the raven feather for two decades. Greel’s theory is that the raven’s feather acts as a “truth lodestone” — not simply revealing truth in the moment, but magnetizing the recipient’s entire perception for the rest of their life. He has documented patterns of wandering, sleeplessness, and “pull phenomena” (the inexplicable draw to places like Everstill Antique Shop). Many Somewhereville residents whisper that Greel has his own feather hidden away — a claim he has never confirmed, nor denied. However, as we shall see, it was Greel's scholarly paper about the effects of the raven feather that caused a great calamity in Somewhereville, especially amongst the feather recipients.

A MOC started in 2023, which just couldn't get finished properly. There was always something missing or something wrong. Two recent additions however completed it: exchanging sickly tan to more natural light nougat, and adding those huge hands to balance the character visually.
That said he's finally done and can go do his professional if slightly evil shenanigans, while I can continue making new stuff.
Tell me what you think!
Professor Mmaa’s lecture is a novel by Polish-English writer Stefan Themerson in which termites try to understand the human society which is so different from theirs. But is it? Many aspects of termites’ lives are disturbingly similar to ours. Themerson translated his book from Polish into English by himself.

Well this build is definitely a step-up from the first one. :P
This is my second build featuring the sadistic Batman villain; Professor Pyg, although the second one was removed because it is just shit compared to this. I spent a lot more time on this and made sure that it was everything that I wanted.
To start the Pyg figure is almost entirely new, I gave him a new drill (given to me from TheMooseFigs), an brand new body/head, and an apron that I made out of regular paper and pipe insulator. :P The blood on the apron was painted by me and was inspired by the one billbobful made forever ago.
Now the build itself is probably the best thing I've made which is kind of sad but I'm definitely gonna work on putting more builds out. Soon I'll be making a Bricklink order so that will make a big difference. Anyways, the room I made is supposed to be a meat locker but sort of strayed away from being that. On the left you can see three crates, one of which is spilling limbs. There is also piping that goes around the upper part of the build that has a chain and two hunks of meat hanging from it which I think turned out really nice. Then finally there is angry-ass Batman being strapped to a table by a rubber band with a chainsaw on his chest.

This is a shot from my photo tour of the greater Moab area last week. This photo was taken in the Professor Valley - which is an area very similar to Monument Valley - but without the crowds.
Many of the birds in the rookery at Gatorland, like the Great Egrets, Great Blue Herons, Tri-coloured Herons, Wood Storks etc, are generally quite quiet, but the Snowy Egrets are definitely not. Most of their sounds make people giggle ... it's almost impossible not to. They gargle, gurgle, spit and often sound hilarious, but they're feisty and argumentative with each other. This one was mid display when I took this shot. Even their displays are pretty manic. I have to admit I found them extremely entertaining. :)
This short clip on YouTube gives a slight idea of what they sound like, although it's much more restrained than they usually are: www.youtube.com/watch?v=PJZ12Q4fcpw
Well-known criminal authority from one of the planets of Zeta Reticuli. Belongs to the race of ζ-tervians (men of this race, reaching the age of 50-60 terrestrial years, suffer from severe growth of the brain's frontal lobes, which is accompanied by deformation of the cranium and severe pain; aforemented phenomenon results in death if not taken under the doctors' control).
Became famous for his abnormal level of intellectual capacity, which he uses to organize complex criminal schemes. Has a predilection for validolum.
Several times he escaped from prison; currently the Professor is accused of a number of crimes, including stealing of innovative engines directly from shipyards, assassination of a prominent corrupt politician, experiments on intelligent living beings. The total term of imprisonment for these crimes is about 305 terrestrial years.
The law prohibits the use of the death penalty in the case of elderly aliens, including ζ-tervians, so the Professor is likely to live to the end of his imprisonment.
At the moment current location of the Professor is unknown.
Contact the authorities if you see him.

Most people would swear this was taken in Monument Valley .... but they'd be wrong. This is at mile marker 18 on Route 128 east out of Moab, Utah. This area is known by two names. Castle Valley and Professor Valley. And these soaring monoliths certainly did look like Castles.
We traveled to Monument Valley later in the week ... and I found that I preferred Professor Valley significantly over its more well known cousin to the south. Less people, less evidence of civilization.....and more of that true "feel" of the old west.
M.F.A. Professor.

The Siegestor in Munich is a three-arched triumphal arch crowned with a statue of Bavaria with a lion-quadriga.
The Siegestor is 21 meters high, 24 m wide, and 12 m deep. It is located between the Ludwig Maximilian University and the Ohmstraße, where the Ludwigstraße ends and the Leopoldstraße begins. It thus sits at the boundary between the two Munich districts of Maxvorstadt and Schwabing.
The gate was commissioned by King Ludwig I of Bavaria,[designed by Friedrich von Gärtner and completed by Eduard Mezger in 1852. The marble quadriga was sculpted by Johann Martin von Wagner, artistic advisor to Ludwig and a professor at the University of Würzburg. Lions were likely used in the quadriga, instead of the more usual horses, because the lion was a heraldic charge of the House of Wittelsbach, the ruling family of the Bavarian monarchy.
The gate was originally dedicated to the glory of the Bavarian army. Today, the Siegestor is a monument and reminder to peace. After sustaining heavy damage in World War II it was to be demolished in July 1945, however, the gate was reconstructed and restored only partially, in a manner similar to the conservation of the Kaiser-Wilhelm-Gedächtniskirche in Berlin. The new inscription on the back side by Wilhelm Hausenstein reads Dem Sieg geweiht, vom Krieg zerstört, zum Frieden mahnend, "Dedicated to victory, destroyed by war, urging peace". In the early 21st century, the remaining statues were meticulously cleaned and restored.
Professor Seraphine Draven, the enigmatic teacher of Mythical Biologies at Nevermore Academy, is as feared as she is respected. A regal and commanding presence, she is a werewolf of ancient bloodlines, her transformations said to be more controlled—and more dangerous—than any of her kind. Whispers echo through the shadowed halls that she is not merely a powerful lycanthrope, but one of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse—War incarnate. Though she never confirms the rumors, the glint in her eyes when discussing ancient battles and arcane warfare leaves students wondering just how much history she has personally witnessed… and survived.

A Former Friend.
Hunter Zolomon - Two boys as thick as thieves, Hunter Zolomon and Wally West spent most of their adolescent and adult life together. Everyone around them knew they were closer than brothers from the moment they met, sharing everything from toys to their very first jobs. They were both two of the nicest boys while simultaneously being the biggest troublemakers those around them had ever known. Every day one could find the pair together, that was until Wally moved to Central City to live with his aunt Iris and her boyfriend Barry, thus leaving Hunter by himself in Keystone City. While the pair were only separated by the Gem Cities Bridge, the two quickly became distant from each other. Their weekly car trip across the state line to visit one another swiftly drifted into a once in a while text message or phone call. Eventually the messages mostly stopped as Wally moved to New York for what he claimed would be a great learning opportunity at a prep school.
Hunter was left alone in Keystone for years, and because of his tight bond with Wally coupled with not really knowing many more friends than him, Hunter had a hard time finding any luck socializing with the other kids in his school. Eventually, Hunter dropped out of his school and opted to finish his high school years online, furthering his isolation from any form of friendship. After Zolomon graduated from high school he spent a few years in a community college but his real goal was to become a cop when he became of age. So once he turned twenty-one Hunter enrolled in to a police academy so as to fulfill his goal.
A few years had passed and Hunter had become an esteemed police officer, even being considered a promotion to detective after he cracked a case that had stumped many of his fellow officers. All while this was happening, Wally had finished college and was travelling the world with the Titans, though Hunter only knew that he was with some “friends.” Eventually, Wally made his way back to the Gem Cities to stop by and visit his Aunt and her now Husband. While there Wally made his way across the bridge to once again meet up with Hunter. The pair hung out at Zolomon’s house and reminisced about old times as well as caught up on things that had transpired since the last time they had seen each other. Wally went on and on about his travels across the country and abroad all while Hunter really only had stories of cases he had worked on and nothing more.
Almost a year passed and Wally had since moved back home to Keystone City where he began work as a mechanic for Zolomon’s precinct. All felt right again as the pair again began to spend most of their free time together. That was until one day Zolomon was called to a case that got very violent. Caught in a shootout, Hunter had nowhere to go so he had no other option but to call for back up. Unfortunately the back up showed up to late and Hunter was caught in the cross fire of two rival gangs. A stray shot struck Hunter in the back and instantly paralyzed him. The loud gunfire caught the attention of Wally who was patrolling the city as the Flash. Quickly, Wally made it to the scene and disarmed all of the gang members, even going as far as finding some chain to tie up all of the thugs. With a painful groan, Hunter yelled for the Flash to come to his aid. Wally swiftly ran to Hunter’s side and quickly unmasked in an attempt to calm Hunter. In the blink of an eye, Wally got Hunter to the hospital before any further damage happened and the doctors were able to stabilize Zolomon. However, due to the point at which the bullet entered Zolomon’s back he was now left paralyzed from the waste down.
After Hunter was discharged from the hospital he and Wally met up so Hunter could thank his friend for saving him that day. Wally assured Hunter that he would do anything to help Hunter and that he would be by his side whenever he was needed. Hunter again thanked Wally and the pair began discussing Wally’s secret life and all things superpower related. Eventually the conversation got the point that Wally mentioned that at one point he travelled back in time thanks to a “cosmic treadmill” that Star Labs had let him use. With this information, Hunter asked Wally if there was a way that he could use the treadmill to go back in time and stop what had happened. Wally quickly shot down the idea because he said that it would tamper with the timeline and only cause more issues to arise if he did so. Hunter begrudgingly agreed, though he began to think that if he could somehow gain access to this treadmill that maybe he could reverse the events that had transpired.
So with this hopeful idea, Hunter secretly made his way to Star Labs in Central City. There he broke in to the facility and found what could only be described as a glorified treadmill. With what little mobility he had left in his lower body, Hunter made his way onto the treadmill after finding the power source and flicking it on. Hunter braced himself on a bar and waited for the treadmill to begin moving. With a loud roar and a fury of blinking lights, the treadmill began to slowly move. Zolomon began to stumble along the moving ground beneath him as the machine began to hiss and stutter. A loud crack sounded behind Zolomon and a flash of electricity jolted his legs causing him to fall face first on the ever accelerating platform on which he stood. As Hunter crashed off the back of the treadmill he noticed a small puff of smoke coming from the treadmill’s power source. The small puff quickly became a large billowing stack of smoke as a large blast of flames came bursting forth out of an electrical panel. Hopeless once more, Hunter laid there as the machine roared ever louder and sputter flames onto the ground before him. Hunter closed his eyes as he knew the machine was about to explode before him, though to his surprise, with the sound of a loud pop he found himself falling through a realm of electricity. In shock, Hunter faded into unconsciousness and landed back into the reality he found familiar.
After coming to, Hunter found himself in a hospital room, a surrounding he had unfortunately grown accustomed to. Though this time he felt different, he could feel his legs and every muscle in them. For the first time in almost a year Hunter could move his legs, so he did what anyone would do in his position, he got up and began walking. Much to his surprise, however, as he began walking he was moving much quicker than he could really comprehend. In a second he found himself outside the hospital and in the middle of the street outside. Somehow he could set his sights on a place and in the blink of an eye his legs could carry him there with little to no effort. Remembering what had happened to him and why it did, Hunter became filled with rage towards Wally. He knew that Wally could have stopped what had happened to him because of the very fact that he now had the ability to move his legs again.
Filled with rage, Hunter raced to Wally’s house, there he found Wally’s girlfriend, Linda. Without thinking much, Hunter took a hold of Linda and raced her out to the exact spot where he had gotten shot. Angrily, Hunter grabbed Linda’s phone from her jacket pocket and dialed Wally. Hunter told him exactly where he was and what he would do if Wally didn’t show up to talk to him. Zolomon figured that Wally wasn’t willing to risk his life to help him get his legs back, so he was going to pay for it by losing his girlfriend. One thing kept racing through Zolomon’s mind and that was that Wally had never truly cared for him. To Hunter, that’s why Wally left him alone all those years ago. In Hunter’s mind, Wally was the reason every bad thing had happened to him, so in return Hunter himself would be the reason every bad thing moving forward would happen to Wally. Along with the powers of the Speed Force, Anger, rage, jealousy, and heartbreak are the only things that seem to course through the veins of Hunter Zolomon.

If you squint, it looks quite disturbing. This kind of disturbing.
