Firefly, Metallo, Black Adam, Question, Nightwing, Cyborg
Hello all! I've updated some figs and made some new ones as you can see. First, Firefly. I really like how he turned out. He is kind of based off his appearance in "The Batman" tv show. Just with red as a main color. With Metallo I didn't want to make him all Robot so I tried to make him like the Superman Animated Series version. Black Adam is just the New 52 version. Question has a suit and trench coat. Nightwing has EG combat pants. Cyborg doesn't have the robo arm and his head is now the Nick Fury one. Hope you like 'em!
On another note, I now have Skype. If anyone wants my username just fm me and I will send it to you.
Thank you to legoman685 for telling me to make Firefly and Metallo.
A pleasant end-of-summer surprise was finding this Question Mark nectaring on the Heptacodium….along with a couple of Monarchs and Hummingbirds.
I questioned posting this photo of Liz senior portrait session. Its not the traditional senior portrait photo and its not going on the album but man this screams art.

There has been a long standing question between for photographers since the advent of digital technologies. Do you shoot Film or Digital and which do you prefer? Well to be honest in my case, both and neither. Film and digital both have their place and ultimately are tools for our creativity,...

Looks like a good place for a person to grow. (University of New Mexico library). We often talk of knowledge when referencing a library. But, for me, they are so much more than that; a place of self discovery; a place to wrestle with important questions of life; a place to reflect on my thoughts and choices. Read a book. Get to know yourself. Challenge your own preconceived notions.

She was a beauty--a gold 45 goddess for sure! A Gold 45 Goddess exalts the archetypal form of Athena--the Greek Goddess of wisdom, warfare, strategy, heroic endeavour, handicrafts and reason. A Gold 45 Goddess guards the beauty of dx4/dt=ic and embodies 45SURF's motto "Virtus, Honoris, et Actio Pro Veritas, Amor, et Bellus, (Strength, Honor, and Action for Truth, Love, and Beauty," and she stands ready to inspire and guide you along your epic, heroic journey into art and mythology. It is Athena who descends to call Telemachus to Adventure in the first book of Homer's Odyssey--to man up, find news of his true father Odysseus, and rid his home of the false suitors, and too, it is Athena who descends in the first book of Homer's Iliad, to calm the Rage of Achilles who is about to draw his sword so as to slay his commander who just seized Achilles' prize, thusly robbing Achilles of his Honor--the higher prize Achilles fought for. And now Athena descends once again, assuming the form of a Gold 45 Goddess, to inspire you along your epic journey of heroic endeavour.

All the best on your Epic Hero's Odyssey from Johnny Ranger McCoy!
Kairos; The Overseer. The deity of time. A being whose sole purpose is to make beings of other worlds interact. To create small pocket universes that house copied species and persons from other worlds into his own. He starts by creating a standard world filled with lush green environments, then gazing upon a lists of planets, star systems, universe, choosing what he deems to be the most interesting. If he finds a person of interest or a species, he copies that being from that exact moment to prevent altering timelines. He creates an exact copy, without the copy realizing it, and puts them on his planet. Dozens, hundreds, thousands, he keeps adding until the planet can no longer sustain itself or he gets bored with his progress. If the fate of the world becomes the latter, he descends down to a lower plain of existence to personally exterminate what he had created with is massive hammers. The hammers are used to create his worlds and are used for their destruction, as well.
His personality is a patient one. He takes his time searching through worlds to see what can make his own more interesting. Like a chef rummaging his cupboards for the right spice or ingredient. When the selected being is copied, they perceive the copy as an otherworldly event that knocks them out, to then be awaken in the new world, without question. Kairos chose those who would be friendly at first, then adds conflict to his world to watch it crumbles. His goal is to study interactions of other beings, and report back to his commander, Lady Void. Kairos is seen as more-or-less an outcast among his kind. He acts like a god for the powers he possesses and gives him an ego that is unfitting for his race. Due to his dimension-hopping, he is hard to pinpoint, making his actions under the radar and dangerous to Lady Void. The Migrator is currently in pursuit of this being, and will be put to death once found.

Boquillas Canyon, Big Bend National Park, Texas. View large on black
Horses are such amazing creatures. Here's the story. At Boquillas Canyon in Big Bend National Park, Mexican Nationals try and earn a living by selling souvenirs at three times less than they sell for in the BBNP shops. They sit across the Rio Grande while their souvenirs sit unattended at the overlook.
When a "customer" comes, this guy mounts his horse, crosses the Rio Grande and risks arrest by Border Patrol. The horse, knowing what is to come, stops to take a drink in mid-river and the "cowboy" grabs a branch off of one of the shrubs to use as a switch. Then the horse races up a near-vertical cliff side to reach the selling ground. Without question, this steed takes his rider to the top, not missing a beat.

Would, could, should: Three questions that sometimes should not be asked. Instead better for life to provide its own surprise.
This little leaf appeared on my lounge floor yesterday. I love it. Don't know from where it came. But now it resides on my not-so-complete Christmas card pile.

A vegades penso que és ben senzill expressar sensacions, però ràpidament m'adono que cal tenir-los, saber-los reconèixer i expressar-los tal i com a un li agraden.
He estat sempre un negat en les arts plàstiques, segurament perqué no tinc massa paciència, o bé perqué els meus professor no en tenien, de paciència, i no van molestar-se a ensenyar-me ... no sé. Allò evident és que sense la posibilitat de la fotografia seria ... bé, potser sóc, un negat en qüestions d'expressió, de mostrar allò que visc, allò que sento, allò que m'emociona.
Sempre m'ha costat mostrar i mostrar-me. He estat sempre molt tímit, sí, sí, tímit... però ara i gràcies a la fotogràfia em sento obert i capaç d'expressar coses, que tal vegada agradin o no, però que són meves i són com les sento i les visc. La manera de presentar-ho, de mostrar-ho, potser adecuada, correcte, interessant... o res d'això, però és també la meva manera, el meu llenguatge.
La plana de l'Empordà, immensa, un lloc important per a mi, Els Aiguamolls, i amb aquestes sitges per assecar arrós de temps passat, ara observador privilegiats de la immensitat de la planura. Al fons, els megestuosos Pirineus, ara amb una impressionant bellesa d'estar arribant a la primavera després d'un hivern intens ... Només cal que ara hi posseu el sentiment, la sensació l'emoció que sentiu en percebre-ho, en contemplar-ho des d'aquesta meva presentació.
Gràcies.-
Warner Bros. just responded to a list of questions sent in about the Barbie Corvette. We got answers from Nico Ferrari (great name!) who runs ‘Picture Vehicles,’ the company that worked on all the vehicles in the film. Who knew it was remote-controlled?
Autoweek: How did you choose the Corvette to be Barbie's car? Were any other cars considered? She has been associated with many different models over the years, from an Austin-Healey to a Ferrari.
Nico Ferrari: Truth is, a decision of this magnitude involves a huge element of product placement discussions with multiple manufacturers. Other vehicles were considered, but the relationship with Corvette was the most attractive from all angles.
AW: Does the car in the movie actually drive?
NF: Yes, but not by the driver inside! The car was driven remotely by an operator using a VR headset! This was felt the safest option to allow Margot to fully express herself in the vehicle without having to worry about controlling the vehicle.
AW: How did you build it? Is it on the frame rails of another car or is it all a unique platform?
NF: A lot of hard work from an amazing crew! Nothing on the car is ‘off the shelf.' Everything, including the chassis and the body had to be custom made. There are no components from an existing car on the Barbie car we built. It wasn't possible to use anything from a real world car as it would all be too big! The Barbie car is 23% smaller than the original Corvette, so the whole car had to be drawn, manufactured and installed to create the finished piece!
AW: What powers it? I assume it's a small electric motor? Is it front wheel-drive or rear wheel-drive?
NF: A small electric motor, similar to the type found in a golf buggy. Direct drive to a rear differential to power the rear wheels! Very simple, very easy! Some hidden 12volt batteries from a fork lift hidden under the rear passenger seat!
AW: Does Barbie - Margot - actually drive it, as in step on an accelerator pedal and steer, or is it on a rail of some sort?
NF: It cannot be operated from inside the car, the only way to move it is the VR remote system which was installed by the SFX (Special Effects) team. It doesn’t even have fake pedals inside, just a steering wheel!
AW: Is there only one or were there several cars for different scenes?
NF: In total, we made 5. Margot’s never changed and was a different shade of pink to two other cars which were a darker more vibrant pink. We also made a yellow and a blue. The blue car was the one we wrapped in Ken’s Kendom graphic with the flames.
AW: Is there a motor home in the movie? Does that drive?
NF: No motorhome, but two ambulances. One for when Ken has his accident on the beach and ‘Weird Barbie’ has an ambulance to use when she’s collecting the Barbie’s for reprogramming. These are based on the same system and technology as the Barbie cars!

View your artistic mission into photography as an epic odyssey of heroic poetry! Take it from Homer in Homer's Odyssey: "Tell me, O muse, of that ingenious hero who travelled far and wide after he had sacked the famous town of Troy. Many cities did he visit, and many were the nations with whose manners and customs he was acquainted; moreover he suffered much by sea while trying to save his own life and bring his men safely home; but do what he might he could not save his men, for they perished through their own sheer folly in eating the cattle of the Sun-god Hyperion; so the god prevented them from ever reaching home. Tell me, too, about all these things, O daughter of Jove, from whatsoever source you may know them. " --Samuel Butler Translation of Homer's Odyssey

When this installation was first on view, many have questioned what it was intended to mean. The words “Same but not equal” was painted in all caps on top of a collage of Thai newspaper “khaosod” on linen canvas. The panel was placed on top of two piles of Thai rice. Although the pile of rice appears the same, one pile of rice is ordinary rice and the other, apparently, is premium export-grade Thai jasmine rice.
To one art blog Blouin Art Info [1], it is a commentary about ABHK, where Art Basel Hong Kong, though featuring many of the same galleries seen Art Basel Switzerland and Art Basel Miami, is in many ways different than their counterparts given the type of art works being shown in comparison.
To me, it is a commentary on a larger issue where news media speak of the same kind of political news though their analysis and content is highly different.
Art is up to all kinds of interpretation. I have no idea if the artist created this piece specifically for ABHK, if so then perhaps that does have some validity. It is interesting nevertheless, though I would most certainly not pay 100-150k USD for it which is apparently the asking price for this work [2].

He spoke, and as upon the bed she lay,
Trembling amidst new thoughts, he sent a ray p. 374
Of finest love unto her inmost heart,
Till, murmuring low, she strove the night to part,
And like a bride who meets her love at last,
When the long days of yearning are o’erpast,
She reached to him her perfect arms unseen,
And said, "O Love, how wretched I have been!
What hast thou done?" And by her side he lay,
Till just before the dawning of the day.
There's no question that the great customizers in this community put out lots of awesome Lego Superheroes, but there are always those characters that no-one seems to have interest in making, despite their popularity. Now, of course, there are certain customizers who do produce these characters, but they are significantly below par when it comes to quality (not pad printed or high-quality digital). These are the top 9 DC Comics characters that I think all the brilliant customizers out there (you know who you are) should really consider making. I tried to limit my picks to characters that wouldn't require custom-molded pieces to produce.
Note that I also tried to avoid Batman characters as the official Lego market is already overflowed with Batman stuff.
1) Alan Scott: Next to Kyle Rayner, Scott is probably my favorite Green Lantern and he is in all likelihood the most unique. Mostly because his powers don't come from the same place as the other GL's. He's got the most unique costume and is the original Green Lantern. He really needs some love!
2) Hawk & Dove: Yeah, I kind of cheated with this one being two characters but you can't have one without the other! Hawk and Dove are easily the best duo in DC comics and, though their team composition has changed (Brothers, Sisters, Boy and Girl) this one - Hank and Dawn - is easily the most iconic.
3) Booster Gold: Booster is a very, very popular character and for good reason. He's a badass dude with a really cool power set and a long history in comics. He's been a fan favorite for years and I think this makes him a good choice to be made as a for-sale custom.
4) Captain Atom: Captain Atom is one of those characters that I hesitated putting on this list. Obviously, the best thing to do would be to sell a chrome minifig, but I think he would work in light blue-grey as well. Regardless, hes a very cool character with a very unique look.
5) Black Canary: So many Green Arrows out there, but so little Black Canary. That is, in all honesty, a tragedy. She really is one of the premiere women in the DCU and is in desperate need of a custom. Double sided head: one smirking, one screaming.
6) Deadshot: Classic Deadshot is one of the coolest and most iconic sharpshooters in all of comics, so it's really surprising how under-represented he is. I eagerly await someone to produce him so I can snatch him up.
7) Deadman: Going into the mystical realm of DC comics, Deadman is a really cool character with a great, unique look. The ghostly acrobat would make a great addition to anyone's custom collection.
8) Lobo: How has no-one made Lobo yet? Seriously! I know his hair is hard to pinpoint with the official line of Lego, but there are a few pieces that would work pretty well. Lobo is an incredible badass that is in desperate need of a custom.
9) The Spectre: I may be a bit biased in saying this but The Spectre is one of my favorite comic characters of all time, ever since I read the 90's run when I was a little kid. DC's spirit of vengeance is a force to be reckoned with and would be an easy-to-make and awesome custom minifig.
Here's nine honorable mentions:
- Amazo
- Raven
- Starfire
- Mr. Miracle
- Guy Gardner
- Ozymandias (Watchmen)
- The Question
- Power Girl
- Mirror Master
*Note that these are customs I'd like to see printed and sold, rather than personal customs.*
Happy belated New Year, everyone!
I wish it wasn't so sunny in this, but this day was super fun anyways, so it's okay. :)
I've decided to start a 52 week project! This image isn't part of it. Themes are posted for this one, so I'm going to try my best to stick to the theme, and the project itself. Going to shoot that tomorrow morning. :D
It feels good to upload something, even if it's just an 'okay' picture. I can't wait to execute a ton of concepts. I seriously have a book full.
Also, if you have two seconds, please vote for me (and Winry ;) ) in this contest! <3333 You will have my eternal gratitude if you vote for us. <33 (Give it just a second for the picture to load. It takes a second sometimes. o_O )
Omg, boooooo Flickr sharpening! :(
Formspring <---Ask/tell me anything. I love getting questions.
“Axe First, Questions Later!”
—Voodood's official catchphrase
Personality
Voodood was known as a highly decorated soldier of his people, commanding a well-known team of dangerous warriors. When not fighting evil, he is constantly searching for new and exotic bones to expand his collection. Voodood also insists that he has a heart of gold, despite knowing about the Orcs' bad reputation.
Biography
Voodood was a brave warrior among his people. During his rite of passage as a young orc, he entered the Cave of Trials to prove his worth. It was there he found much more than expected. Lured by a brilliant light, Voodood discovered the skeleton of an enormous dragon with an ornate axe buried where the heart would have been.
The village was astonished when he exited the cave holding the legendary Axe Reaver and wearing the dragon skull on his head. Voodood quickly became warrior leader and defended his homeland from many beasts and invaders... until he was the last of his tribe. Soon after, he joined the Skylanders.
History
The Ooga Warriors were one of the most revered tribes in all of Skylands, yet something haunted them - every night, wild dragons would circle their houses and any warrior not taking shelter would end up missing, presumably eaten.
However, the only weapon that could destroy these dragons was the legendary Axe Reaver, long lost for centuries and said to increase in power if its wielder had true inner magic. The Ooga Orcs once had a reputation for being the fiercest fighting force around. Any Orcs who fancied signing up had first to retrieve a pebble from deep within the trouser-wettingly terrifying Cave of Trials.
One such wannabe was Voodood. Down he went, into the dark dirty depths. Suddenly, a beam of light appeared ahead, Voodood stumbled forward into a chamber containing the skeleton of a dragon. In place of the dragon's heart lay a gleaming gem with an axe sticking out.
Voodood stepped from the cave with something far better than a pebble; he had the magical Axe Reaver, along with the skull of the slain dragon (which he would later adapt into an outlandish hat). The Ooga folk made Voodood their leader at once, and he became a great Orc hero.
But even the Ooga could not defeat the dreadful Darkness. The whole tribe marched to meet this new threat, but only Voodood returned alive. So, as you might have guessed, he joined the Skylanders.
Secret Agents Secrets
Voodood, Boomer, and Ghost Roaster were Buzz's elite team of Skylanders when they mysteriously disappeared while on a mission at Motleyville and hadn't returned for months.
SuperChargers Spitfire, Stormblade and Nightfall, were assigned to find the lost Skylanders at their last known location. Upon getting ambushed by Spell Punks lead by Spellslamzer, the SuperChargers were suddenly defeated and knocked unconscious by Voodood, Boomer and Ghost Roaster, who were now working for Spellslamzer.
With the three SuperChargers imprisoned, Spellslamzer announced his plan to raid the Mabu Radiance mines of its rare and powerful minerals, controlling the crystal supply to become the supreme power in all of Skylands.
As Stormblade wondered why Voodood, Ghost Roaster, and Boomer would turn their backs on Skylands and Master Eon, Ghost Roaster revealed that he and the other two Elites grew tired of being tossed aside and forgotten while the Skylanders such as the SuperChargers, SWAP Force and the Giants were more appreciated. Voodood later caught Spitfire, Stormblade and Nightfall when they attempted to escape, and Spellslamzer had the three SuperChargers strapped helplessly to the front of their own vehicles as the evil Spell Punk and his army rode out towards the Mabu mines.
During their attack on the Radiance Mines, Voodood and Boomer turned against Spellslamzer, revealing that all three Elites were pretending to be evil from the start. However, Ghost Roaster remained on Spellslamzer's side, holding onto the belief that he and the Elites would simply be tossed aside and forgotten even if they turned in Spellslamzer.
The remaining Elites and the freed SuperChargers would then engage Spellslamzer, his minions, and Ghost Roaster in battle. When it seemed that Ghost Roaster would destroy Stormblade, he instead threw his explosive ball and chain at the Radiance crystals under Spellslamzer, blowing them up and knocking Spellslamzer unconscious.
The Skylanders welcomed Ghost Roaster back to the side of good and the SuperChargers as full-fledged Skylanders.
Gameplay
Using his axe, Voodood can attack enemies using magical energy that channels through his weapon, he can even create magical tripwires with it. He can also use his axe as a grappling hook to latch onto his opponents, stunning them while he pulls himself towards their location to finish them off in close combat. In "Secret Agent Secrets" it was also shown that Voodood's axe can unleash magical blasts.
