WARRIOR OF THE LAND
If you insist that your home
is not here with us then find
the right place to pitch your tent
and dwell with your people.
Permission is given to the one
whose ear is willing to contain
and hold the truth to stand tall
and get the crown for himself,
for many warriors are willing
to die for it.
Go for it the warrior of the land,
the man of war and the right hand
of the king.
Your strength is of the spirit,
mightier than the lion,
they speak of your strength,
your people salute you.
Stand out of the crowd,
you who are called to partake
in the regimen of the chivalry knights
of the chosen ones.
Find your place in the scheme of things
prepared for only those who walk in the
part of the divine light burning within them.
You truly belong to the chivalry knight of
the brave for you have shown yourself
worthy of such a high calling.
May you be blessed and protected.

On Independence Day 2018, the peaceful sunrise in western Pennsylvania is broken by the sound of an old school EMD SD70 bringing NS 205 west for Chicago. This has always been a favorite of mine, one of my rare moments where everything lines up at just the right time. Since this was taken, NS 2575 is no longer on their roster after being sold to Progress Rail in February of 2020.
A dying spartan lays in the tender care of an unknown. The tenderness and care that is given to him helps makes his passing from one world into another. So stranger who is passing by, go tell the spartans that here we lie, obedient to the law.
Atlanta(GA) FD Engine 7 is a 1992 Spartan/Quality pumper equipped with a 1500 gpm pump and 500 gallon tank. It is diesel-powered with an automatic transmission. It has a serial number of M-745 and shop number of 0018164. Photo taken on 30 July 1994 at Atlanta's annual muster.

Autorack train 15J curves through the village of Cove with a single SD70 pulling empty cars from New Jersey back west to the automotive heartland. Over two dozen SD70's have ended up in the "dead" lines in Roanoke, VA; stored after the recent downturn in traffic. With SD60's all but gone from the Norfolk Southern roster, a Spartan cab is becoming an uncommon sight.
I haven't seen this done before, figured I'd give it a try. Didn't have enough shields unfortunately (there's around 50 in there).
A spartan cab SD70 leads P16 south as it eases onto the single track at Cagle on the Piedmont Division. This train runs the Commerce Branch to Lula, just north of this location, where the line joins the Piedmont Division. It then terminates at Gainesville, the "Chicken Capital of the World", works the yard, then returns north to Commerce as P15.
Well, I'll go ahead and say I loved doing this. Halo used to be one of my favorite franchises, and making a Spartan using this sculpt made my day. I got it from Josiah,aka Brickzalive, I belive Pecovam made it. First off huge thanks to Billy, KJ, and Josiah. They all helped me with making this at BFAL. I painted the Fig using Apple Barrel and Citadel paints. The shotgun is a painted BA. KJ taught me many good ways to weather weapons, so a huge thanks to him.
Outnumbered but never outfought, the Spartans perfected the Phalanx so much so that when a unit gets disengaged from the main formation, they automatically encircle and fight all comers covering each others back.
The ATB combo Spartan and Spartan II arrived to S. Chicago with a load of Calcium Chlordie to be discharged at terminals on Lake Calumet.

My favorite Spartan as of yet, also featuring my favorite helmet!
This spartan (attempted female with thinned belt.. Plus, the hand plate design is female) is wearing Gungnir helmet with HU/RS, Default chest, UA/Base Security right shoulder, Mark V left shoulder, Tactical/UGPS wrist, FJ/PARA knees, gold visor.
The helmet AND CHEST PLATE are custom sculpts.
..Consider this the start of next-gen Halo Reach Spartans by yours truly.
Most likely on their way out with the latest arrivals from Fort Worth, some former Oakway SD60's lead CN train L51591 strolls through the neighborhoods of Griffith, IN on the way to Markham Yard.
A few years ago I got this picture of a beautiful Spartan Plane landing at the Half Moon Bay Airport.
Day 1: Spartans
Well, I decided to do a 10 day challenge-thingy. Basically, my idea was to remake some of my more popular figs, like the two Spartans I made. And, some new ideas i was thinking of. Enjoy. :D
The Spartan. A great warrior of Ancient times. Originating, in Greece. Being brought back to the fight, 2012. A new war arrives, an old soldier made anew.
BTW, some of this stuff will/may not make much sense… Enjoy. >:D
This is a promotional photo of myself.
I used it on my business cards.
Can you figure out the lighting techniques?
Another photograph of the CQB Spartan Soldier. This time he's managed to locate the enemies communications cable that leads to the surveillance tower, cutting off this route will serve the Soldiers well in their attack.
What's going on everybody?
I apologize for not uploading a NEW custom in a while, but I hope I'll be able to upload a lot more in the weeks to come.
So... my third character from my SB-Verse Bat Family is completed. I had a lot of fun making her. I was inspired to make her when I saw this picture. I loved the design, so I decided to base mine on the one in the picture. But I changed it up a little, by adding red detailing. I'm really happy with the way the red/gold combo turned out! I sanded the the hair piece a little so you can see her right eye better. I also slimmed down her sides and exposed her shoulders to give her a more feminine look. The sword holder is made out of paper. The entire figure was painted by me, with a mix of toothpicks and high-detail brushes. I was going for a League of Assassins/Shadows look, which is what I got. Overall, even though there are obvious flaws, I'm still very happy with the way she came out!
Let me know what you think, I'd love to hear your thoughts.
P.S. Like my Last of Us pictures, the background editing is inspired by Logan Fulford's editing technique, so credit to that goes to him.
P.P.S.I also apologize if the picture is a dark. I had some lighting issues, and the editing made it a little darker.
P.P.P.S. The next SB-Verse figures will probably be Oracle, Killer Croc, Scarecrow and Penguin. Things might change, but I'm pretty sure those will be next.
