Here is a selection of Routemaster buses digitally-prepared to receive new liveries. All have been modified to (fictional) export specification vehicles of various lengths. Note the different doorway and staircase arrangements (the right hand pair have dual staircases). The front doors came from an RMF-type Routemaster, whereas the rear doors came from an RMC (with hindsight it would have been better to have used the same style of doors throughout). The open rear platform came from an RML (updated 05-Oct-13).

The Chevrolet Volt is a plug-in series hybrid vehicle to be produced by General Motors, expected to be launched as a 2011 model with production currently slated to begin in 2010. The Volt's propulsion system will be based on GM's new E-Flex platform.
Unlike current commercially available hybrids, the actual propulsion of the Volt is accomplished by the electric motor, as the internal combustion engine (ICE) is not mechanically connected to the wheels. With fully charged batteries, this electric power may be sourced exclusively from its onboard lithium-ion batteries, for up to 40 miles (64 km), a distance capable of satisfying the daily commute of 75% of Americans, which averages around 33 miles (53 km).
After 40 miles (64 km), the range of the Volt will need to be extended through the use of a small 4-cylinder ICE which drives a 53 kW generator. The electrical power from the generator is then sent to either the electric motor or the batteries, depending on the state of charge (SOC) of the battery pack and the power demanded at the wheels. The distribution is controlled by the electronic control unit (ECU) of the vehicle. This effectively extends the Volt's potential range to as much as 640 miles (1,030 km) on a single tank of fuel (which could be potentially extended for longer trips through conventional refueling).
The Volt's 16 kWh lithium-ion battery pack can also be fully charged (technically ~85% SOC) by plugging the car into a 120-240VAC residential electrical outlet using the provided SAE J1772 compliant charging cord. No external charging station will be required.

This group of photos were taken on a private visit to Fab Falconry with Bognor Regis Camera Club on a sunny afternoon/evening & were made most welcome to a very enjoyable time.
Loosely based on Chinese guardian lions or 'foo dogs' as some call them. This MOC was a fun exercise in using Lego cloth elements as a flexible skin around an inner frame. The result is a very cohesive look with some fun patterns that would be very hard to achieve otherwise.
The MOC has several points of articulation that allow it to take a natural sitting pose. One rotation in the torso behind the shoulders, hollow thighs for the back legs to fold up, and a rotation at the base of the tail.
The detail I'm most proud of however is the plant sprue pieces used for the lips. This is my last MOC for 2022, I hope you all like it!

One of the best decisions I ever made was creating for SL. I truly enjoy every day I get to spend building things for here. Hearing feedback, seeing returning customers, and getting to talk with them makes it all worthwhile. I don’t let it consume me, but every time I create something new, it puts a smile on my face. 😊 @
Another skiff based on models by monsterpartyhat with more than a little inspiration from -majortom-. This small one-seater is equipped to sift through the shallow waters of the wetland farms of T\'brini for delicious fish eggs.
Still trying to get the lighting to behave. I realized that I use my computer with "nightlight mode" and that that skews the actual render hue. This model also shows off one thing that many irl builders dont always realize about digital mocs: you have to place EVERY PART. Maybe someday I’ll get Blender physics to work with builds and then I can just let “piles” of parts fall into place.

The Kerinci Mountain is located in Jambi Province, Indonesia.
In Summer Argentina operates Cámara Base at the foot of La Morenita in the southwest corner of Half Moon Island, South Shetland Islands, Antarctica. It does research into physical oceanography and geochronology and carries out meteorological observations.
Note that the edges to the fin and the top of the fuselage are anti-bird spikes! With thanks to Little Rock Air Force Base for allowing me onto the base to take photographs!
I suppose eastern Washington is many things to many people.
Moving about these nondescript rolling farmlands, alternately filled with tumbleweeds, sagebrush, dilapidated fences and buildings is just not my favorite thing to do. I am used to forests and abundant greens that can be seen throughout the Olympic Peninsula. I will choose mountains and valleys every time given a choice of my surroundings.
One highlight of our recent trip was visiting Washington's official state waterfall----Palouse Falls. I had mentioned to my son Cole that it would be fun to reach the base of this falls and he mentioned that it could be done.
From the parking lot and high vantage points, he took me to a four foot fence that we had to jump, then we began a descent through a 3 to 4 foot wide and steep trail through a basalt rock fissure. It was cool and sort of crazy. We had to stop two times, take of our backpacks and hand them sideways to the other. It was a tight squeeze.
Once we cleared this area, we hit a trail that went along a steep headwall. The views were good, but it was breezy and at first I was not comfortable in these surroundings. We moved along for a bit then came to the part of the trail that dropped steeply down to the river bottom. Cole had problems here and had to scoot along on his butt. I managed fine, because I had on my good hiking boots.
Once we got to the bottom, the movement was fine. I wanted to get lower perspective photographs of this waterfall rather than the "normal, here we are, shoot from the high fence normal every human being does this photographic opportunity effort"!
How was that for a run on sentence?
So, here is my son Cole near the base of this large waterfall. It was a very fun day with a pretty cool young man :)
Standing near the base of the old scout camp you can see part of the East Peak Mountain top. this is not the highest point of the East Peak, but its close to 13,000 ft. It's about a 2-1/2 mile hike from where we are. We are in the Spanish Peak wilderness area. This a compressed view from my 200mm lens its further than it looks to the top.
The Pickens railroad originally operated out of Pickens, SC to Easely, SC. However, it has been abandoned and torn out. Here in Pickens, though, the original HQ and a static display of their Baldwin locomotive VO660 is still standing. They tell me the locomotive is still intact on the inside. Nov 19, 2015.

Não estava nos meus planos c o m p r a r essa base, mas ouvi falar muito bem dela por aí, tipo, alguns comentários que ela era ótima pra pele oleosa.
Passei numa lojinha de bobeira hoje no centro da cidade e vi essa coisinha lá... Não resisti e testei a amostrinha do provador e fiquei encantadíssima... Passei um tiquinho no dorso da mão, espalhei (ela é cremosinha), 2 minutos depois a minha pele tava sequiiiinha...
Ela é líquida, meio cremosa, mas depois de espalhar ela some e deixa a pele matte! Era tudo que eu queria, né? minha pele é absurdamente oleosa!
Acabei levando...
Melhor ainda foi que encontrei uma cor que deu certinho em mim! Ficou muito natural. Foi a nº 05, Vanilla.
Acho até que vou desistir da Studio Fix e só comprar a Face & Body... Já fiquei muito contente com essa. :)
Alguém aqui tem a Superbalanced? Gostaram dela?
