Commentary.
08:00, my son, James, and I left base-camp at Glen Brittle beach.
Ninety minutes in and the gentle foothills are behind us.
As we stare into Coire Lagan, Sgurr Alasdair looks awesome, impenetrable, and unclimbable.
As we summit the corrie’s smooth-rocked, ice-scoured lip to the corrie lake the basalt and gabbro wall of rock shows a thin grey streak of ice-shattered scree.
The two thousand foot, “Great Stone Shoot,” gives a narrow but climbable rocky desert.
Three hours in and we reach the col at the base of the summit.
One final scramble and this view south welcomes us at 11:22.
On top of the world, level with powder-puff clouds we peer down on a balmy Hebridean Sea, Rum, Soay, Rubha an Dunain peninsula, Loch Brittle and the beach campsite.
Further on the horizon the southern end of the Outer Hebrides, as far as Barra, can be seen, over fifty miles distant.
How this feels like a God-like throne –
Shared by us
– mere mortals.
Panorama from Sgurr Alasdair, 993 m. (3,258 feet), Isle of Skye.
Poem.
A seat with the Gods.
Brush the clouds.
Touch the sky.
Nigh on one thousand metres up on precipitous ridges of gabbro, basalt and bands of quartz.
On the serrated, pinnacled, fragmented remnant ridge
of a long-time extinct and exploded super-volcano.
Having clambered past the Fairy Pools,
The Cioch, Coire Lagan, the Inaccessible Pinnacle and two thousand foot of sharp, shattered scree making up the Great Stone Chute and the final summit arête, this is the view southwards.
To stand here.
And see this.
It is surreal.
Spiritual.
An honour.
A privilege.
A sight that relatively few have seen.
But those that have seen it, will not forget.
To see for 80-100 miles in all directions.
To see Ben Nevis, An Teallach,
Ben More on Mull,
Canna, Rum, Eigg, Muck and Soay.
And to see a large part of the incredible Isle of Skye, itself,
and the Outer Hebrides.
It is too much to take in, too much to believe.
I shall have to return and confirm that it was real,
not, merely, a wonderful dream!
Been working on this a lot during the past month, and after a dozen drafts or so, I finally found a way of folding the head and front legs that I like! I designed my first stegosaurus ten years ago, and this uses the same basic structural approach... but I've come a long way since then: flic.kr/p/2Rro11
"Let's move it, Goldenrod! Unless you wanna become a permanent fixture here?!"
Suggested by Wizard of X, I revisited my snow cave with some Star Wars stuff. I scraped the roof a little and roughed up the floor, too. My Echo Base isn't nearly as trashed as in the movie, but I didn't want to be there any longer than Han. My wife didn't want me in there, either!
Étant passionné de JP/Groove dolls à la base, mon premier "craquage BJDesque" fût le Pipo Maestro Baha. Malheureusement, je trouvais sa gueule trop rondouillarde et ses oreilles étranges. De plus, sa rareté et son prix m'ont complètement rebuté à l'acquérir et m'ont dirigé vers le Hujoo Freyr. Au vu de son accessibilité, j'ai pu le modifier à ma guise pour me rapprocher du Maestro Baha...mais en mieux (à mes yeux, bien entendu!). Du coup, cela a été un réel régal de travailler sur ce moule qui est vraiment épais (pas comme les Pullip et co.), qui se ponce facilement mais qui est, par contre, plus petit. J'ai donc re-créé la gueule pour un air plus réaliste, agrandis et arrondis les yeux pour qu'ils soient plus kawaii et plus proche de mes premiers amours, les JP/Groove dolls. Pour le maquillage, il est évidemment très inspiré du Maestro Baha mais je l'ai voulu plus poilu et moins "lisse". Ça se voit surtout sur le corps qui n'est pas encore terminé et qui possède...un sexe. XD
Passionated about JP / Groove dolls, my first "heart-crush on a BJD " was the Pipo was Maestro Baha... Unfortunately, I found his mouth too plump and ears too strange. Moreover, his rarity and price have completely disgusted me to acquire him and led me to the Hujoo Freyr. Thank to its accessibility, I changed it in my own way to get closer to the Maestro Baha ... but better (to me, of course) . So, it was really good to work on this mold because it is really thick (not like the Pullip and co.), sands easily but, it is smaller. So I re-created the mouth for a more realistic look , enlarged and rounded eyes to be more kawaii and closer to my first love , the JP / Groove dolls. For the makeup, it is obviously very inspired by the Maestro Baha but I wanted more a hairy and less "smooth" look. It's clearly an evidence on the body that is not finished and has a ... sex. XD

Mars Base Camp is Lockheed Martin’s concept for sending humans to Mars in about a decade. Using NASA’s Orion spacecraft as the command deck, the orbiting outpost could give scientists/astronauts the ability to operate rovers and drones on the surface in real time, helping us better understand the Red Planet.
Based on the legend written by T.H. White in which Arthur brings Excalibur to his nervous step-brother Sir Kay because he has forgotten to bring his sword to the tournament. Sir Ector also stands by.
For the Fairy Tale category of CCCVIII. There is also a full Full Gallery.
Started work on the base of the support legs. As there'll be four legs, and being a four-sided design, every time I take a brick out I have to consider if I've got 16 or 32 of them, which is really annoying. But I'm happy with the second revision although you can't see most of the detail because my phone thinks black bricks are an empty void from which light does not escape : (

Just a teaser. There is still some work to do...
The station will have a few more modules and I'll add at least the 2 missing baseplates in the lower left corner. Detail photos will follow...
Based on the Teknomeka frame. Some slight modifications made to the elbow area. I started on this 3 years ago but never got the time to complete it till now!!

An officer speaks on walkie-talkie as the Bastion anti-ship missile systems take positions on the Alexandra Land island near Nagurskoye, Russia, Monday, May 17, 2021. Bristling with missiles and radar, Russia's northernmost military base projects the country's power and influence across the Arctic from a remote, desolate island amid an intensifying international competition for the region's vast resources. Russia's northernmost military outpost sits on the 80th parallel North, projecting power over wide swathes of Arctic amid an intensifying international rivalry over the polar region's vast resources.

Thats our way to get a well presentation for our minfigures.
There is a standard base for one minfigure wich can be connected with another one. Two bases are connected by the legs of a minifigure in the retral line. So you get two lines of minfigures with a great view of all of them.

J'ai eu envie de créer un modèle sur le thème de l'espace après avoir joué au jeu Terraforming Mars. Mon idée s'est posée sur une base de lancement en 2D. Je me suis principalement basé sur le lancement de la fusée Saturn V pour ce modèle. Pour ce faire, j'ai créé la fusée et la tour de lancement séparément. Le défi était de les unir sur un seul papier.
I wanted to create a space-themed model after playing Terraforming Mars. My idea went to a 2D launch base. I mainly based myself on the Saturn V launch for this model. To do so, I designed the rocket and the launch pad separately. The challenge was to unite them on a single paper.
The Annapurna Base Camp was the destination of my trekking trip in Nepal.
It is considered to be one of the most picturesque trekking routes in Nepal and it was a real challenge for me.
Every meter and step ( I had to manage several 10000) through bamboo and rhododendron forests, beautiful mountain villages, rice fields, hot springs, wild high mountain landscapes and breathtaking views of the many 7 and 8000s. It was worth it.
The Basecamp is located at the foot of the southern Annapurna Glacier, surrounded by Annapurna-South (7219 m), Annapurna I (8091 m), Khangsar Kang (7465 m), Gangapurna (7485 m) and Annapurna III (7555 m)It was an unforgettable experience.
A big thanksto my tour guid Krishan and
my Porter Dawa.
