I had a bit of a color play with this picture of the walkway between the Vinings and the Double Reynolds Warehouse at Gloucester Docks...
As this shop is built on a slope, the rear windows are almost at ground level with the ceiling being at about chest height from this side of the building.
From the inside it seems normal apart from the fact you are looking at peoples knees as they walk past outside.
(The shop assistant inside is stood on a step ladder).

After Bricks Cascade, they will only be available in a wider release later this summer, so take advantage of the sneak peek and buy them at Bricks Cascade this weekend.
Located at the heart of the most fertile Gangetic basin, Chandannagar is nestled with brick-kilns producing extremely high quality 'fired clay bricks', primarily used for domestic construction. The high silt content of this soil is apt for the finest brick production, mushrooming multiple such kilns along the river coast. This is the produce of one such kiln, right before its ready to be shipped/ transported.

A pigeon shuffles up and down a rooftop, in a loop. Possibly a mating behavior. Possibly just very bored...
This 22x sized headlight brick was built for the 1st quarter 2022 build challenge for Steel City LUG. This build has a few surprises...

I don't know why I, a life-long teacher, like this Pink Floyd song as much as I do. Perhaps it's because I never used "dark sarcasm in the classroom". For those who either enjoy the song or want to hear it for the first time, feel free to click on this link:
art created from my photos
The main image began as a brick building wall that was immediately in front of me in a parking lot. It was made of yellow bricks and (I think intentionally) created with sloppy mortar which had oozed out between many of the bricks while some seem to have almost no mortar at all, creating an interesting bas-relief pattern. (If it wasn't intentional, I think I could have done a neater job myself, despite never having laid a brick in my life.)
Yet, by itself, it wasn't terribly interesting, so I gathered some of my other photos & digital art and added textures and colors to individual bricks, but not the mortar. As simple as this seems, it took about three times as long as I anticipated. The most time-consuming part was going back at the end and removing any bits of texture or color from the mortar in an extreme-zoom view.

So I wanted this MOC flic.kr/p/YLQEXs to feature a light brick inside the cockpit, and only had one possible place for a button mechanism. I didn't want to alter the look of the gun turret/base too much, turned out I hardly had to change it, only a round tile changed to an inverted round plate.
One slope is there to push the light's trigger, the 2 others, while not absolutely necessary, keep things straight & stable. The outer ring prevents the button from falling off, as it lets the round plate pass, but blocks the slope parts. Works pretty well!
(45 degree slopes fit the trigger's slope better, but don't work any better, only use more parts)
I also have a design for a clicky flip switch, used in another MOC, if anyone is interested.
Trying my hand at painting Brick Affliction's fantastic Chief armor:
• Testor's Black figure Primer
• Citadel Lustrian Undergrowth (Texture)
• Citadel Auric Armour Gold (Layer)
• Citadel Ironbreaker (Layer)
I probably could have used a wash over the armor, but I thought it mght make it too dark. I may try it on my second set.
Many thanks to Pecovam for the gift of the armor at BrickFair this year. It as tremendous amount of detail, and was a lot of fun to paint.
Oh, and yes, that is a new Sniper Rifle prototype in his hand.
