Still new to this, so now I'm trying to find out my own technique...
Tnx Domen ;)
Another shot slightly based on scenes from the Logan movie. I wish i had the right facial expression for this scene otherwise i would be more pleased with the endresult... Darn... i need more headpieces...

PHWOAR! That's my husband, that is - but shhhh - don't tell him (she says in a Shakespearean 'aside'!!) :-)
*Now* let him moan that he looks too pretty! :P
Was trying for an old gothic 'woodcut' feel to this - dunno if it came off or not, but scuffing the ole man up was rewarding nonetheless!! :D (that didn't sound dirty in my head btw! :P)
No apologies for this raw image, as sometimes an image presents itself and you simply *have* to shoot. Here, that intoxicating creative urge resulted in an interesting portrait, dont you think? Russell Hoban said 'William Shakespeare's Caliban is one of the hungry ideas, he’s always looking for someone to word him into being...Caliban is a necessary idea'. This was also true for this picture, although rather than 'worded' he was 'imaged' into being. Oscar Wilde said that 'The nineteenth century dislike of realism is the rage of Caliban seeing his own face in a glass'. Although here captured in motionless pose rather than prose, I'm sure he would react in a similar manner to sight of his tempestuous image captured in glass by my 20th century Daguerreotype.
A while back when I posted my Velo Racer some guys said I should GARC it (no idea why I didn't make it GARC in the first place). Anyway, structurally it's mostly the same, but now the colors are pretty different, and it has more stickers. One of the older sets that I had when I was younger was Shark's Crystal Cave, and I always loved the cockpit arrangement on the Aquashark vehicle. I don't really see that shark decal cockpit used much so I was really happy when it ended up working with this build.

No. 18 May 1921
The portrait accompanied an article titled "A Friendly Suggestion about Art Schools" by David Edstrom. Chat GPT gave the following summary and analysis of this piece:
David Edstrom, writing as both an artist and cultural observer, offers a forceful endorsement of the Otis Art Institute in Los Angeles, particularly under the leadership of its director, Channel Pickering Townsley. He opens with a philosophical reflection on the choice between authenticity and superficiality in both personal and cultural life. Edstrom argues that the highest form of beauty is not surface-level, but the kind that builds communities and societies.
He praises the Otis Institute for being grounded in sound and progressive principles, calling it one of the finest institutions of its kind. However, he warns that bureaucratic inefficiency and amateur interference threaten its success. He criticizes delays in basic operations—such as taking a week to approve a minor carpentry job—as examples of mismanagement.
Edstrom calls for the school to become a self-governing entity with full authority granted to the director, warning that otherwise the “brain voltage of a great man” (Townsley) and the time and energy of faculty and students will be squandered. He closes with a sharp rebuke of institutional meddling by unqualified outsiders ("dilettantes") and a plea for autonomy and professional respect.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Townsley resigned from his post as managing director of the Otis Art Institute in about June 1921. This piece may explain his reasons for resigning.

About the author:
David Edstrom (1873–1938), also known as Peter David Edstrom or Pehr David Emanuel Edström, was a Swedish-American sculptor renowned for his expressive portrait busts and symbolic works.
Born in Vetlanda, Sweden, Edstrom immigrated to the United States with his family in 1880, settling in Ottumwa, Iowa. There, he developed an early interest in sculpture, studying under Johannes Scheiwe. In 1894, he returned to Sweden to pursue formal art education at the Royal Institute of Technology and the Royal Swedish Academy of Arts in Stockholm .
In 1900, Edstrom moved to Florence, Italy, attending the Accademia di Belle Arti di Firenze. During this period, he created notable sculptures such as Caliban (1900), Sphinx (1900), Lucifer (1902), The Cry of Poverty (1903), Despair (1904), and Pride (1904) . He also spent time in Paris, becoming part of Gertrude Stein's artistic circle and sculpting portraits of figures like Harriet Lane Levy.
Edstrom returned to the U.S. in 1915, settling in Los Angeles around 1920. He became one of the organizers of the Los Angeles County Museum of Art and was active in the local art scene. One of his significant American works includes the Soldiers and Sailors Monument in Ottumwa, Iowa, featuring four reliefs on a shaft topped with a large eagle . In 1937, he created a statue of Florence Nightingale, titled Lady of the Lamp, for the Works Progress Administration's Federal Artists Program.
Edstrom's autobiography, The Testament of Caliban (1937), offers insight into his life and artistic philosophy. Despite early acclaim, his later years were marked by relative obscurity, and he passed away in Los Angeles in 1938. Today, his contributions are recognized within Swedish-American cultural history, though he remains a lesser-known figure in the broader art historical canon .

Walter Caliban: "Welcome!"
Samantha Caliban: "Okay, why'd you bring us here dad?"
Walter Caliban: "Well, we have a problem. A big one."
Andy Le: "What kind of problem? Also please don't tell me that we hav-"
Walter Caliban: "Yep, ya have to drive. To Texas."
Andy Le: "Yeah, not sure if I am up to this."
Derek Brown: "We're going to have to do this, ya know that Andy?"
Andy Le: "Yep, alright."
Derek Brown: "Don't worry, I won't crash like last time."
Samantha Caliban: "Yeah, right. You crashed 3 vehicles in a month. You crashed the truck, you crashed the boat, and while you did your driving test, you crashed another car. Also, I'm in."
Walter Caliban: "Okay, good. Here is the plan. We sent a group of scouts that includes that banana guy and Clemmins, I won't list names, but they got kidnapped. Ford set up a truck for you, so you can head on down to Texas. I'd say they are near the Gas Empire. You will have to head through the Reds and down to the Gas Empire. After that, go south from the empire, and I believe that they are right here. This X is where you want to go. Understood? Alright."
Marcus Ford: (visibly eating beans) "Here's the keys, you guys can head on out. Also, here is the keys to the armory, don't take all the weapons."
Samantha Caliban: "Okay, thanks dad. Also, Marcus, chew with your mouth closed."
------------------------------------
The characters start heading the truck after picking some weapons and ammo from the army.
------------------------------------
Andy Le: "Can we at least tell your dad to get more people to come?"
Derek Brown: "Yeah, if these guys get kidnapped, how are we supposed beat them with a smaller number of people? Also that's your que, Andy"
Andy Le: "It's basic science, is it?"
Samantha Caliban: "Fine, gosh. Lets go back and ask people to join us."
Derek Brown: "Hey, does anyone want to shoot some guns?"
Ft. Ducced Residents: "Nah, no thanks."
2 unknown voices: "We will join ya!"
Andy Le: "Finally! Alright lets go."
2 unknown voices: "You don't bother to learn our names..."
Derek Brown: "To be honest with ya, we just need some people to help use guns and kill some crazy Texans, you in or out."
Duncan: "Well, too bad, this is Sonya and I am Duncan."
Samantha Caliban: "C'mon, lets hustle, we picked out guns for you, and here ya go."
Sonya: "Seriously, give us the big guns!"
Samantha Caliban: "No, we're going. We can't waste time."
Sonya: "GO TO HELL!"
Andy Le: "Woah there. Why don't we just calm down?"
Duncan: "Yeah, good idea. C'mon, Sonya, lets go.

Crazy Announcer: "Oh my god, look at that! What a bloodbath! We're going to need more of this! Haha! This is got to be the best incident yet! Yeah!
Roadhogs: YEAHH! MR. CHUCKLES DID IT GOOD!
Crazy Announcer: Alright, lets go, bring 'em back. We're going to need more bloodthirsty animals.
The Prinsentuin in Groningen is a wonderful seventeenth-century green haven in a busy town. The small herbal garden is a nice spot for a relaxing amble. Its borders are full of herbs nicely named with engraved signs.
But those signs might lead the non-cognoscenti astray. This pretty Common Mallow is misidentified as Malva moschata, Musk-Mallow. Regardless, it's quite pretty, I think. Looking upon it today I was reminded of Prospero's Island in Shakespeare's The Tempest. There's an episode of punning with Gonzalo, a truly honest man. In the punning lines this Mallow is referred to as a weed, unprofitable symbol, as someone has written, of Neglected Land. Gonzalo is the only character in the play who regards the fearsome and much-loathed Caliban as more than a demonic beast. So also our Mallow is for me much more than a 'mere' weed!
'Caliban', an 0-4-0 saddle tank, was built by Peckett and Sons at their works in Bristol in February 1937. It was built for Courtaulds and worked at their Red Scar rayon mill in Preston.
When its working life at Courtaulds was over, the locomotive was preserved, being taken to Steamtown, Carnforth. It then went to the Lakeside and Haverthwaite Railway but is now in the care of the Furness Railway Trust at the Ribble Steam Railway in Preston.
1T57 was the excursion number of the 15 Guinea Special; the last steam passenger train to run in the UK.

Speech: Be not afeard; the isle is full of noises,
Sounds and sweet airs, that give delight and hurt not.
Sometimes a thousand twangling instruments
Will hum about mine ears, and sometime voices
That, if I then had waked after long sleep,
Will make me sleep again: and then, in dreaming,
The clouds methought would open and show riches
Ready to drop upon me that, when I waked,
I cried to dream again.

Mission Log: January 1st: 2036
-Walter Caliban
It has been a struggle, but the team found a van that could support travel. We ended up heading back to the Fort because we lost all of the resources and the mission was too risky. I’m not sure if the farm that we found is stable. There is about 3 survivors which isn’t a good sign.
-Joel Alexander
Some new survivors came, I feel like they'll take over, but I'm the best shot out here. They just have one shotgun, I'll be able to kill 'em if they mess with me and the gang.
-Joseph Malloy
We needed to get to Fort Ducced, we were going to drive all the way back. Or else we would die. I am in so much stress right now, life or death. I need a drink... Wait, who are you?
-Samantha Caliban
Oh god, what now? More survivors? Why can’t we just go to the Fort, I haven’t been there in ages.
================
So I am back with another episode... hope ya guys like it and uhh I have a lot of ideas.
Standing in a siding by the shed at Haverthwaite, is the 1937 Peckett 0-4-0ST w/n.1925 "Caliban". The picture is circa 1974.

I DO NOT take credit for this photo. It was taken by Joel cooper. It was uploaded as a favor to a folder who wished to see the final product of a crease pattern. All credit goes to Joel cooper for this mask.

First attempts to master the macro lens set Raynox 250 paired to a sigma 70-300 lens kit. Tnx so MUCH to great Friend and Flickrmaster mselderuis for suggestions and tech advice !!!!!
Those were the pictures bearing the signature: Odilon Redon. They held, between their gold-edged frames of unpolished pearwood, undreamed-of images: a Merovingian-type head, resting upon a cup; a bearded man, reminiscent both of a Buddhist priest and a public orator, touching an enormous cannon-ball with his finger; a spider with a human face lodged in the centre of its body. Then there were charcoal sketches which delved even deeper into the terrors of fever-ridden dreams. Here, on an enormous die, a melancholy eyelid winked; over there stretched dry and arid landscapes, calcinated plains, heaving and quaking ground, where volcanos erupted into rebellious clouds, under foul and murky skies; sometimes the subjects seemed to have been taken from the nightmarish dreams of science, and hark back to prehistoric times; monstrous flora bloomed on the rocks; everywhere, in among the erratic blocks and glacial mud, were figures whose simian appearance--heavy jawbone, protruding brows, receding forehead, and flattened skull top--recalled the ancestral head, the head of the first Quaternary Period, the head of man when he was still fructivorous and without speech, the contemporary of the mammoth, of the rhinoceros with septate nostrils, and of the giant bear. These drawings defied classification; unheeding, for the most part, of the limitations of painting, they ushered in a very special type of the fantastic, one born of sickness and delirium."
This is the crease pattern for caliban reverse engineered ( R.E. For short). This is only the left-hand side though. But the mask is symmetrical. So the right-hand side is a mirror image. The vertical turquoise line is the middle of the whole cp. If anyone tries this mask out, and I'd wager most of you will, I strongly recommend trying a simpler mask design first. This is a VERY complex design. Especially the eyes and horns. Not to mention that the grid is horizontal as opposed to vertical like most traditional grids. I'd also recommend folding the horns and eyes on seperate sheets of paper to work out the subtleties. I definitely wouldn't recommend paper other than elephant hide (or wyndstone marble as it's called here in the US). If there are any mistakes I apologize in advance. But there shouldn't be any, since I've folded this one myself and it came out one-to-one to the joel coopers. Lastly, just so you know, the starting size proportion of the rectangle is 3x4 with a 96 division grid folded horizontally. I think a good starting size is 48 centimeters by 64 centimeters. This will give you a mask measuring 20 centimeters by 20 centimeters. All credit goes to joel cooper for this design. If you guys haven't seen his work you should definitely check out his flickr page origamijoel and blog at Wordpress. He does phenomenal work!
Ps, I do plan on uploading more crease patterns for his masks. I currently have two more ready to go and two others that I will begin working on in a week or so.
