My kids have remote control helicopters that look kind of like this, with much shorter, wider rotor blades than a typical full-size helicopter. It allows for a smaller overall size for the aircraft, which makes it easier to maneuver and land. I don't know if it's a practical design for a full-size chopper, but I wanted to make one in Lego anyway.
Also on display is a bunch of stuff I picked up at Brickfair. I think the minifig cat miniguns I got from MBW work great with Chris' drones because of their larger size relative to minifigs. I also love the eclipseGrafx torsos and Brickarms pulse rifles I got from contributing to the Cyberpocalypse collaboration. Thanks Vic and Will!

Würzburg is een stad met overzichtelijke afmetingen en de trams die er tijdens mijn eerste bezoek in 1977 dienst deden, waren compact. Ook de grootte van het in 1954 opgeleverde stationsgebouw is afgestemd op de behoefte van een provinciestad. Het voor de jaren vijftig karakteristieke stationsgebouw is ontworpen door architect Hans Kern. De kraam met worstjes voor de uitgang van het station ontbreekt uiteraard niet.
De enkelgelede Düwag-tram heeft ook deuren aan de linker zijde. Op het achterbalkon is een hulpstuurstand aangebracht. De wagens konden zodoende bij behoefte in tweerichtingbedrijf gebruikt worden. Primair zijn de wagens echter voor eenrichtingbedrijf ingericht. Men sprak in dit geval ook wel van anderhalfrichtingwagens. Op de kopwand zien we de verschillende contactdozen voor bijwagenbedrijf. Destijds werd er op werkdagen nog met kleine tweeassige bijwagens achter deze gelede trams gereden.
Tram 233 maakt deel uit van een serie van tien enkelgelde zesassers die in 1967 en 1968 door Düwag werden geleverd. Vanwege het krappe profiel van vrij ruimte zijn de koppen sterk afgeschuind. In 1982 werden de wagens door het invoegen van een nieuwe tussenbak verlengd tot dubbelgelede achtassers.

The final to my future-auto exploration. This time, based on several retro-future compact-car designs (including by Syd Mead of course). Ironically, this is the only of the three that actually fits a full figure.
The purpose of the three cars was to look at what I consider the three main areas of consumer-cars in futuristic media: Luxury, Show, and Utility. I am disregarding Industrial and Military as I have made a ton of the former already and I don't really like the latter.
Hi!
I made a remake of an old photo, but this time, with a stop motion clip: www.youtube.com/watch?v=q5d9783-Ib4
Enjoy!
My first move from number taking to photography was too black and white using a Hanimex Compact non SLR “point and shoot” camera with a 40mm lens of dubious quality around the edges of the frame. Here we find a four car Class 115 diesel muitiple unit idling alongside Marylebone depot sometime in 1974. The depot on the left was the original six road carriage sheds built in 1898 converted to service the Class 115 fleet allocated for Marylebone suburban services in 1961. Apart from the Class 115 fleet the depot also had one of Cricklewood’s diesel shunters outstationed. This was I think the only occasion I visited the depot in daylight as usually I would visit late at night whilst waiting time to catch an overnight service from Paddington. At that late time of day the six roads would be full of Class 115’s, most of which would still be have their Leyland Albion engines idling away resulting in the dimly lit shed having an ghostly smoke filled atmosphere. Forty one Class 115 high density suburban four car sets were ordered from Derby Works and entered traffic in 1960. Thirty five sets were allocated to Marylebone with the remaining six sets allocated to Allerton for Liverpool suburban duties. The Class 115 fleet at Marylebone operated until displaced by Class 165 units around 1991 when the fleet was generally withdrawn. The Class 165 fleet was also provided with a new depot at Aylesbury and Marylebone depot was closed. The site is now covered in blocks of flats.
Hanimex Compact, Ilford FP4
and I'm meaning in a good way! He has a nice short back,and is put together fairly well. [I think,lol] Took these pics for his markings
A cosy box, Crewe Steel Works still has a good number of working levers, with its crossover and access to and from the Electric Traction Depot.
It's a 1935 built LMS type.
To me, it would seem that a dandelion bloom would be somehow different than this. I think that it's because a dandelion's fibers are all so scattered, at first glance, that it seems unlikely that they start out so orderly. Then the reasoning kicks in that dandelions use air dispersal to get their offspring away from the parent plant. Of course, then, there isn't a random combination of structures. They must be grown specifically to take advantage of being both light and fluffy.
Still with me? Gone to take a snooze?
Late 70's shot of a load of used Chryslers. I have another view of this rig but I found this better pic on FB.
These tiny leaves are sort of peculiar. I don't know if the plant is dehydrated or if it's just a part of the physiology of the plant, but the stem of the leaf looks rather flat, doesn't it? Plants are such bizarre creatures in the first place when you compare them to animals.
Almost exclusively do they not rely on other animals for direct nutrition. Almost all of them are rooted in one way or another to a substrate. Their gross anatomy is so unlike ours.
Then again. Earth teems with plants. Maybe we're the odd ones.
The interconnected steering/suspension I designed for my Volvo Wolfhound LMVs (pictured configuration), and other smaller vehicles like my MB G-Wagon on the right (using a four studs wide base). Works best for display purposes, but it also rolls and articulates quite well and it can be scaled up or down using different lengths of the old technic plates and clips/tiles connecting the wheel mounts.
