"This compact machine had no trouble using the same terrain as tanks!" - Dr Ferry Porsche
"So seaworthy was the vehicle that a committee...seriously tried to get Dr. Porsche to equip it with a green light to starboard and a red one to port to conform to international navigation rules."
The most mass-produced amphibious car in history. However, of the original 14,265 to 15,584 built (accounts vary), only 189 are known to still exist today. 13 of which are still running without any major restoration work done.
I really, really like the Schwimmwagen. For a utilitarian, military vehicle, it's actually nice looking. Pretty, even. And just curvy enough to be tricky to do in Lego. A lot of people have built Schwimmwagen MOCs in this scale, and they're usually well done. But I wanted to give it a go anyway. The Kettenkrad was added as an afterthought...which ended up taking longer than the Schwimmwagen in the end. But I'm glad I got to include it.

What a moment!
Two at the same time. One on my front, one on my back.
Shots with compact sony manual mode.
The compact Comet shared a naming convention associated with the ongoing Space Race of the early 1960s. Early Comets received better-grade interior trim than concurrent Falcons, and a slightly longer wheelbase.
That sharp wedge plate has odd dimensions being 3.5 studs long, and I was curious as to what it could be meshed with on a standard grid. The humble pentagonal tile was the answer, and the circular tile was the cherry on top (well, bottom). The result is this modern looking coupe - short wheelbase with the usual touch of angry styling.
This is the Trash Compactor Diorama I made for last weeks series of shots. There's not much to it but it worked pretty good.
Thanks to my wife for quickly creating a properly-scaled plunger for this shot.

I obviously also had a proper camera with me, but it will take some time for the film to be developed, so in the meantime, I'll have to make do with this shot with a Point&Shoot digital compact that has a Fujifilm SuperCCD sensor.
Like all compact cameras, it's not heavy enough to be used sensibly in low light, when the exposure time increases.
The noise isn't too bad yet for ISO 1600. It looks OK when viewed on a mobile unit, but one should not look too closely at this image on a large screen. That's not what this camera was designed for.
Greggsy rockin' the Instax 210 on the wonderful tunnel bridge over the Clydeside Expressway.
P.S. I'm waiting on my invitation to the Cliche Glasgow group :-)
Pocket cutter, which could be used by engineers for the opening of something not very massive. Possible the narrowing of the beam in one spot for more precise operations.
Just finished Dead Space and Dead Space 2, it was AWESOME! Very liked it, now it's my second favorite franchise after Mass Effect. Scary in some moments, but still dynamic and awesome. Cant wait for DS3.
And I hope the Severed DLC will port on PC.
Comments and fan-emotions from Dead Space would be cool.
P.S.: Which moment in DS2 was most *SCARY!1* for you? For me it was a sun on a school scene. I shoot it off from it's place (nervous, yup) and killed 2 monsters with it and with *WAAAAAAAGH* :3
In Aubagne, een kwartier sporen van Marseille, rijden sinds 2014 trams op een 2,5 km lang lijntje tussen het station en de buitenwijk Le Charrel. Uitbreidingen die door het centrum en naar Marseille zouden lopen zijn na de komst van een nieuwe burgemeester afgeblazen.
De decoratie en stoelbekleding van de Alstom Citadis Compact-trams zijn ontworpen door de Franse schilder Hervé Di Rosa. Daarin worden de reizigers voorgesteld als cyclopen met een grote mond. Alleen de tram zelf is tweeogig
In Aubagne, only 15 minutes by train from Marseille, trams are running on a 2.5km-long line from the station to Le Charrel quarter. Extensions through the city centre and towards Marseille were cancelled by a new mayor.
The livery and seat upholstery of the Alstom Citadis Compact trams are designed by French painter Hervé Di Rosa. The passengers are represented as cyclops with a big mouth. Only the tram itself has two eyes
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.
