Here are some group photos of the dolls from the Disney Designer Doll Collections. Here is the compete collection of the Disney Fairytale Designer Collection Doll Sets. Included is the exclusive D23 Snow White and the Prince set. They are all fully deboxed and put back into their original display stands. The covers and cardboard backing have been taken off, so the dolls are fully visible from all angles.
This was just what I needed, a complete pampering and lovely makeover and photo session.... huge thanks to the fantastic JoJo and Tim/Tamara from FourthSpace, a brilliant makeover service and such lovely and friendly people. (www.thefourthspace.com or their flickr account at www.flickr.com/photos/thefourthspace.)
So what do you think about the new look? More pics to come from this session... don't worry, I won't subject you to all 350 though :)
The Fyra brand is a joint venture between HS HiSpeed (itself a collaboration between NS and airline KLM) and the Belgium national rail operator SCNB/NMBS. It has been the subject of some unfortunate publicity recently with the alleged failure and subsequent rejection of the Italian-built V250 high speed trains intended for the flagship Amsterdam-Brussels service. Quite what the outcome of this will be remains to be seen but, meanwhile, domestic services continue between Amsterdam and Breda in the Netherlands using conventional locomotive-hauled stock. There are no Vectrons (yet) but, as this fictional image shows, they would look good in Fyra livery. Thanks again to Maarten Otto for the source image (26-Sep-13).

This is looking at my "backyard" near the end of a rainfall. If you look carefully, you can see a complete 2nd rainbow above the main one. It was an awesome scene!
If you understand how rainbows are formed, you will understand why the shadows are straight out in front of the camera, and why there is so little relief (shadowing) apparent on the ridge, especially in the center.
renovation of gyldenrisparken social housing, copenhagen denmark 2005-2012.
architects and engineers: a collaborative effort by vandkunsten, witraz & wissenberg.
original architects: svend fournais and hans ole christiansen, 1964.
I worked on the competition for this project back in 2005 and, seeing that prince charles is visiting the place today (no, really), I thought if it is good enough for him, it is good enough for you guys.
we have been through a few discussions here on how to treat our modernist heritage, not least the troubled post-war housing projects which have seen such social decline since construction, and so many practical problems too, all while bearing the brunt of modern migration and its consequences, a drama still unfolding. there is plenty to talk about.
in denmark, we rarely demolish social housing, favouring physical renovation in combination with local social work, but more often than not, the renovation effort is done in a sort of hostility towards the original architecture. we know better. not very likely.
in a way, defending 1960's plattenbau is about as backward as you can get in architectural conservatism, but the problem of what to do with these buildings, especially the ones that don't immediately call for the protection of their unique architecture, is one of the central questions of our trade these years.
elsewhere, most notably in britain, a number of related buildings, considered classics by some of us, are being torn down and their sites redeveloped with a much higher density, suggesting that the shrill debate surrounding their destruction is partly driven by financial interests - that this most important subject is the victim of spin, and not from the people directly involved.
neither approach seemed attractive and it was with some trepidation that we entered the competition for an overall plan for the 1964 gyldenrisparken area, including new facades, combining smaller flats into larger ones, a new nursing home, and a new kindergarten. how should we respond?
it was obvious from our first visit, that the original architects hadn't quite been the crooks "popular opinion" would have us think of that period's practitioners. the plans were good, the green spaces generous, the buildings well-proportioned. and the scale was humane. don't forget that copenhagen has just been through a horrid phase of 8 to 12-storey housing blocks in ørestad. none of that here.
the buildings we found, their exteriors in particular, were strangely devoid of details. anything that could be solved with pre-fab concrete was. balcony fronts were a single slab of concrete effectively blocking daylight from entering the flats. it is tempting to say that the architects were married to the concrete industry, but it is perhaps more correct that they were wedded to the idea of industrial production of architecture and that it occasionally got in the way of doing the right thing. but not always.
the available narratives did not fit. there were no victims, no perpetrators. no righteousness possible on behalf of the architects and, thankfully, no drama. plenty to be done, though.
and so, we proposed that the original architecture be respected; that after insulating the houses to a high, modern standard, we reclad them in white concrete. and that the biggest changes were to happen at detail level. one image we used during our discussions was that, looking only at the concrete, these blocks could have been by jacobsen or one of the other masters working in the thirties or fifties - that, in a sense, we had to bring them back in time to a period of more refined detailing. we were looking for a way of not imposing on the architecture we found. you'll be the judge.
we won, by the way, and the work is almost complete. it has taken a while because the area of gyldenrisparken is large, as they liked it in the sixties. it is so large, in fact, that we were able to build a new nursing home and kindergarten there after clearing up secondary structures between the houses. we designed them as long meandering buildings that subdivide and qualify the green spaces.
all new construction was kept in two floors and clad in black wood for constrast and clarity. they have green roofs that retain rain water, and the kindergarten became our first passive house, done according to the strict, german passivhaus standards.
while this all sounds good, you have to wonder why the whole project was not done to those standards. ein passivhaus ist kein passivhaus, so to speak, but the copenhagen municipality wanted a showcase, nothing more, for COP 15, the failed climate conference they hosted in 2009. political tokenism at its worst, to my mind, and at its core one of the reasons COP 15 had to fail.
however, the filth of politics should not be allowed to detract from the work of decent people, and while the architecture of the gyldenrisparken renovation is so discreet as to be almost invisible (as in almost unpublished), there are other and better ways to measure its success. the rent remains low, meaning that people can stay on. there is no forced gentrification. yet the waiting list for future residents keeps growing. it used to take five months to get a flat in gyldenrisparken, it will take you five years now.

It was a pleasure to be asked by Inkygoodness to be part of their Totem installation for Pictoplasma in Berlin.This is a quick pic (including messy workroom) of the almost completed Totem. I'll post more pics and further details of the show soon.
I finally finished my free pattern. I like how it came out, tho I wish I had a better choice of floss colors! I can't seem to find my stash!
Finally done with my Endor MOC. It is 16' x 6', or 114 32x32 baseplates. No idea how much I have into it so please don't ask. Spent 1-1/2 tears constructing it. Guessing around 80,000 to 100,000 pieces. www.youtube.com/watch?v=FtPx7Fsk5qU&list=UUm1lyFs-8Hv...
End result: a soft pouch with three compartments, plus a pocket for the power brick. Keeps the dirt off your shiny white laptop and confuses potential thieves.

The exterior remodel finished on this Taco Bell a number of days ago. I believe the new building signage had not been up very long after I took this photo back on April 15, 2020. To me, this is a radically different look from what the exterior looked like previously, but again it's nice that at least a handful of the original traits were kept intact.

The first bus in the new Coastliner livery 15986 (YN64 XSO) has now finally had its missing bit of yellow swirl added, the map affixed to the rear and a subtle change to the brand name which is now '700 Coastliner', rather than 'Sussex Coastliner', probably because a third of the route is in Hampshire! This change had been preceded by bus stop flags receiving new '700 Coastliner' branding in the new style, so it's not really a surprise. 15983 (YN64 XSK) at least has also now been fully branded and has '700 Coastliner' branding all round, whereas 15986 still has 'Sussex' on the sides (which you can't see on the picture). It's also now been transferred to Worthing (ex-Portsmouth) and is seen here at Castle Square in Brighton. It's a Scania N230 with Alexander Dennis E400 bodywork. Looks good.
We started with a dusty old cabinet I had salvaged from the dump when we were stationed in Germany. The solid wood cabinet made several moves with us and served as a garage storage container for old paint and random garage-type items.
We sanded the cabinet, and painted it white.
The faucet and tee-towel holder is from a free wharehouse. The silver bowl (ie sink) is from my kitchen and the paint is leftover from when we painted our house.
About the only purchases for this project was the hardware and the wood for the backsplash.
Total project cost just under ten dollars.
I have finally decided to post these photos. I made them for a proposal for--well obviously for this set. Unfortunately, I was not aware that Star Trek is a restricted IP and that Lego would not allow the proposal to go public because of course, what would be the point?
There's no point in keeping the photos and description to myself though, especially with the work that went into them. Description below:
'Space: the final frontier. These are the voyages of the Lego starship Enterprise. Its continuing mission: to explore strange new worlds, to seek out new life and new civilizations, to boldly go where no minifigure has gone before.'
Thrown through a spatial anomaly to a universe of modular building bricks, the crew of Starfleet's famous flagship find themselves sitting on your desk! With around 1800 parts, this UCS scaled Enterprise-D from Star Trek: The Next Generation is lovingly detailed and mounts on an elegant display stand complete with dedication plaque. But the Enterprise-D is hardly the first ship to bear her name. Display the original Constitution class Enterprise from the 1960s TV classic alongside and at the same scale.
And of course, it isn't a Galaxy class starship without a separating saucer. With the secondary display stand--mounted with a Starfleet badge and the nanofigures of the main bridge crews of both the original series and The Next Generation--you can show off both the saucer and the stardrive sections at once! The nanofigures aren't just for display; act out some of your favorite scenes or make up your own story when you remove the saucer plates to access the main bridge.
Features:
-Prepare for saucer separation: When facing a highly dangerous threat, Captain Picard decides to split the saucer off into its own ship. With the secondary stand, you can mount the saucer and display it right alongside the stardrive section. Just swap the saucer for the battle bridge attachment and you suddenly have two ships!
-Control the action yourself: Remove the panel on the saucer section and access the main bridge. With the detailed nanofigures, the bridge crew is ready for anything. Place Data at Ops, Worf at Tactical, and Picard in his Captain's chair and 'Engage' at warp 6!
-Time for a temporal anomaly: Display the Constitution class Enterprise from the original series alongside its successor. Built to the same scale and detailed with a deflector array, impulse engines, and shuttle bay doors; you can command this highly swooshable starship on its five year mission of exploration and adventure.
-Assemble the senior staff: The nanofigures inlcude The Next Generation's Captain Picard, Commander Riker, Lt. Commander La Forge, Lt. Commander Data, Lieutenant Worf, Dr. Crusher, Counselor Troi, and the original series' Captain Kirk, Mr. Spock, Dr. "Bones" McCoy, Chief Engineer Scotty, Lieutenant Uhura, Lieutenant Sulu, and Ensign Chekov.
Built for play or display, these two starships are sure to be popular with all ages. Whether you are a young fan of great Lego sets, or a nostalgic collector of Star Trek memorabilia, please support this project and help us to bring the knowledge of the galaxy to everyone.
'Make it so!'
I’m sitting here on our balcony overlooking the Pacific Ocean listening to the waves come crashing in as I write my last 365 post. Today is the day! I finished my 365 in Oregon! A whole year has gone by, it’s amazing how fast time flies and then it’s over.
It’s been a year of learning and growing, a year of sharing life with those I would have never met had it not been for coming to Flickr and then coming across Project 365! and giving that a try.
I never imagined it to turn into what it did, sharing bits of my life whether it be joys, struggles, my faith or failures. I’ve felt blessed to be able to share these bits of my life with who ever came by and I’ve always wanted to be transparent in what I’ve shared and my sole purpose was that maybe, just maybe someone would come by who would need a word of encouragement or who needed to know that yeah we all struggle and fail at times but it’s okay…that’s how we learn and grow and give others opportunity to pick us up and dust us off. I’ve had my up days and down days through doing this project, it hasn’t always been easy, it’s been frustrating at times and my family has had to see me in my not so nice moods when things just weren’t working out. There were times when it became the dreaded word…”project 365.” But I think with anything in life there are the good times and the tough times but its how we manage our way through that with those we love. I must confess I have not always done that gracefully as I’ve written about in numerous posts ;-) I think though as I neared the end I broke through some of that.
So though my husband has taken the brunt of my not so nice attitudes at times, he has been my greatest source of encouragement and I’m thankful for that. He has cheered me on, he has spoken those words “that’s it, you’ll just have to make do with what you’ve got,” he has driven me places, helped me and even shown his face in a number of shots. He has wanted to see me complete this and not just because at times he was sick of it :-) but because he wanted me who can start so many things and not finish them to accomplish this one thing to the fullest. My kids have also been a blessing to me in this, they’ve been excited to see what picture I took or what I wrote and they’ve allowed me to show their faces as well in some of my shots. My friend has also been a great source of encouragement…she would say to me “I’m watching your back” as she followed my stream. And my parents and other family members too, they’ve been excited about this project and that has blessed me. It’s funny how when I started I was scared to tell anyone about it because I thought is this a waste of time and what will they think of me spending all this time on this project, but over the year I’ve been able to break out of that.
I’m also thankful to each of you who have encouraged me along the way, who’ve cheered me on and who’ve spoken words of wisdom…it has meant a lot to me and I’ve felt blessed to be a part of your life here on flickr. I even had the exciting opportunity of meeting one flickr friend. It’s kind of a bittersweet feeling to be finished because it becomes so much a part of your daily life but life changes, seasons come and go and so now I am off to enter a new season, not sure exactly what it will look like but I’m sure over time it will unfold.
So today I end with a jumping for joy shot on the Oregon coast as the waves come crashing in, yes my eyes aren’t fully open (I’m winking at you all) but my smile expresses the joy I wanted to convey. It was fun and it was freeing. I had written my words in the sand, did a few shots and then the water came rushing in and washed my words away as the tide was rising and so I had to move in closer to shore and write my words in the sand a second time. Then after I had finished my jump shots I just stood there and watched as the words were washed away by the rising tide a second time...I thought it fitting as it was my final shot.
365 Complete!
