For anyone interested, a breakdown of the main components. I would love to see further iterations, so please feel free to build your own version!
Feel free to ask questions or comment.
Icon of speed and beauty in 1. Designed specifically to win the Le Mans 24-hour race, the slippery D-Type was produced by Jaguar Cars Ltd. between 1954 and 1957. Sharing the straight-6 XK engine and many mechanical components with its C-Type predecessor, its structure however was radically different. ... D-Types won Le Mans in 1955, 1956 and 1957, The high point was '57 when they finished 1rst, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and 6th.......kindly letting a Ferrari slip in at 5th. And these were all private entries, as Jaguar had ceased factory racing. Amazing car in every mechanical and ascetic way!!
That day, although rich in all the features which humans deem typical components of a fine, clement weather, turned out rather badly for us, in a mysterious fashion to boot. Whether it was the three giant solar flares, the radiation of which was later reported to have reached the Earth precisely when we were out in the open, or some other design — this is as yet hard to tell. The fallout was a nauseating, hangover-like headache like after some sort of poisoning, and an overpowering desire to sleep persisting over the following couple of days...

Tres componentes en unos tonos que personalmente me encantan y creo que acordes con los gustos de mi As, desde luego hechos con todo mi cariño y pensando en ella. Estan montadas con rocalla de 8,11 y 15 en varios tonos y tupis de 4 y de 3. Muchas gracias a todas. Besitos
A component from inside one of my son's computers is amazing to me how something unseen can look quite attractive ( to me anyway) the sky blue color slightly reflects in the metal.
MFW deciding what to post next.
Component elements for a commissioned project. The build itself is finished, but want to bring it back into the shop for some decal work before publishing.
Got a couple other finished builds waiting on similar glow-ups - people on the Mecabricks side know what I'm referencing. ;)
It's been a very arduous year, with few opportunities for personal activity, but made it through to the finish line. No light at the end of the tunnel? Simple solution. Blast your way out.

Due to 7470 being down for maintenance this year's annual Mass Bay RRE's 'Steam In The Snow' charter on the Conway Scenic Railroad was instead billed as 'Covered Wagons In The Snow' and it did not disappoint. Having traveled as far as the Notchland Inn where four photo runbys were performed the two original Boston and Maine F7s (4266 and 4268) owned by the 470 Railroad Club are on their way back east with the train.
This route opened in 1875 as the Portland and Ogdensburg Railway and would remain an important through freight route for succesor Maine Central until 1983, known for most of its life as the Mountain Subdivision. Shuttered for a dozen years it was purchased by the State of New Hampshire from MEC Guilford Transportation in 1994 and revived by 1996 to become a wildly popular 25 mile extension of the little Conway Scenic.
This was the only true 'must have' shot I wanted for the day, and I couldn't be more pleased with how it turned out. They are seen at Sawyers River, MP 74.8, where fom 1877 to 1928 the 8 mile long Sawyers River Railroad (a logging operation) connected, although the MEC agency at this spot was closed in 1921. Two historic structures survive to this day, the section men's car house at right and the foreman's dwelling at left, both now privately owned. To the left of the train obscured by the snow is a 21 car passing siding that once again sees use in the summer season as a run around track. One interesting fact is that the house used to also be located on the right (north) side of the mainline but was moved across in the 1950s when Route 302 was relocated. Not wanting a private grade crossing here the railroad chose to move the home instead!
I now have good shots in three of the four seasons here, and a true spring one isn't really possible as the railroad doesn't run their first regularly scheduled Mountaineer train until May 27th.

As for the two classic EMDs, 4266 was built in Mar. 1949 and was acquired for preservation in 1981 off the Billerica deadline. Restored a couple years later, she has called North Conway home ever since and has been operational off and on for the past four decades.
4268 was built in Oct. 1949 and ran for the very first time in almost a half century in early 2022. I'm not sure when her last run was, but I can find no photos of her in service after about July 1974. She languished for a decade behind the Billerica shops after being stripped of all major components including prime mover, main generator and traction motors. In 1986 she finally left Billerica by truck after being acquired by George Feuderer who displayed her in a field in East Swanzey, NH until acquired by the 470 Club and trucked to North Conway in October of 1991.
She received a cosmetic restoration in 1993 and had been prominently displayed at the Conway Scenic in the company of her operational sibling ever since. After years of planning, the club began restoration in earnest in 2018 with the full support of the railroad and its shop using ex New Hampshire Northcoast GP9 1757 (ex PRR) as a major parts donor for the four year long restoration project.
Addendum: thanks to Carl Byron for supplying the fascinating historical information below that I'd never read about before.
The 4268A was actually built in March, 1949 as Engineering Test Dept Locomotive #930. Used for high altitude component testing on the DRGW's Soldier Summit among other locations. It spent some of that summer masquerading as a CB&Q locomotive leading their passenger car display at the 1949 Chicago World's Fair. It was then was cleaned up, re-engined, and made into to a standard F7A and offered for sale at a "slightly used demo" price. The B&M bought it and it was renumbered and painted into the B&M livery and shipped east, so while the builders plate may well say 10/49 but it certainly had a prior interesting career.

names of components
An idea inspired by Codey K.'s excellent BrickArms mods.
All components use a 1/16" pin and socket system and are held by friction.
The AK receiver has 5 holes to accommodate a butt stock, fore stock, mag, and two holes for scopes.
Proto parts have been injected, and parts will be available to hold and configure at BrickFair VA. See Codey for further details at the show.
Searching the shelves in our basement laundry/storage room, I came upon a little box of plastic, multicolored board game pegs. The game board that they belonged to was nowhere in site. Still, I instantly recognized them as pieces from a board game. While my wife and I both had vague recollections of playing a game with these pieces, neither of us could immediately dredge up the name of the game. Fortunately, with the help of a little internet sleuthing, we were finally able to pin it down to MASTERMIND.

Instax mini with KiiPix (not a camera). The KiiPix is basically a toy that uses Instax mini film to capture an image from a phone (So they think). In this case i basically squeezed my head into the device and added a lot of light :)
Did I do alright? Credit if used please, and also read the notes on the as well.

A NH90 of the Belgian Air Component's 40 Squadron sat beneath the lights at Koksijde AB, the distinctive rotor tip lights can be seen as a bright green strip across the image.
The NH90 NFH is capable of anti-submarine warfare (ASW) and anti-surface unit warfare (ASuW). However the primary role in Belgian service will be replacing the ageing Sea King fleet due to be retired in March 2019 as Belgium's search and rescue (SAR) platform, operating from Koksijde AB.

"short films – …and then we‘ll call it even"
In the silent arena of our minds, where thoughts dance like invisible actors, a profound equality among us all is revealed. These inner conflicts, which do not manifest themselves in the outside world, are the invisible threads that weave the fabric of human existence. They are the silent struggles that each of us, regardless of gender or external circumstances, wages in the depths of our souls. These inner struggles are not mere challenges, but essential components of human existence that initiate us into the mysteries of life.
Every person faces their own inner battles, which are unique in their intensity and significance. These psychological struggles cannot be compared, as they are an expression of each individual's journey through the depths of consciousness. They are the touchstones that shape us and lead us to explore the limits of our being. Overcoming these inner conflicts holds the possibility of growth, transformation, and enlightenment.
The pursuit of overcoming these inner struggles is a deeply personal and often solitary journey. It challenges us to look into the darkness within ourselves and find the glimmers of light that guide us. In this inner argument lies the chance to discover the essence of our being and strengthen the connection to our true self. Thus, these inner conflicts are not only tests, but also invitations to self-knowledge and spiritual development.

I kept this series practically closed as a self-portrait series for a very long time. I think it’s time to open it up and at the same time connect it to my overarching theme, the portraits.
As a rule, these are long exposure shots with exposure times varying between 2 and 30 seconds. In this case 4 seconds. They are series that deal with a range of human feelings and thoughts. They deal with desire, loss, regret and pain and the attempt to process all of this.
This is the stripped down model without accessories.

Electronic components have a number of electrical terminals or leads. These leads connect to other electrical components, often over wire, to create an electronic circuit with a particular function (for example an amplifier, radio receiver, or oscillator). Basic electronic components may be packaged discretely, as arrays or networks of like components, or integrated inside of packages such as semiconductor integrated circuits, hybrid integrated circuits, or thick film devices.
"man vs woman (complicated) relationship ".
A complicated relationship results when a partner isn't sure what they want or wants to part ways. A partner may have trouble communicating their feelings because they don't want to hurt the other. Understanding a complicated relationship includes learning potential problems contributing to the issue.
