Custom sharpie'd asymetrical tshirt dress by complex geometries, a design label based in Canada.
I love this dress and wore it till the hand-dyed garment suffered dinner stains. I proceeded to bury said stains with death by sharpie. Turned out ok for a quick fix, and totally get-down proof. Main garment view here.
The buildings on the former North London Line platforms were built in the early 1980s, when provision for passengers was very much meaner than it is now. These will all be swept away and replaced by much better facilities for the arrival of Crossrail services in 2018. The new station will comprise an island platform with two faces, capable of taking ten-car trains, and a light and spacious overline station building.
**********************************************************************
The Stratford to North Woolwich line was first opened in 1847 by the Eastern Counties Railway, at a time when the Silvertown area was undeveloped; the original route ran to the south of what is now Victoria Dock.
When Victoria Dock was constructed in the 1850s, a swingbridge was built to allow trains to cross the opening which allowed ships to enter the Dock from the Thames. However this would delay trains, so a new line was built to the north of the dock, with a station at Custom House. The original route was handed over to the Dock company, to be worked effectively as a private internal railway; although in the event of the new route being blocked the Eastern Counties Railway were permitted to use the old route free of charge.
When the adjacent Albert Dock was built in 1880 it incorporated a short-cut into Victoria Dock. Again a swingbridge was put in, but the Dock Company also put in a new tunnel, the Connaught Tunnel, to by-pass any delays. Once again the railway had the right to use the old route free of charge if the tunnel was blocked for any reason. During the 1880s short branch lines were added from Custom House to Gallions and Beckton; these little-known lines were used almost exclusively by freight, and by workers at the Docks and Beckton Gas Works. Little trace of these lines remains today.
With little other public transport in the Silvertown area, the railway did good business. However the first nail in the coffin was the construction of Silvertown Way in the 1930s; this was funded as a scheme to alleviate unemployment, and would eliminate level crossing delays for traffic heading to Victoria Dock. Trams had only ventured as far as Canning Town, but London Transport decided its trolleybuses would extend to Silvertown and North Woolwich via the new road. The heavy bombing of the Docks during the Second World War, and radical changes to the nature of trade thereafter, further contributed to the decline of the line. By the 1970s the service consisted of a half-hourly shuttle between Stratford and North Woolwich, and it looked set for closure.
However in 1979 the Greater London Council aimed to revive the line, and extended the service to Camden Road. New stations were constructed, and the existing stations were rebuilt, albeit in a very basic style with minimal facilities. In 1985 the line was electrified and incorporated into the North London Line, with trains running through from North Woolwich to Richmond.
It was the development of other railways in the area which finally killed off the North Woolwich Line. The Beckton line of the Docklands Light Railway opened in March 1994, but it was the coming of the line to King George V in December 2005 (since extended to Woolwich Arsenal) that rendered the old line redundant; services between Stratford and North Woolwich were withdrawn after 9th December the following year. Since then the route between Stratford and Canning Town has been reused by the Stratford International branch of the DLR (opened August 2011), whilst the section between Custom House and North Woolwich is being prepared for its new role as part of Crossrail's Abbey Wood line, due to open in 2018.
Here's my custom #26: Matilda! Her mom, who happens to be Maya's (my #25) mom decided to name her that after my daughter! how sweet?! Matilda's based doll is a UFO a Go Go Takara Blythe, and she was requested to have a little pout like my Michelle! She's all about exploring the outdoors regardless of the weather conditions and LOVES catching bugs, worms and all kinds of crawly creepers! She's having a blast before she returns to her home in Chicago!
Hope you enjoy her pictures!

92 honest-to-goodness rear wheel horsepower in a perfectly set-up package that weighs less than 300 pounds. Arguably the fastest DB1 in North America and likely the only one set-up for serious track day work.
Noted moto journalist, Chief Instructor at Yamaha Champions Riding School and Sport Riding Techniques author Nick Ienatsch rode the bike at Mosport last week and had this to say: "Buy it. My experience on Steve's DB-1 at Mosport couldn't have been more positive. He rolled it off the trailer Saturday morning, we rode the hell out of it all weekend, and he rode it back onto the trailer Sunday night. All Steve did was add gas. Bulletproof and extremely fun, surprisingly quick...probably the fourth-quickest lap time in the fast group at DOCC. The motor pulls strong, the bike sounds right and the chassis is sorted and composed at the limit. The problems? All the new sport bikes in the way during lapping!!"
The machine started out as a pretty tired and far removed from stock DB1 that was brought over from Europe by the previous owner and as such, it made an excellent candidate for a full-on hot-rod. The bike was completely stripped-down and I started on the process of renewing all the rolling chassis components and rebuilding the motor over a period of 22 months. The end result is an absolute riot on the race track – really sharp handling as would be expected with a platform as short as the DB1, but with excellent stability. With 93hp and 63ftlbs of torque, the little bike goes like a scalded cat. Given that the Montjuich cams are being used, I would have expected a more peaky delivery, but the Meyers Performance 790 kit beefed-up the bottom end significantly. As you can see by the dyno chart in the pics, peak torque is at 6,500rpm and there’s usable stuff as low as 5,500.
I’ve ridden the bike at the Ducati Owners Club events at Mosport in July 2013 and May 2014 as well as at NHIS in October 2013 - and have been amazed at how well the whole package worked at speed. The DB1 Is surprisingly comfortable and easy to ride fast – and absolutely gorgeous sounding. My log shows 6 hours of riding time on the motor and I just completed a full post-track day service.
Here are the specs on the build:

Top-end lubrication via cam end cover feed
Exact Fit timing belts
New Kokusan pick-ups
Aluminum & Titanium fasteners throughout
Dyno tuned to 93hp and 63ftlbs of torque (I terminated the pulls at 8,500rpm, so there’s more on tap)
Please check out the dyno pull videos at www.youtube.com/watch?v=_tVaaTTa3jA&feature=share&... and www.youtube.com/watch?v=w5hU55YhUYY&feature=share&... . Note that I was still fooling around with jetting in the first video, so you can see the stumble as the motor came out of the lower rpm range. The final jetting set up has the motor pulling cleanly from 4,000rpm. The 2nd video is one of the heat cycle sessions as I was breaking the motor in.

And finally, there are hi-rez copies of the pics used in this listing at: www.flickr.com/photos/loudbike/sets/72157634524192692/ To get to the hi-rez images, select one and then click on the icon in the lower right of the page (three white dots) and select view all sizes from the drop-down menu.
There are a few surface cracks developing in the bodywork that are most visible in the hi-rez pics (it’s inevitable; the bodywork is paper-thin except in the main support area between the four mounting studs).
This is a fully-sorted track bike that’s ready to go. Add gas, tickle the carbs, push the starter button and have at it!
This is a rare and unique machine. Consider that a standard DB1 in decent shape will fetch north of $19k: add 30 reliable HP, knock almost 60lbs off the curb weight, upgrade the wheels, suspension & brakes and you get a sense for what it would cost to build this machine. Reserve has been set accordingly.

This girl right here is the first SBL (mold) Blythe I customize, even though I normally don't work on them because of the reputation they have of being hard to open. Well she came to me and I decided to give it a try and I have to say I am in love with this mold (although I won't be commissioning any more SBLs I will definitely be working on this mold some more in the future).
The base doll is Superior Skate Date, she came to me in her original box but her hair was still matted and looked damage so she got the usual work plus a hair treatment and haircut :) 2 pairs of eye chips are from digital prints and 2 are hand painted by me.
She will be traveling to Germany soon! Special thanks to her mom for her trust and patience!
I hope you all love her!

I'm starting a new project customizing a BVS Superman action figure! The main reason for this is simple! Although I really like the BVS figure as a show piece also wanted to add a figure to my collection to be used in doll and action figure comics and stories! The BVS Superman however is very bulky and posing is limited! My plan is to customize a figure that falls somewhere between the MOS Superman and the BVS Superman! This may be a complete failure but I hope to at least learn some things from this process! The first step was to remove the suit and take a look at the body structure!
So basically, this figure uses the MOS body with added prosthetic pieces on the thighs and lats! The body is also painted silver! The figures ankles and foot pegs are shorter! Many complained about the height of the MOS figure because he wasn't compatible with other Hot Toys 1/6th figures!
The suit is made of a pliable synthetic material that is fairly elastic and fits the figure like a glove! It's also somewhat sheer so that the silver body beneath can be seen giving the suit a kind of sheen!
I'll continue chronicling my progress as I go and hopefully I won't completely embarrass myself with a big fat fail!
