It's Eric Joisel's Dwarf

This is first boxpleating model I've folded.

Folding to base: Easy

Modeling: Intermediate or advanced :P

Didn't make the moustache because I think it looks better without it :)

Hope you like it.

Btw on some pictures you can noticed I used tons of glue(like I was painting with glue) for modeling...

Dwarf Yaupon Holly is a small evergreen shrub. It can grow in full sun to shade and will grow to about 3 feet tall and wide. Its growth is very compact and will stay in a nice shape without pruning. This plant makes a nice hedge along the foundation of a house or anywhere a short hedge is needed.

Flowers are like redheads, every time I think I'm done another one entices me and before I know it I'm getting my camera out again.

 

Several years ago I planted daffodils (Narcissus) in my front yard and I love them cause when they bloom I know spring is right around the corner, they bloom before anything else. So a couple of weeks ago they were all in their glory and looking like yellow awesomeness. But the blooms don't last long and now they are shriveled up and looking sad. BUT!..I got home yesterday and notice an odd bit of yellow in a spot where there really shouldn't be and when I took a closer look I found it to be a dwarf daffodil growing under my crepe myrtle among all the garlic that is planted there. I've never seen a daffodil so small and I'm totally baffled as to how this thing came about. Now I have to be really careful when I pick my garlic (I use the shoots like green onions and of course the bulbs) cause daffodil is poisonous. That would suck!

 

Mid 70's here today, yeah baby! Way too nice to be working inside...

view L to see the inset shot...gives you a good idea just how small this little flower is.

 

Dwarf lupine looks very similar to it's lower elevation relatives- just much smaller! Due to the extreme conditions it grows in, this flower is never able to grow as large as other varieties. This example was photographed on Second Burroughs Mountain trail, August 31, 2014. NPS Photo

I did not paint these dwarfs.

My first unit of twenty Dwarf Warriors (Clansmen) w/ shields is finished. Will up them to forty in the future but this have to do for now. Free hand on banner and the bases/movement tray has bits from the Underground-Empire Basing Kit.

Dwarf designed by Eric Joisel, folded by me from guided CP, with an approx 50cm lokta. The result is 19cm.

 

I tried this time to dampen progressivly and harder for me, patiently. Even if i think the technic could be improved again, with a more pragmatic way to model & dampen simultaneously.

The most difficult part was to make it stand on his legs, cause the paper is heavy, pretty thick and limp, despite the use of MC.

These dwarf Rhododendron flowers come up early in the spring each year. Our reward for all the rain we get here in Western Oregon. :)

The diver dwarf (Tachybaptus dominicus) as its name suggests is the smallest of his kind and has the lowest range of distribution. Until recently one thought that this species resided solely in “Maderas del Carmen” during the winter but recently it was discovered, as shows the image, that also nests in the water bodies of the desert.

Small lilac (3' x 3') with fragrant purple flowers in spring. Drought tolerant, but foliage looks better when shrub is kept watered during hot summer months.

Strobist info: Bare SB700 aimmed downward into the center of the aquarium, 1/8th power directly in front of the camera.

Triggered with PWIII

Acrylic paints, NMM, no airbrush. I enjoyed painting this new dwarf very much

Dwarf Violet Iris (Iris verna) typically has an orange and white patch on each of the 3 falls.

With his wife out of house, he has all kind of nasty ideas what to do with the garden gnomes

A cheeky dwarf with a funny cap. Not good paper choice.

This pirate is little confused at moment. He is embattled by those dward pirates.

----------------------------------------

The dwarf hamsters represent a group of small hamsters in the genus Phodopus. Although they do not belong to this genus.

 

Campbell's Russian dwarf hamster (Phodopus campbelli) is a species of dwarf hamster. It was discovered by W.C. Campbell in 1902 in Tuva, an area that has historically been geographically linked with both China and Russia. The Campbell's dwarf is also native to the steppes and semi-arid areas of Central Asia, the Altay mountains, and the provinces of Heilungkiang and Hebei in Northeastern China.

 

This hamster is sometimes called Djungarian (or Dzungarian), or simply Russian, and often it is mistakenly labeled as a Siberian or Winter white Russian dwarf hamster, a closely related species of dwarf hamster. (See Winter White/Campbell's Dwarf Hybrids below.) In Tuva the species is called Pouched in the Tuvan language, referring to the well-known physical characteristic of most hamsters. There has been some debate over the classification of Campbell's dwarf and its closely related cousin, the Winter White, but now the two species are usually classified as Phodopus campbelli and P. sungorus, respectively. It has been claimed that the Campbell's hamster is less friendly in temperament (to humans) than the winter white and is consequently more likely to bite or nip, though of course temperament varies between different animals.

The ever-changing clouds of Everglades National Park never last long...within minutes these beautiful streaming clouds were gone. I like both the color and B&W version, but decided to post this version as something different for my stream. Looks better viewed large...
