Rounding out my tour of Mass Effect capital ships is the SR1 (again). This build is right around 5 feet which is just over 1.5 for the metrically inclined. Construction is mostly studless and was built from primary reference.
Build time was around 160 hours in about four weeks. Most of that was dealing with shaping issues on the fuselage and getting things to attach at the proper angles. As much as I love the ship design from Mass Effect, they really aren't Lego-friendly.
This was one of the main reasons I went to Southampton to check out the 1960s concrete architecture of Capitol House. Glad I went now, as it's currently being demolished with only the building remaining standing amongst a pile of rubble.
I was unable to get close to the building so had to resort to some images using the Fuji X 55-200mm zoom, this particular shot was taken from a busy roundabout a few hundred yards away!
Creative Collective Effect is a fashion show focusing on eco conscious clothing. Initiated by Creative Collective the show, featuring well known brands such as Nudie Jeans, took place during Stockholm Fashion Week. During the night, hip hop group Movits!, fresh back from a month long US-tour, gave a special performance...

Color Club - Worth The Risque
I sometimes wear this one by itself and sometimes as a base for other colors to give them more depth.
Mass effect's Omni Tool/Omni Blade re-imagined as a ring.
Surely one of the stranger ideas that has popped into my head. Wasn't quite sure if it was "good enuff" but the design has grown on me (especially after I got the more subdued steel version).
Made in Stainless Steel via Shapeways then hand painted by me.

I was very happy with the detail that I could see in the photograph that I took with a Hasselblad 500C/M CFV-50c camera and a 250mm lens of the full Moon on 20160721. Looking up at the Moon this morning, 4 days later, I decided that it would be fun to capture a series of photographs of the Moon as it waned over a two week period, weather permitting.
What immediately caught my attention when looking at this photograph was the way that the low angle of the light near the dark limb (i.e., lefthand edge) emphasized the nearby topographic features. Post-processing methods such as "Clarity" and "Sun Illumination" can be used to achieve this effect, but it is always more convincing and beautiful when Nature does it in the reality of the moment.
Now for some trivia ... This photograph shows the Moon at 77.5% full and a distance of 379,644km from Earth. I have a number of iOS apps that can supply this sort of information and so much more - e.g., Moon+ by CDV Concepts, Moon Phase+ by Peter Smith, etc.

Post-processing ...
Finder - Removed the CF card from the camera digital back and placed it in a Lexar 25-in-1 USB card reader. Then used Finder on my MacBook Air to download the raw image file (3FR extension) from the card.
Lightroom - Imported the 3FR image.
Lightroom - Used the Map module to add the location details to the EXIF header.
Lightroom - Then applied various lighting and color adjustments in the Develop module.
Lightroom - Saved the basic adjustments carried out in the Develop module as preset 20160708-001.
Lightroom - Exported the image as a JPG file with 8272 x 6200 pixels from the Library module.
PhotoSync - Copied the JPEG file to my iPad Mini for the final processing steps and posting to social media.
BigPhoto - Cropped the image and saved it as an image with 800 x 800 pixels.
BigPhoto - Resized the image by a factor of x4 and saved it as an image with 3200 x 3200 pixels.
Photoshop Fix - Used the spot Healing tool to retouch a number of sensor noise spots in the background regions.
Photoshop Express - Applied sharpening adjustments (75). Converted the image to Black and White (B&W). Saved the image.
Exif Editor - Copied the EXIF data from the Lightroom output image to the final image.
Saw these nice teasels when I pulled over to snap some nature shots on a beautiful morning in Ohio. Shot with an LG G Pad 7.0 tablet. Edited in PicsArt app w with the 'film' filter that I personally adjusted.

Probably the most rare car in my smudgy collection of pictures, this is the Lea Francis Leaf-Lynx which made it's debut at the 1960 Earls Court motor show. The show car was painted mauve and it was ugly, very ugly. This luxury sports car was powered by a triple S.U. carburettor Ford Zephyr engine and it had a tubular steel chassis. It could have had a sleek(?) hard top made of perspex, non of which were ever seen. This last flowering of the Lea Francis Motor Company, Much Park Street Coventry, never went into production. This one was photographed at a Lea-Francis owners club rally in 1971, it has a March 72 tax disc. It must survive in a collection somewhere although the DVLA have no record.

I built the Numode logo for my displaying in my studio window and at exhibitions : )
That's EL-Wire that sits behind the yellow outline however, it's effect is not as impressive as I had hoped : (
The gentleman tells me that dipping the semi-molten glass into a solution of baking soda creates the bubbles in the glass.

While reading my morning paper, I came across an advertisement that 1) The Goodman Studio has a glass blowing demo today; 2) there is an annual sale happening; and 3) the handmade-in-Toronto glassmaking studio is only 15 minutes away from my home in an industrial area.
The Goodman Studio doesn't sell direct to the public and the workshop isn't open to the public normally, so I grabbed my camera to have a look.
Built in 1913 in a Beaux-Arts Architectural style, this building was used until January of 1988 when Amtrak abandoned it. Located near Tiger Stadium in Downtown Detroit just off of Michigan Avenue in a district of Detroit called Corktown. This is THE main Icon of the Detroit Ruins, it was named a National Historic Building in 1975. This building has been featured in 4 movies recently: Transformers, The Island, Naqoyqatsi, and Four Brothers. I have modified this picture by greatly adjusting the contrast, which in turn added the blue tinge to the building.

On Tuesday I go to the outing of Religion, we went by the missionaries, we sang in the language of Congo, and we discussed about so many things. Then we entered into a museum of stuffed animals, bones, and so many fascinating and intriguing things, I was ecstatic. I took about ten photos, but I haven't my sweet camera, so I 've shot with a camera a bit 'poor...
Just ripples in a pond but i love the effect of the ripples in the water.

I was really excited over the weekend to find what is likely to be the last Snowy Owl I'll photograph until next winter while on the coast of Massachusetts.
The really cool thing about this owl, is that it is part of a tracking program called Project SNOWstorm. You can see the wire of the solar powered transmitter on the right side of the owls back in this photo. It doesn't seem to hinder or negatively effect the bird at all, and it provides information about the migration patterns of these owls as they come back and forth from the Arctic, where they spend the summer months.
Another photographer reached out and got confirmation that this Adult Male was relocated earlier in the season from Logan Airport.
Ultra SMAA-injection, 2x2 SS + 4x OGMS, no-HUD, free camera, tiledshot (3840p), custom FOV, plus a goooooood distance from any texture present in the shot.

First finished attempt to create as compact as possible 2-seater car using 2-seater detail (30149) back from Adventurers' theme. Idea came a year ago while playing with real bricks & now I returned to rethink first trials
The car was created to be stable. According to this placement of wheels the clearance can be lowered with one plate hight. I will test it in some streetracer tuned cars. But even so it's not enough to match the minifigure scale and car hight. We all knew that fact before. So I made the car's shape & ptoportions look like real to minimize this effect a bit
I haven't used LDD for half-year & was amazed with coming of new details. Finally this car was painted red to fit the really existing bricks (black & white also possible for this parts kit) but I liked medium/dark azur more
Hope for more such stuff to build)
