🐇 Experiment Number 4 🐇
Ryan the Ravager Rabbit (once called Experiment Number 4) is one fierce mercenary and with the help of his robotic arm and an endless array of explosives can help in any tough situation given the right compensation. Just don't comment on his small size. You don't want to mess with this battle bunny!
Here is a build inspired by a random post I saw on IG one day and is for the monthly challenge build for my RLUG, Sacramento Brick Builders @sac_bb
After much hard work this literally crashed right before the first photo (something some of my fellow AFOLs can relate to). Thankfully I was able to rebuild what was essentially the worst crash I've ever had with a build so if the photos aren't the best, it is because I had to rush to capture what I could just in case. Unfortunately the bunny is not as stable as he was prior to his fall. I must have missed a piece or two to be honest.
Anyway, hope you enjoy this battle bunny build! -Steven

There has to be an experiment going on that they forgot to tell us about. Some test that we're unaware of but are supposed to pass. In the last year we've had a professional football team go winless, a mayor removed from office, our largest industry on life support and needing a government bailout, houses reduced to selling for 1 penny, Tiger Stadium was finally destroyed, the number of abandoned houses approached 100,000, unemployment was between 18 and 50% depending on who's statistics you looked at, a staggering estimated 30,000 homeless people ( determined by the post office ) , and Detroit's population decreased for the 52nd year in a row. Surely this is a bad joke, right?
FOV: 6" wide.
This experiment was an attempt to recreate the fluorescence of chromium activated corundum (aka 'ruby'). Aluminum hydroxide was mixed with 1-4 drops of Cr(III) oxide in a basic solution. This was placed on a small amount of aluminum sulfate in an aluminum foil container and a bit of water was added.
The sample was then heated, first with a propane torch until the water was removed and then with a MAPP gas torch until the aluminum sulfate expanded into foam, trapping the aluminum hydroxide which was calcined into aluminum oxide by the torch's flame. (at least that was the plan)
Shown also is a natural ruby from Mysore, India.

Key:
WL = White light (halogen + LED)
FL = Fluoresces
PHOS = Phosphorescent
BL = 450nm, GR = 532nm
UVa = 368nm (LW), UVb = 311nm (MW), UVc = 254nm (SW)
'>' = "stimulated by:", '!' = "bright", '~' = "dim"

Not my usual, I really do perfer taking pictures of pretty things. But I noticed this tiny ray of light across the studio floor and thought to myself what could I do with that tiny little ray of light and this is what I came up with... and I was just having a bit of fun with textures today!!! Off to watch some hockey be back later tonight to check up on all your amazing work!!
i am experimenting with a certain style of sbl mouth, after i fell in love with a YJ custom,....well, it isn't exactly what i wanted, though i am more or less happy with the results.
Still deciding about this girl's future (initially, my own sbl)

CC: And you are sure this is going to work Doctor?...
Doctor: With this serum injected in his bloodstream, Flint will be at your command . He will be a killing machine with total loyalty to Cobra. We can't use him as a spy, his mind will have deteriorated like the Toxo-Zombies, but he can be used as a decal. The Joes will be ripped to shreds before they realise what a monster their former field commander has become....
CC: excellent work Doctor. If this experiment proves succesfull, we'll supply you with more specimens...
Just me, a little self portrait using my ring light in a different manner. Also had a flash hooked up to give it that extra oomph. Not bad to say I only had about 6 feet of space to get this.
The Proton Pagoda at Fermilab. Stacked from 101 20 second images
Opened in 1976, The proton Pagoda housed a control room for overseeing experiments in the Proton area.
The double helix staircase in the center of the structure was inspired by the structure of DNA.
LOTS more on the history of the Pagoda and the Proton Area on the Fermilab site.
Today I experimented a combination of things... This little bird was the result.
I used watercolors, white acrylic ink and carbon ink in a mixture of "styles"
Experiments in crochet, using the fibonacci sequence as a base for the patterns.., please let me know what you think
Image 2 of 4. These are acrylic beads, the kind used in aquariums and such. The four scenes are positioned exactly the same. I merely changed the lighting. You can see how different the view and details revealed by the changes. Random Stuff 039
A train ride with the Intercity Direct to Rotterdam. Tunnel vision.
Treinreis met de NS Intercity Direct naar Rotterdam. Tunnelvisie.
Was trying to do a very specific idea that i realized quickly wasn't going to work. This was one of the first test shots for exposure and whatnot
Again it was for experimental nothing much. But if I want to reshoot this image It would tell a story, to begin with, and change it from portrait to landscape. And I only liked the sunrise.
