A group of steam driven fighters inspired by the movie Steamboy from Katsuhiro Otomo.
A bit of the story behind these planes is that they were invented in the future, after an industrial apocalypse caused the common people to have to revert back to the more pure power of steam, and the technology was advanced like never before. The rebel factions trying to overcome the Industrial Empire quickly invented chambers capable of highly compressing steam beyond any limit known before, and invented the fighters capable of utilizing this new power. They are equipped with steam hoses leading to jets on the back for extra speed, as well as normal props to assist in take off. I hope you all enjoy the pictures.
while waiting for the models we had quick shoot with friend Marc, who happens to be a MMA fighter, photographer, and magician.

We visited this girls owner last weekend, where I was photographing the ceiling tiles in the hon-do (main building of worship) that were hand painted by the parishioners over a hundred years ago.
I learned her story:
When she was a tiny kitten, she had fallen through the floor boards at one of the shrines in the area, and her head got stuck. She dangled there for what they suspect was days, until her new owners children heard her mewing for her life on their way to school. Since this is *very* rural Japan, they didn't expect her to even survive until they could get her to a vet days later. Her skull had been crushed from dangling there and struggling for such a long time, and she was very dehydrated and lost a lot of blood from where it had caved in.
But fight she did, and proved she's a survivor. She's nearly a year old now, and the sweetest thing you can imagine, and has the whole of their temple grounds to play in.
born William Ward in Norfolk VA
American boxer
"Norfolk was a short and stocky fighter who was quick and powerful; He possessed a natural instinct for fighting and took on all-comers, large or small; In a career of 103 bouts, he lost just 15 - against top-flight, world-class competition; The "Kid" is one of the super, over-looked fighters in boxing history who should have had a title shot but never received it
During his career, he defeated such men as Harry Greb, Billy Miske, Battling Siki, Jeff Clark, "Tiger" Flowers, Lee Anderson, Jack Blackburn, Arthur Pelkey, "Big" Bill Tate, Tom Cowler, George Robinson, Dan "Porky" Flynn, Clay Turner, Black Fitzsimmons, Jamaica Kid, John Lester Johnson and James "Tut" Jackson."

U.S. Air National Guard Airmen from the 169th Fighter Wing at McEntire Joint National Guard Base, South Carolina, along with family and friends held a memorial service, August 8, 2020, to remember Maj. Richard 'Guns' Garin, a pilot with the 157th Fighter Squadron. Garin passed away on July 28 after a valiant struggle with a sudden, severe medical complication. Garin enlisted in the SCANG in 2002 as a life support technician while attending the University of South Carolina. After graduating in 2006, he was competitively selected for an F-16 fighter pilot position. A veteran of multiple combat tours to the Middle East, Garin dedicated his life to the service of others.

View from the 356th Fighter Group, N. Canton, Ohio
"The 356th Fighter Group is the area's only authentic WWII restaurant dedicated to the heroes of the war. The 356th Fighter Group was an actual airborne team that saw combat in the European Theater. Three squadrons of planes (the 359th, e60th, & 361st) made up the 356th Fighter Group. These pilots flew the P-47 Thunderbolt and then the famed P-51 Mustang while escorting the B-17 Bombers across the English Channel to safety. This group was stationed at the Martelsham Heath Airfield in Suffolk, England. The 356th Fighter Group completed a total of 413 combat missions. It is to these brave and courageous men that we dedicate our restaurant."
How I spent most of my Saturday. I wanted to build a minifig-scale air/space fighter that was as small as possible while still looking "fly-able". The wings fold over the top for an even smaller profile. Gonna finish the cockpit and play around with different colors as soon as a couple Bricklink orders come in. Hopefully, I'll be using several of these little guys in a larger upcoming project. Hint: carrier.
By the year 3500, the Octan company had moved on from producing gasoline for vehicles, and on to producing fuel for spaceships. A factory world was set up, and Octan Defense Fighters were produced to defend the planet from invasions. Though each fighter is virtually useless on it's own, in swarms of several hundred, they can completely destroy a star cruiser in under a minute. Each fighter has 8 light power laser cannons mounted in the wings.
