Being a glutton for punishment, I decided to sneak outside to take some pictures of Dark World Thor, a movie that apparently most people hated, whereas I loved. i'm guessing it had something to do with the story line?
Anyway, Thor arrived to me during a period of transition between hobbies, and I guess I just never got around to taking any decent photos of the figure whatsoever.
Being an older figure, clearly the sculpt shows signs of age, although to be fair, it was still in use until Roadworn Thor, give or take a few blonde highlights. As always, the likeness is there.. ish, but always is off the mark in some shape or form. In this case, I feel its the shape of the lower jaw, giant forehead, and the shallowness of the cheeks that are mainly responsible for throwing off the accuracy. Oh, that and the fact Thor is a Brunette here.
Detailing on the outfit is superb as always, but doesn't allow the poor guy to do any real posing, particularly with regards to its upper body, which isn't really done any favours by the arms, which as you may recall came in two flaours of rubber - unarmoured or battle ready.
Mjolnir is die cast, and as a result causes further posing restrictions due to weight of the thing, but at least it looks pretty.
Overall, he looks badass in a museum pose with his hammer in hand
Famous Glutton Street of Muar
Our ritual for every Chinese New Year is to stop by at this famous eating place when we first arrive in Muar. Otak-Otak, is my favorite and the most I look forward to eat! It's delicious :)
Love the food in Muar but not the heat!
The footpath crosses the infant River Dove here at this ford. The peak in the background is Parkhouse Hill, a reef knoll.
Yup. He's a glutton. The bread was for the birds.
BTW - he'd just eaten a pile of hot chilli coated chicken. Daft mog.

This little glutton is totally covered in pollen - to the point he nearly blends into the flowers he is pillaging. He has help (other bees) and they are really packing in the pollen (and we win when the honey ends up in the market).
I built a flash diffuser out of two 24 ounce styro cups, lined with foil on one side to reflect the light outward.
I mounted them enwise onto a Vivitar 283 flash unit with a flash trigger sensor on it, and mounted a small Vivitar flash on camera facing straight up to trigger the remote unit without affecting the exposure.
These shots were taken in bright sunlight at f/11-f/16 @ 1/160sec.

Encuantro organizado por el equipo iNNoVaNDiS y The Glutton Club
Coincidiendo con el dÃa de San ValentÃn, el resto de generaciones que ya han pasado por el programa, les dieron la bienvenida al programa en un evento organizado en colaboración entre iNNoVaNDiS y The Glutton Club. Reunidos en la CofradÃa Vasca de Gastronomia (La Gastronómica), más de setenta iNNoVaNDeRS tomaron parte en una dinámica de speed connecting. Seguidamente y de la mano de Kevin Patricio (La Madame) asistieron a una master class en inglés sobre Creatividad y su aplicación al mundo de la coctelerÃa. Posteriormente y por equipos, los iNNoVaNDeRS idearon diferentes cócteles que pasaron por el exigente jurado compuesto por el mismo Kevin asà como por los salseros Xavier de la Maza y Andoni Munduate. Y todo ello amenizado por la música del dj e iNNoVaNDeR Alex Del Toro.
Looks friendly, but is not...

The wolverine (also spelled wolverene), Gulo gulo (Gulo is Latin for "glutton"), also referred to as the glutton, carcajou, skunk bear, or quickhatch (from East Cree, kwiihkwahaacheew), is the largest land-dwelling species of the family Mustelidae. It is a stocky and muscular carnivore, more closely resembling a small bear than other mustelids. A solitary animal, it has a reputation for ferocity and strength out of proportion to its size, with the documented ability to kill prey many times larger than itself.
The wolverine is found primarily in remote reaches of the Northern boreal forests and subarctic and alpine tundra of the Northern Hemisphere, with the greatest numbers in Northern Canada, the U.S. state of Alaska, the mainland Nordic countries of Europe, and throughout western Russia and Siberia. Its population has steadily declined since the 19th century owing to trapping, range reduction and habitat fragmentation. The wolverine is now essentially absent from the southern end of its European range.
There were something like 4 stalls within the same area selling otak-otak... we tried 2 of the busiest stall and this stall - known simply as Nice Food - made the best otak-otak!
