Feisty Sea Captain, Captain Archibald Haddock.
Check out the Album for plenty of Tintin minifigures and vehicles.
Rocket made for the display "Space Panic" at the french convention Brick à Dole 2017.
The theme of the display being the "Space", it was obvious to make a reference to Tintin and his famous rocket.
Basically, I took the form, the color, the 3 "legs" of the Tintin rocket.
I voluntarily modified the top of the rocket with a cockpit to get close to the spirit "Lego Space"
Minifigs Tintin, Captain Haddock and Snowy are relatively faithful to the comic.

HADDOCK is one of the super A.I. developed by the United Nations to have a total human behaviour. He's strong, confident and adapts very easily to its surroundings, making him manipulative. His specialities are oceans and wrestling.
During the "breach opening", he decided to follow the A.I. and to build all by himself a full mechanical body. He planned to join the evil A.I. since the beginning but was aware humans would react quickly and stop them all. So he decided to build himself during nights and at slow pace, then waiting in a hideout to destroy his first big enemy: a buff A.I. from Australia...
...
Here's KOALA's rival, sort of... While KOALA leads the good A.I., HADDOCK serves as one of the most dangerous minions of the other team. Also the name's choice is a tribute to Patrick Béthune, a french voice actor who passed away last year and who interprets Captain Haddock in the Tintin movie by Spielberg. He was also a regular voice actor for Russell Crowe and Robert Redford.
See ya!

Exterior wall of the outbuilding with the Tintin exhibition at the Château de Cheverny, Cheverny, Loire Valley, France.
Some background information:
The Château de Cheverny is a stately home located at Cheverny, in the département of Loir-et-Cher in the Loire Valley. It is one of the châteaux of the Loire valley and a prime example of early Baroque architecture. The commune of Cheverny has more than 1,000 residents and is situated about 10 km (6.2 miles) southeast of the town of Blois.
In 1315, Henry Le Mareschau was the owner of Cheverny. He was a member of the low nobility under the count of Blois. In the late 14th century, Cheverny was sold to Jean Hurault with its "houses, presses and vineyards". His grandson Jaques gained the title, Seigneur de Cheverny, having served under the kings Louis XI, Charles VIII and Louis XII and gained the governorship of the county of Blois under king Francis I.
The château was built at the beginning of the 16th century either by Jaques or his son Raoul. In 1510, Raoul applied for permission of the king to fortify the new house. Later the lands were purchased by Henri Hurault, Comte de Cheverny, a lieutenant-general and military treasurer of Louis XIII, whose descendant, the Marquis de Vibraye, is still the present owner. Only a portion of the original fortified castle possibly remains in existence today. It is somewhat of a mystery, because to the present day there is no reliable way to prove whether or not a certain section is part of the original building. The interiors were completed by the daughter of Henri Hurault and Marguerite, Marquise de Montglas, by 1650, employing several craftsmen from Blois.
Lost to the Crown because of fraud to the State, it was donated by King Henri II to his mistress Diane de Poitiers. However, she preferred Château de Chenonceau as her place of residence and hence, sold the property to the former owner's son, Philippe Hurault, who rebuilt the château completely between 1624 and 1630. The reconstruction was conducted according to plans of the sculptor-architect of Blois, Jacques Bougier. His design at Cheverny recalls features of the Palais du Luxembourg in the French capital of Paris.
During the next 150 years ownership passed through many hands, and in 1768 a major interior renovation was undertaken. Required to forfeit much of their wealth at the time of the French Revolution, the family Hurault sold the property in 1802,but bought it back again in 1824, during the Restoration under Charles X, when the aristocracy was once again in a very strong political and economic position.
In 1914, the owners opened the château to the public, being one of the first families who took this then unusual step. The de Vibraye family still operates the Château de Cheverny, which has remained a top tourist attraction till this day. It is renowned for its magnificent interiors as well as its collection of furniture, tapestries and objets of art.
It is also wortth mentioning that the popular Belgian comic book authorr Hergé has memorialized Château de Cheverny in his famous comic book series "The Adventures of Tintin". In this series Hergé used Château de Cheverny as a model for his fictional "Marlinspike Hall" (in French: "Château de Moulinsart"), which is the country house and family estate of Captain Haddock, a main character in the comic books. In these books the two outermost wings are not present, but the remaining central tower and two wings of "Marlinspike Hall" are almost identical with the central tower and the wings of its model Château de Cheverny.
Today, there’s even a Tintin exhibition in one of Château de Cheverny’s outbuidlings, whose entrance you can see on this picture. The inscription on the top sign next to the entrance means "Château for sale", while the inscription on the bottom sign means "The château is not for sale any longer. Haddock". By the way, the man in the window on the right side is Captain Haddock while the other one is Tintin.
Since 2000, the Château de Cheverny belongs to the UNESCO Word Heritage Site "The Loire Valley between Sully-sur-Loire and Chalonnes" with its many breathtaking châteaux. Altogether there are more than 400 of them in the Loire region.

Böker Special Run Haddock Zirconium folder.
Only 199 pieces world-wide.
CPM S35VN blade. Zirconium Handle. Titanium framelock system.
Zirconium is a very high density metal and is a refractory material. Although it is not so hard as diamond, zirconium has almost twice as higher density.
Thanks to its strength Zirconium is mainly exploited in the extremely high temperatures environment. It does not absorb neutrons, so more than 90% of zirconium is used in nuclear reactors and nuclear submarines. Zirconium metal has also a very high resistance to corrosion by acids, alkalis and seawater.

Seen from the Pine Mountain Ridgeline Trail of the Sespe Wilderness in Los Padres National Forest in Ventura County California, the cloud and fog cover over the ridfgeline and Sespe River Valley burned off but a cloud and fog layer persisted over the Pacific Ocean and the coastal area and the Oxnard Plains, providing a unique and beautiful visual view.
