I think I might keep using 0.6 I like the challenge of the lack of 0.7 parts. I apologize for forgetting who thought of the pistol grip idea using the WA2000 pistol grip cutting off the back end and placing a sight to help the transition.

And my first post is a jumping spider ( my favorite model for macro ).
Here in Spain, usually it takes me several weeks or even months to find a jumping spider but in the Philippines they are everywhere!

During the Cold War, the new Japanese Naval Self-defense Force built a series of large destroyers (Haruna and Shirane classes) which featured large hangars on the rear for up to three locally build Sea King Helicopters. Back then, protect Japan´s naval routes from hostile Soviet or Chinese submarines were the main mission of the JMSDF.
Although very capable and effective, these large destroyers could only take to sea a small number of Helicopters (3) when compared to a regular Aircraft-carrier which reduced their combat potential. Proposals for a true Anti-submarine Helicopter carrier were made but refused.
However, with the end of the Cold War and the recent increased in size of the Chinese Navy, (and since Helicopters continued to prove to be the best ASW weapon for a ship), a decision was made to develop a much larger anti-submarine ship.
However, this would lead to a series of political problems.

Jack Storm - The Island is a LEGO webcomic created by my good friend and LDD magician Pixel Fox. The first episode of this "Nate Drake meets Indiana Jones" story, can be viewed in its entirety here. I can't recommend it enough - read it, you'll be blown away.
This other scene takes place in a cave inside a volcano... Jack Storm (in blue) and Harvey are looking for an artefact - the guardian mask - but they are about to discover that as the name suggests, the item is well guarded!
Some alternate angles are visible on Joe Meno's Flickr - here, here, and here (Thanks Joe for the pics!).
Big thanks to my wife who built the lava texture.
