A spider web is a true marvel of nature. The animals connect several widely spaced points with thin, elastic silk threads.
The flying thread that results from this procedure consists of a bundle of 50 to 60 individual threads, each of which is just 250 nanometers thick. That's 200 times thinner than a human hair. Due to its special structure, even a small gust of wind is enough to set the flying thread in motion. With the first movements, the spider releases more and more thread from its spinnerets, until the flying thread gets stuck somewhere. However, a spider cannot influence the direction in which the flying thread is carried, it depends solely on the wind direction.
The spider proceeds systematically and routinely when setting up the entire orb network. The construction of a new cycle network takes between 20 and 30 minutes, depending on the size. The flying thread of a horned garden spider can be up to 50 centimeters long. Since spiders are mostly loners and cannibalistic catch and eat their own kind, they are usually careful not to get in the way of other webs and spiders when stretching a new web.However, there are exceptions, such as what is probably the largest spider web in the world discovered by researchers in September 2018. It wasn't a single one, but a 300-meter stretch of coast in the Greek lagoon city of Etolikos was completely enshrouded in spider webs. A large number of favorable conditions had prompted the so-called Strecker spiders to create this unusual web network.
By the way: Researchers discovered what is probably the largest web ever made by a spider in Madagascar in 2009. Caerostris darwini ("Darwin's bark spider"), which is only 20 millimeters in size, builds webs that reach across rivers. The bridge thread can reach a length of up to 25 meters.
Yes, this is a real character. Look it up.
I've had this figure complete for some time but never got around to posting it.
Something I've been wanting to do for a while but never got around to it. That thing I wanted to make was a X-Men: Evolution Magneto. I recently came across a small statue of his appearance in Evolution and I knew that this was my chance to make the figure.
This is probable one of my favorite character designs so I'm super happy with how this figure came out, but enough of what I think. Let me know what you think about this. :D

The 'Marvel' is returning home to Blackwattle Bay in Sydney, having just escorted a giant cargo vessel out of Sydney harbour.

This was a bit of a side trip that we shot on our way to Proxy Falls. Sadly, Proxy was closed because there was a fire nearby. I had been wanting to visit here with a camera for a long time. I love the tunnel effect you get here. Just a simple river image, but fun nonetheless. Let me know what you think.

Found this rose a few weeks ago in a park in Cobourg.
The star of my newest volume of Deadpool. Considering you'll only see him in the black and white tint, I decided to give you a look at him in full color... well half color anyway.

L to R - Bruce Banner, Black Panther, and Fantomex.
Bruce Banner - Made the pants purple to make it consistent with the big fig.
Black Panther - Pretty sure this is just my old figure with a new cowl. (I think)
Fantomex - Had this figure sitting around for a while but never got around to posting it because I didn't have other figures to go along side it. I still don't really, but whatever...
The first person I showed this image to commented how it looked like it could have been from a Marvel movie. I kind of agree.

So I needed to empty out my box of Marvel Legends tonight. I needed to get pictures of Iron Fist, Sasquatch and Maestro. Most of these were at the bottom.
I don't just tip the box out willy nilly and let them get bashed around, I carefully unpack it and stand the marvels up one by one.. these have been re-arranged slightly, but not to the stage where they are in a dramatic scene or shot. I was quite taken back at how many I have, this doesn't include the figures I have from the HML series or the Fantastic Four Box Set. See the Tags list for the figures or characters in this picture.
Not sure how the Swanson Schoolhouse has managed to survive. I've visited it before, and even peeked inside at it's bird ravaged interior. This time I just gazed at it and marveled at it's fortitude in the grip of loneliness and decay under a canopy of puffy clouds.

Sometimes I just get on a kick to paint some superheroes. This is one of those times. Here's Ms. Marvel.
Starhawk: Sorry Sly, you are not a weirdo, but the other two. Had the figure waiting to be photographed since I saw Vol.2. Now his time has come. Oh there is guy tagged: Superdaft1 he also had some great ideas for Starhawk so check him out.
Wanda: Actually I wanted to use this body for my Netflix Eletra, but I don't have the perfect head yet.
Vision: Maybe a after IW design. They'll definitely bring him back.

Here is my 49th installment to my Marvel Figures
Left to Right
Silk: Made her a bit more accurate with more detailed parts.
Chase Stein: I finally ditched the construction paper jacket thanks to the stranger things set
Captain Britain: It was suggested to use Spider-Man's arms, so that's what I did, I also switched out the helmet for Flash's cowl
Forge: Completely redesigned him, I might take off the red belt because the two belts look off
Gorgon: Very proud of this guy, I will post an inhumans pic once I find good parts for Crystal
