A heavily modified version of the Baron Prototype, the DASH Baron was made purely to compete in the Mecha Racing League. Designed to withstand a beating during races while still maintaining high top speeds, the DASH is definitely something you should watch out for in MRL.
Pilot: Baron Ishi
No one knows for certain if Baron Ishi is his real name or if he's even a human being but his patient yet deadly driving style has earned him a reputation in the league. Some say he's actually a cyborg with an advanced AI program designed by ARMaTech to drive their hulking speedster mech while others swear he's just a really cold human being, sick of piloting war machines and opts to drive a humanoid coffin at high speeds instead.
Special Ability: Shell Rush
Using both heavy arm guards, the DASH will charge towards an opposing mech, crushing them with deadly blunt force.
Special Ability: DASH Rush
The special Quorus heatsinks at the rear of the DASH activates and grants the reFrame increased speed, mobility, and reaction time although using this ability puts a lot of stress on the machine and can only be used once or twice before having the heatsinks replaced.

For those interested in LEGO mech building, I put out an eBook over at Amazon Kindle a while back called Mech Wars Instructional Primer. If you’re looking for a resource that could help you start or even improve your mech building skills, you might find this eBook useful :D
These are quite light , stylish and nice to work with.
This one will be tweaked a little more before the blades are brazed in.

I really like these old T-bar MR2s and this one has been nicely modified. Showing 117k as of the back end of October.
Convair modified C-131 Samaritan 53-37793 at the 1993 Edwards AFB open day, later modified further and designated NC-131H with a glazed nose, this aircraft now displayed at the National Museum of the USAF at Dayton Ohio.
Finished the top of my modified bento box at the retreat! I've been working on this off and on for a year and a half.
I used the tutorial at FITF: filminthefridge.com/2009/06/24/quartered-squares-a-modifi...
My friend Yvon Couture created a modified version. Let's see what people think about the two versions.
A quick complete re-design / rebuild of my Ideas set done in one afternoon and night.
Now incorportates working steering again.
Reduced total height of front by 1 plate, having to remove all the forward technic chassis to allow for this. Initially reduced all height by 2 plates, but looking at reference and plans again, as this is now 1 stud longer than my original, 1 plate lower seemed to be proportionate.
Adjusted ride height of front axle / steering.
Closed rear arches together as per original design.
Shaped and strengthend nose cone.
Corrected bonnet vents and side vents.
Closed gap between bonnet and nose cone.
Re-worked headlight assemblies
Re-worked seats to stop being all black cockpit, added harnesses.
Repositioned / strengthend dash - windshield, altered handbrake to not be so chunky, reduced size of mirrors to be more proportionate.
Strengthend internal floor, removed all floor studs, filed gaps.
Re-worked rear tonneau cover slightly, removing the offset steps under it, smoothed out the rollbar supports. (Will re-work this so they attach to the body, allowing them to stay in place when tonneau removed...when I get more time!)
Added decals!!!..ya know I love em! ;)
See if you can spot anything else that I've forgotten!
I must add, that I absolutely love the standard set considering the limitations that TLG have to work to and this in no way is trying to address what the model should have been....its just not possible within their constraints.
I, however, am able to take it back and put my mark on it, to get it closer to my original designs.
I've tried to keep it more in line with the standard set, rather than just completely re-building it to one of my original concept designs with a yellow colour change....if that makes any sense?
I had to do it first!....not that I've had much time recently ;)
See this, along with the standard set and real Caterham Seven 620R at the Brickish STEAM museum show www.greatwesternbrickshow.com/ THIS coming weekend (1st -2nd Oct)
The set goes live for sale this weekend and I'll be doing box signings throughout, if you should so happen to want one....or not! ;)
CC Rainbow Game - Blue
At first glance I assumed the truck on the right was left in the parking lot a little too long and developed a flat tire. Why else would it be leaning so much? Well... closer inspection revealed that both of these trucks had their suspensions altered, in opposite directions. The white truck was lifted, and the blue truck was lowered. Apparently, each corner of the blue vehicle can be lowered independently from the other corners if so desired. The bed of the truck contains equipment needed for all this lowering and lifting activity. No doubt plenty of entertainment is provided by both of these trucks.
Spacey eyes!

This is the one I made for my 14 yr old. I used the Olson pattern, but modified it by cutting off some of the cheek length and adding a few darts so it does not stick out. I did the same thing for the one I made for myself and for my sister.
Fabric used- mostly 100% cotton men's shirts (all from my stash - either my husband's cast offs or thrift store shirts I bought to make doll clothes). The Ralph Lauren and Tommy Hilfiger brands are usually 100% cotton.

This wooden seal is based on a satirical CIA Seal that was published in the Evening Star Newspaper after Project AZORIAN was exposed.
I've had these guys in storage for a while, I just remembered to share the modifications I made to these guys. Some have minor changes, some a bit more, and has no modifications at all (it's just included for Protector completeness, guess the unmodified one :-) )
Boeing modified four 747's and styled them "Dreamlifters" for carrying 787 Dreamliner parts to final assembly in Everett. Here 747-409LCF N780BA arrives at Paine Field on 12th February 2016, bringing 787 wings from Nagoya, Japan.
Originally built as a passenger aircraft for China Airlines in 1990, this aircraft operated as a passenger aircraft for seventeen years before being returned to Boeing for freighter conversion.
Dirt track racing began in the United States before World War I and became widespread during the 1920s and 1930s. Two different types of race cars dominated—open wheel racers in the Northeast and West and stock cars in the South. While open wheel race cars are purpose-built racing vehicles, stock cars (also known as fendered cars) can be either purpose-built race cars or street vehicles that have been modified to varying degrees.
Dirt track racing is the single most common form of auto racing in the United States. There are hundreds of local and regional racetracks throughout the nation; some estimates range as high as 1500. The sport is also popular in Australia, New Zealand, Canada, and the United Kingdom.
