It appears to have a mix of features that make it somewhat difficult to absolutely pinpoint what year model it is. (See my notes that I’ve placed within the photo above for the various features.) I suppose that a quick look at its VIN would yield a solid answer, at least from the legal standpoint.
The back of the same Corvette exhibits features that are curious if not a bit confused. The Year of Manufacture (YOM) plate indicates 1963 as the model year presumably in agreement with the car’s VIN. Yet the most obvious identifying features of a 1963 Corvette - the split backlite and two decorative vent grilles on the hood - do not appear on this car. Furthermore, the 1963-1964 Corvettes feature two horizontal indentations located aft of the wheel opening in the front fender, not the three vertical openings on this car. The hood that features the wide bulge was a feature that became available from 1965-on only for the models with the Big Block V-8 engines such as the 396 and 427.
Teaser tuesday. Working ahead on another moc. Grand master remote, just gitta work out all the technical and put it together
Recently I got some new Gold Paint so i put it to use on my custom LEGO Flash And My Custom Lego Red Robin (He Isn't Done)
20901 and 20905 are the locos at either end of 6J09 10.28 Crewe Gresty Lane Down Sidings - Woking Up Yard, pictured going very slowly at Barrow-upon-Trent as they approach a red signal.
They are moving the "Drain Train", KHA wagons 83 70 4574 013-6 and 83 70 4574 009-4 - bogie container flats modified by adding equipment for clearing lineside drains (although the wagons themselves do not display the first four digits of their UIC numbers).
My original plan had been to photograph this here, after a second attempt at the HST-powered overhead line test train (1Q92 today) south of Leicester - but 1Q92 didn't run. So I'd gone over to Elford for a 730 drag (with 37510, my first EE loco of the day - see this photo), and a couple of hours later ended up around Stenson Jn. for the scrap JHA hoppers (my second EE-powered train, with 37884 and 37800 - see this photo) and then a first attempt at this train (see this photo). However, with clouds having built up (but moving eastwards extremely slowly), I came close to forgetting the shots there and coming straight here in the hope I'd beat them... but I'm glad I didn't when they began to burn off!
Looking at the timings, with thirty-nine minutes being allowed between Stenson Jn. and Loughborough (there was no Barrow-upon-Soar time) I thought there was a good chance of getting ahead of the train, especially if, as I expected, it went onto the Castle Donington line ahead of booked time given what appeared to be errors in the schedule; I didn't expect the train to be allowed to run early up the Midland Main Line.
As I parked the car in an empty cul-de-sac I was fairly certain the train had been allowed to run early and I'd missed it. But it had been due to pass Loughborough at 13.02 and it was only 12.57, so I would have expected to have seen any photographers leaving. The absence of anyone on the footbridge (or in the car park or on the bridge behind me) also made me think it had passed a long time ago, and checking Realtime Trains revealed a report at Loughborough at 12.51 (stopping passenger trains are allowed four and a half minutes between the two stations). I got out the camera anyway, just in time to photograph 170531 coming south on the Up Slow (as booked).
But I then checked signalling maps (mostly to see how far south 6J09 had got, and if anything else was on its way) and found the train was actually sat at Loughborough: it had been stopped at a red signal on the Up Slow while 170531 (running two minutes behind schedule) overtook it and called at platform 3 (on the Down Slow, bidirectional at this point). There was time to change lenses, take a few test shots to check the exposure (I had to underexpose by two-thirds of a stop because the dark green trees fooled the light meter) and check the image sharpness (on the right-hand side - remembering my problems of the previous day). Eventually, the train appeared - and going so slowly that taking a continuous burst of frames would not have worked!
But I was amazed to be stood here alone, in lovely sunshine.
Uploaded a second time because it failed to appear in other people's Activity Feed (a problem which is still occasionally occurring). Sorry to the one person who had faved the first upload.

I wanted to title this Ballet in Dead Vlei Namibia but could not change the title once uploaded.

The rest of my modified space sets. Sorry for the many uploads today, but I didn't feel like waiting days to post these pictures. I have a lot of more interesting MOCs waiting for their turn ^^
So I spot this unit and I'm getting a photo of this, in Barr Lake area there's no over night parking..
I painted his arms, gave him a modified cape, and made custom daggers for him. Comments appreciated :)

Another lightly modified frame by SuspendedAnimation. The Thermal Energy Rifle has been equipped with a canister style power source, rather than tethered directly to the frame. Although this limits the ability for uninterrupted firing, it allows the weapon to be carried by most frames.
No not me its the crops that are genetically
modified. Although I am sure some mutation occurred with me at birth, Maybe I am one of those evolutionary steps Mr Darwin was on about.
Probably not 😒
Anyway back to yesterday, I had to go to the tip to get rid of a microwave that went pop pop crackle fizzzz crackle bang! As per usual i was over dressed wearing this number, Didn't need a hi viz jacket though so that's a plus point. Did get some looks from the guys, i think they were confused because they wanted to help but couldn't lol
I just had to struggle on my own with the microwave.
Didn't really take any photos at home as my daughter had her boyfriend over and it is a bit strange taking photos with him around. Instead he had to put up with me pottering around getting in the way
This photo is shot with a modified lens. I removed one of the glasses inside and turned the rear glass 180 degr. The picture has a bit of sharpness in the center and a very strange affect on the sides and the corners.
The Copernicus Sentinel-2B satellite takes us over Semarang, Indonesia. A port city on the north coast of Java, Semarang is the fifth-largest city in the country, covering some 374 sq km and home to just over 1.5 million people.
This true-colour image shows the heart of the bustling regional commercial centre in the bottom-left, where a range of industries from fishing to glass manufacture and textiles operate. Exports of rubber, coffee, shrimp, tobacco, and cacao, among other products, pass through the city’s harbour, which can also be seen in the bottom-left of the image.
The Java Sea dominates the left part of the image. Flood management remains an ongoing challenge for the area, with the city being prone to tidal flooding.
The island nation of Indonesia is particularly vulnerable to sea-level rise. Some parts of Semarang, such as the residential area of Candi Baru, shown in the bottom-left of the image, stand just above sea level.
In the right of the image we can see mainly agricultural land, with rice fields stretching across the landscape. Land subsidence has been widely reported in the area, particularly in the northern part of Semarang, accelerated by population increases and urban development.
The impacts of subsidence include the wider expansion of (coastal) flooding areas, cracking of buildings and infrastructure, and increased inland seawater intrusion.
Sentinel-2 is a two-satellite mission for land monitoring, providing imagery of soil and water cover, inland waterways and coastal areas, for Europe’s Copernicus environmental monitoring programme. Wide swath Sentinel-2 data can also contribute to monitoring land-use change that triggers erosion, forest and wildfires, and the onset of floods.
This image, which was captured on 9 May 2018, is also featured on the Earth from Space programme, here www.esa.int/spaceinvideos/Videos/2018/11/Earth_from_Space...

This charming '25 Model T was modified to better move travelers' trunks and baggage back and forth between rail stations and hotels.
Tillandsia 'White Star' (ixioides x recurvifolia) shot with MC Zenitar M2s 50mm f/2 with the "magic bokeh" mod.
After seeing many great sculpture in Europe for myself, I realize that modification of the body is needed. Still working on it :3
Instead of the standard Black, I decided on a Dark Blue boiler and tender.
This was my first time designing decals in PrintShop, then transferring into Cricut software to cut the silver vinyl for the stripes and tender accent.
This is a modified build from instructions found on Rebrickable.
Wheels from BigBenBricks including XXL wheels with groove and traction ring, which work great.
