Finally after many years I have been able to build a Diamond Pattern Pantograph that I am truly happy with. For a long time I hade used the good old Lego pantograph www.bricklink.comcatalogItem.asp?P=2881 on my fleet of Electric Locomotives as there was no better substitute to my liking. The unfortunate thing is with the official Lego Pantograph is it is rather under scaled, also it's only available in Single Arm format which is fine for modern locomotives but not for vintage locos that predominantly used the Diamond Pattern style.
Special thanks to Namo-Den who inspired me with his design used on his RhB Ge6/6 Crocodile www.flickr.com/photos/namo-den/5165827171/in/set-72157625... and his help with supplying me information about his design.
I love so many things about this little pattern - especially the lettering - it looks so retro to me... I also love the little round eyes - they remind me of the "Blondie" comic strip I read as a kid... :)
I hope you all have a very Happy Thanksgiving! :)
Working on a Sheath dress pattern that can be made from non-stretchy material I HATE sewing stretchy stuff, not to mention you can find the best tiny prints in calico cottons. Its looking pretty good... you can give it a try if you'd like. The pattern is on Shannanigan's Doll Modding (mis)Adventures
P.S. This Frankie was my first attempt at removing a head. Obviously it did not go well... so now she is my mannequin!
My sister and her family came over for lunch today. She brought over a tea set and glassware that where my grandmothers. Loved the pattern on the teaset but it didnt photograph well so I decided to try the glassware
