21 Main Street East, densification of downtown, new customers for merchants, new automobiles for traffic management, and the first of other construction projects to come. Is change progress?
A bit of progress since the last picture, where I'd just removed the wing. Since then I've cleaned up the inner wing, grinding back any surface rust and treating. Then applied a couple of coats of Hammerite to vulnerable areas. A couple of localised patches will be required at the top of the inner wing unfortunately, but it could have been a lot worse I guess.
Door removed in this pic, although I've now fitted the spare door with a good bit of help from a fellow minded enthusiast who will no doubt be reading this (thanks for braving the cold!).
Next steps are a bit more rust prodding on the other side, fit the replacement wing and go & get some paint quotes.
This is me on a typical work day. I remember being a kid and spending days on end without a shirt on, much to my mother's frustration. Until the age of 12 or 13 I would actually bring a pair of blue jeans to church so I could run out to the car and change out of dress pants immediately. For a couple years I wore a clip-on tie to church, for easy removal.
Now I'm comfortable in my dry-cleaned shirt, nice slacks, and dress shoes. Thankfully my specialty doesn't encourage tie wearing.
So, I sit back and wonder sometimes, did I betray that little guy who steadfastly didn't want to grow up? Is this progress? Would I rather be one of those "cool" people who get to go to work in comfortable pants and geek-themed, humorous T-shirts? Would it be so bad to have a half dozen tattoos and some piercings?
Honestly, I don't know. This is me. It works for now, and I'm happy. Still, it doesn't mean I don't wonder sometimes.
A good bit of progres on the Audi yesterday. Various prep jobs completed and new wing now in place.
The panel gaps aren't bad, but could do with some fine tuning. I'll ask the pros to sort that though, the wing will need to come off again anyway as it needs a couple of patches welding where the leading edge of the wing sits.
Finally got some progress done today :) blonde girl is for Kat (working on your second one now!) zombie girl for Jess / Sookie. Needs to dry and add snap closure and it's done :D
Nice to see more of these 7000 series SD90 rebuilds showing up in eastern Canada. Progress Rail did a great job on them.
Looks like I´m getting better and more consistent.
Biggest problem is that I ran out of Torsos :P
There´s still the rear of the torsos to do, but this will be a bit complicated for my current setup.
Title: Dress in Progress
Year: 2015
Medium: Textiles and Digital Photography
Size: Dimensions Variable
Description:
I chose to create this dress to bring my love of fashion and photography together. The images on the right side are the original photographs for photos I later printed as polaroids. The specific photos I chose represent striking colors and textures that inspired me to create a dress from them.
Thomas Crawford
Marble
1863
East entrance, Senate wing
U.S. Capitol
The sculptural pediment over the Senate entrance on the U.S. Capitol's east front is called Progress of Civilization. The center figure is America, who stands with an eagle at her side and the sun at her back. On the right, a woodsman, hunter, Indian chief, Indian mother and child, and Indian grave represent the early days of America. On the left the diversity of human endeavor is suggested by the soldier, the merchant, the two youths, the schoolmaster and child, and the mechanic. Completing this side of the tympanum are sheaves of wheat, symbolic of fertility, and an anchor, symbolic of hope; these elements are in contrast with the grave at the opposite end of the tympanum.
The figures were designed by American sculptor Thomas Crawford in Rome, Italy, in 1854. They were carved at the Capitol in 1855-1859 from Lee, Massachusetts, marble and erected in 1863.
The entire pediment is 80 feet long, its height at the center is approximately 12 feet, and the length of the sculpture is approximately 60 feet.
The sculptor, Thomas Crawford (1814-1857), also created the Statue of Freedom atop the dome, the designs of bronze Senate and House doors, and the figures of Justice and History above the Senate bronze doors.
