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.
Nice to see more of these 7000 series SD90 rebuilds showing up in eastern Canada. Progress Rail did a great job on them.
"Take a 'practice makes progress' attitude, rather than practice makes perfect. While perfection might be the goal, celebrating progress is much like aiming for a personal best," writes Derrin Cramer in her new book, 'The Beginner's Guide to Life on the Bright Side'.

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.

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.
Imperfect hexagon shape in watercolor with text overtop that reads, 'A little progress each day adds up to big results.'
this will be turned into a pocket to go on the outside of a tote. pattern by sew lovely, bitchin' scissors from sublime stitching
Cat-Mai - Mai with the Catwa Magy head - is well on her way to becoming a character your Mai could live with as an avatar (because, though you found her beautiful sweetie, your wife couldn't make a 'habit' of the embryonic Cat-Mai as she looks in those 'Dancing Zen' pictures).
Here Cat-Mai is born again with some modified facial proportions, most noticeably her mouth and lips, which are now literally Golden (ie. PHI = 1:1.618 = 62% on the SL Lip Ratio slider), a move that does give her face a je ne sais quoi in your Mai's eyes and renders her attractive enough now to 'live with' more than just now and then. If you like her, love, I can 'be' Cat-Mai more often.
Cat-Mai is showing off the Analexa small-breasted body, with a slimmer shape than even Slink-Mai used to wear. And she's been given a new LAQ skin (Natasha) which sets off her nose and mouth a bit more than the Camille skin Slink-Mai and MaiChai wear.
Hope you like her and these pics which really got me going on the Black & White and F-S conversions! For some reason they do this particular face more justice than plain colour does - whether that's a good sign I'm not quite sure. ♥X

After a devastating fire in 2019, the Paris landmark is scheduled to start welcoming visitors once again in December 2024. Here’s what we know so far about the progress of the Notre-Dame restoration
Notre-Dame Cathedral's 2023 Reconstruction Progress Updates
In 2023, significant progress has been made in the restoration of Notre-Dame Cathedral. Almost 1,000 workers are involved in the efforts, both on-site and in workshops across France. Scaffolding is being removed in phases, and the Grand Organ, stained-glass windows, and wrought iron railings have undergone restoration. Key structural elements like vaults and buttress walls have been repaired or replaced. The timber framework for the nave and choir is being prepared in workshops for future installation. The reconstruction of the iconic spire has also commenced. Overall, the progress report indicates steady advancement towards the cathedral’s complete restoration.
www.friendsofnotredamedeparis.org/re construction-progress/ It’s been four years since a fire ripped through Notre-Dame cathedral in Paris on April 15, 2019. Reconstruction efforts on the 12th-century monument are well underway, with plans to reopen to visitors and churchgoers alike next year, French officials told the Associated Press. How long will it take to rebuild Notre-Dame? The Gothic church remains closed to the public as reconstruction continues, but French officials said Notre-Dame will be ready to reopen to the public in December 2024. “My job is to be ready to open this cathedral in 2024. And we will do it,” General Jean-Louis Georgelin, the army general leading the restoration project, told the Associated Press in March 2023. “We are fighting every day for that and we are on a good path.” In the days following the fire, French President Emmanuel Macron set a five-year restoration deadline, in time for the 2024 Paris Summer Olympics. In 2019, experts familiar with medieval restoration work said it could take about 15 to 20 years to rebuild the roof, spire, and parts of stone vaulting that fell through to the main sanctuary. Thankfully, the current deadline is closer to Macron’s vision.Although the cathedral plans to reopen for both church services and tourist visits in December 2024, the full restoration won’t be complete until 2025, Culture Minister Rima Abdul-Malak told the AP. How is the restoration work on Notre-Dame progressing? While the stained-glass rose windows, rectangular towers, and priceless Christian relics all survived the blaze, extensive reconstruction work is necessary before the cathedral can reopen. By November 2020, workers successfully removed all the scaffolding that had been in place around the spire for an earlier renovation project when the fire broke out in 2019. In September 2021, the government agency overseeing the reconstruction of Notre-Dame announced that the temporary structures built to secure the cathedral’s iconic towers, vaults, and walls were complete. Reconstruction efforts began in earnest in December 2021, including work on the organ restoration and other parts of the cathedral. In February 2023, scaffolding went up to begin the process of reinstalling the replica of architect Eugene Viollet-le-Duc’s 19th-century spire that collapsed in the fire with original materials including oak trees cut from French forests. The spire will also again be built with lead, which raised concerns from both health and environmental groups after the 2019 fire released potentially toxic lead particles into the neighborhood surrounding the cathedral, prompting a lengthy cleanup effort. The spire is slated to be completed by the end of 2023, according to the Agence France-Presse.

Documenting Lulu's progress with the camera on the ipad. Lulu doesn't trust my DSLR camera yet.
Today is the very first time Lulu has played with me. And, of course, Vidalia is involved in the fun and games. While I was able to coax Lulu up to the top step while playing, I some day hope to encourage Lulu to spend time on the bed instead of under it. I suspect Vidalia will be able to help me accomplish that.
At some point I hope to get those razor-sharp claws trimmed. But that's quite a ways off still.

Just a quick flash photo to show how it's coming along - I am totally getting this finished tomorrow. :D I have some brilliant podcasts lined up and I am FINSIHING.
It's a bit messy (and excuse the tape in the middle, that's to hold back the botched up knot that was getting in my way) BUT all the hair is very firmly in place and from the outside it is PERFECT. (and the aesthetics of the inside matter very little, really.) I have definitely improved and I am planning on starting my next the minute this is finished.
And the thermal saran is SO BEAUTIFUL and lovely :D and when I sit and reroot in my lap some of it turns yellow and it's so pretty
Testors coming in the mail so I can finish Addie's face and have my thermal girl back together. :D :D :D
I have been so thorough with this reroot. I wonder if most people do nearly every hole in the takara scalps?
