was a bit tricky getting a decent pic when facing the sun.
I'll look forward to getting the finished pics with Braves work in.
Nearly an hour after arriving, these abandoned drinks were the the first indications we'd had that there might be an actual party somewhere up ahead... and not just an endless purgatorial queue.
Around this same time, a couple passed by the line headed upstream, away from the direction of the party, and were (mostly) genially heckled.. "What's it like??" was my favorite.
9:40 PM.
My first three-stage reduction linocut! Just the final black layer to go. There are a couple of areas I don't like on this but overall I'm pretty happy with it.

Final
--------
This photo was subject to the most criticism (from both myself and others), and I'm still not completely happy with it. While I feel that the concept was sound, I struggled to come up with a way to execute it effectively. I needed to place a flash behind the large flask to give the impression that the fluid within it was glowing, but even on the lowest settings (1/128, three green filters, 18 mm zoom) it was still a little too bright. However, hoping to make it look as good as possible I reshot it three or four times on separate days, and every retake yielded a marginal improvement over the last. Although I am not entirely satisfied, I believe that this was the best I could do given the constraints presented by this concept.
Progress of my attempt to make an MSD Naga tail for a doll, that I plan to mod further.
The green thing is the core that I had wrapped with foil to be able to pull it out with ease, without it sticking to the apoxie sculpt.
I split the tail in 13 pieces.
As you can see one part broke while I spearated the pieces, but I'll fix it with more Apoxie, no problem.
I've done one of the four pages of the pattern - hopefully will find some time over the next few days to do some more...
More energy in this one.

From a bridge smack in the middle of Christiania. On both sides of the canal, little self-made houses and converted military barracks host the local families.
The new town centre development takes shape in Keynsham: work-in-progress as seen from Temple Street near its junction with Bath Hill. This photo was taken on Thursday 19th December 2013, so things will have moved on quite a bit since then.
My first egg tempera painting in progress. Egg tempera is an ancient form of painting which uses egg yolks to bind pigments. Tempera painting is going through a revival of sorts due to artists discovering its unique optical properties. No other painting medium can suppass the translucence and radiance of color as egg tempera (ET).
Some famous artists who have used this medium include a great many of the renaissance painters (prior to the advent of oil painting), Andrew Wyeth, Paul Cadmus, Reginald Marsh, Peter Hurd, as well as, many other current artists.
More info. on egg tempera:
this unit has sat for more than a week while the BNSF refuses to haul it because they wont send mechanical forces to inspect the just rebuilt locomotive. Its some day headed to the CP for lease.
It was rebuilt by Progress rail's mayfield KY shop though at this point its sitting south of VMV in North yard
The city has cut down this huge, perfectly healthy cottonwood tree in Lilydale Park. The stump is over six feet across. It appears to be part of their ongoing effort to "improve" this wilderness park by paving more of it. Bastards.

Progress on a painting for Solid Gallery Ones "Message in a Bottle" Show. I think I am gonna call this one: "Our Dreams, like our bottles...sank with the ship."

The left aileron is ready for chemistry, the right aileron is almost ready (just the skins need deburring and dimpling. Both fuel tanks are now waiting for fuel cap flange and fuel level sensor fitting.
Parts shown here in green are complete, yellow are awaiting some final riveting or blending tasks, orange are awaiting primer, and red are works in progress. Uncolored parts haven't yet been worked on.
