Time to ask a silly question on the blog! I'd love it if you could find a moment to offer an answer!
.
I've been trying to paint X-23's face and I just can't get the likeness. I don't know why but it is just too tricky. What do suggest I change??
Seasonally dimorphic, the fall form of this species with strong lavender edging and predominantly orange coloration on the dorsal hind wings will overwinter as an adult. It will be one of the earliest butterflies to fly in spring and may even be encountered on warm winter days in early February. This butterfly does not rely on floral nectar, but prefers to sip flowing tree sap, carrion and dung. Male butterflies love to puddle and are notoriously territorial meeting any intruder that enters their territory.
After a disastrous captive breeding programme this year, I may have success with a batch of 10 Question Mark butterflies. This 40mm final instar Polygonia interragationis larva is about to pupate; the other nine caterpillars have already formed their chrysalis on the Stinging Nettle (Urtica dioica) food plant.
The Question Mark is a nymphalid butterfly and is the largest of the Polygonia (Comma) species from North America. It lives in wooded areas, city parks, generally in areas with a combination of trees and open space.

We know, you have two questions.
“Where are the Gypsies? The title promised us nomads!” and “Winnebago made a trailer”?
Chevrolet gave us the first station wagon that was “cool” in 1955. Gypsies, Hippies, Surfers and a few suburban families loved the Nomad. You may have also noticed, this one is one of those, “Sea Foam Emerald Jade Turquoise Green” cars talked about in a previous episode.
Winnebago was founded in 1958 but did not build its first motor home until 1966. That factoid is a bit hard to wrap one’s head around. The name is so closely associated with campers with engines, it seems odd to think they haven’t been around for longer. Much like “Kleenex” the name Winnebago has become the word we use for all motor homes.
If you see this combo out on the road beware, these are nomads, gypsies, hippies... They have customs that the town folk fear.

Questions: (A) What is it? - and (B) What should I call it?
Can you think of a good Artsy title or name for this happy little quasi-accident of a shot?

this is one of my favorite pictures from an entire day at warped tour.
i have a lot of live performance photos to edit and i'm not looking forward to it. a majority of them are horrible! i love concert photography, i just despise having to upload them.
i'm seeing the summer set tonight! :) fun fun.
fact #5: it's upsetting to know that people i've never spoken to personally perceive me to be the person i am not.
Question: what do you think of classic car shows? I usually avoid them. Last Saturday I visited a large show here in The Netherlands, and it confirmed my view that I actually do not like them. Too many people. Too many cars. Like walking in a zoo. And hard to snap decent photos. At some point I even loaned my camera to one of my young cousins that were with me, because I was too occupied keeping an eye on the youngest in the crowd.
Ok, so first of all, the photo is completly irrelevant. People like IW so you know, I guess it's 'clickbait' in a way. Also, I guess, sorry for not posting, I'm on holiday so, you know. Plus all you lads follow lots of lads who post like 5 times a day so, you got lots to look at. Ok, on the the question...
So, I've been thinking about this for a while. Would you guys rather have quality, or quantity. Like would you rather have like one or two customs that take like 5-8 hours to make, a week? Or like five or six trash figures a week? I personally like to take my time with my figures. Like, my AK Scarecrow took me like 2 weeks of on and off work to make, and I think it came out really good. Compared to my Kingpin figure which took me like two days and I really don't like the look of him.
So really, quality or quantity?
Post your thoughts below mates.
Oh, and don't be a prick, don't post a photo saying "OH SNAP ______ DIED IN INFINITY WAR. OH SNAP." Because me, and lots of other lads don't want to get the biggest movie of our lives spoiled.
Two small raccoons come by regularly for meals. Both look pitiful. Both are bedraggled.
There is an easy way to tell them apart, though. This individual has had a notch taken out of her right ear, which is on the left in this photo.
I don't know how well raccoons get along with one another when they're spread out and hunting individually. However, put out a single abundant source of food and raccoons become extremely possessive and territorial. It's not uncommon for fights to break out among pairs who both want at the food bowl. Their growling is quite terrifying. So is the way they roll along the ground while they fight. Though it is hard to see their moves, when they slow a bit it looks as if they're pushing against each other's shoulders with their heads. In a way, they look like college wrestlers.
I think the notch in the ear is a souvenier of a past fight with a fellow raccoon
I feel that photography isn't all about the pretty pretty images we see all the time, Its capable of much more, Posing questions as Why, What, Where, And create emotion whether pleasant or not.

New parts? Those go straight into new DC figs in this house.

Professor Pyg: the newest and most terrifying version yet.
Steel: heck yeah silver parts.
The Question: Captain Redbeard on IG made a version of this guy based on mine; I came back with a new hat and took the torso he used. bam.
Not a wet paeony :)
What is reality? Is it an image? A reflection of an image? Or is it what we see?
Well... no to all of these. So the question remains an intriguing one. And the more I read about human perception the more intriguing it becomes: our minds don't see what our eyes do…
(And if, perchance, you find your curiosity piqued, ask yourself the question why are tiger and zebra stripes vertical and not horizontal. It’s not an accident and nor a creative whim, and the answer is relevant to photography too….)
This is for the Smile on Saturday group’s Reflection on Black theme.
It’s a visual tease of course. There are three questions in the puzzle:
What is it?
Which way is what?
Where’s the mirror?
All easy to answer, but if your eyes pause even for a moment as they work it out I will feel I have succeeded in my objective.
Curiously, for me, I found it much more obvious looking at the thumbnail than at the full-screen version. And that itself is a comment on our perception I think....
I read somewhere, and it’s true for me, that a photograph that takes the mind a little while to work out generally will be perceived as a more interesting one. And that is why we find record shots and clichéd images less engaging than the creative ones - sometimes just changing the viewpoint makes capture interesting (we all take our images at head height don’t we lol.)
This is part of a set I took 18 months ago, though I only processed this particular perspective today. If you want confirmation of what it is you can rummage through my photostream to find out...
Thank you for taking the time to look. I hope you enjoy the image! Happy Smile on Saturday :)
[Tripod mount; delayed-release. Black background on black glazed ceramic tile, side-lit with LED torch.
Processed in Capture One using levels to make things blacker and then balancing the light to give some detail in the reflection. Enhanceds colours, particularly the blue and the orange. Because I like them :)
Used a gradient masked layer to brighten the reflection part to decrease the disparity in lightness against the source.
Nik Color Efex Pro for a Classic Soft Focus effect to introduce a glow to the highlights. This was a bit over the top so I blended the effect layer back into the original using Darken mode.
Flipped vertically. For fun.
Then we were done :)]

Here's some notable members of the GCPD who are loyal to the Bat Family, including Commissioner Gordon and his daughter.
Batgirl here was originally based on the Rebirth design and the new figure, but with the LBM purple/yellow color scheme - then it ended up being remarkably similar to the new Gotham Knights design, and kishalego's figure version! Lots of coincidence/common influence, I guess.

It’s a weird feeling. Just over two years ago I was idolizing Captain America. The whole reason why I did what I did was to be more like him. Hmph… Thinking about that in hindsight really shows me how drastically I messed up. Shame dozens of people had to die for me to even get the chance to speak to my idol.
Captain America and Bruce Banner walk down the corridor discussing the situation that happened just earlier that week and how it’s affected things now. Banner explains the unstableness of the stolen artifact and how it is in dire need of being retrieved as quickly as possible.
“So we need to get the cube back. If it’s powers are still unknown, it could level a city block faster than the Hulk can smash through one.”
”I’m not looking for competition, Cap.”
“I know. Man things seem much more grandiose now.”
”You can say that again.”
“So. My mission?”
”Ah yes. What you need to do.” Banner began to explain every detail in minute detail so that Captain would not have any questions after. Moments pass and the mission is laid out for the Captain.
“Thank you, Doctor.” Cap says with a salute.
”My pleasure, Captain. Good luck.” Banner quickly responds.

This is the beginning of what will hopefully become the Avengers story in the MCSG. It's about time we got an Avengers story out and boy will I tell you that I could not be more excited. Payton (Nexus) and I will be working together on this so if you didn't read the linked stories above please do so now. :D
Get ready because the Avengers are assembling! (hopefully)
