In replicating this fifth-gen stealth fighter, I was aiming for:
– Smooth: nearly studless in form.
– Integrated: packing in a host of features.
– Fresh: incorporating new pieces and techniques.
and of course, purist! (at least, for now; I may experiment with designing some Marine Corps liveries on waterslide decals for mere aesthetic decoration that denotes the squadron affiliation…)
The 1:40 scale replica includes:
– Opening cockpit that holds pilot, control panel, and joystick
– Hidden weapon bays in fuselage for stealth missions
– Optional exterior loadout for air-to-ground attacks
– Retracting landing gear that supports the model
– Opening flaps, rotating fan blades, and tilting vector nozzle for VTOL
– Stable Technic display stand and brick-built name plaque.
This is the first MOC I’ve finished in about five years (during which I completed my university degree, got my full-time career job, moved out, got married, and a few other things), after working on it off-and-on for at least three years. [The real-life aircraft has suffered from its own extensive delays in design / production, so I guess it could be worse where my LEGO one is concerned. XD]
A big thank-you to everyone who has inspired me along the way, including special acknowledgements to AFOL friends like the Chiles family and Eli Willsea for helping rekindle my joy in the hobby; Brickmania, for showing me a few new hinge techniques that I incorporated during these last few months of the design process; and especially my lovely wife Natalie who, bless her heart, has allowed the dining room of our tiny apartment to serve as my building studio and encouraged me to use it more often as such!
Let me know what you guys think!
This Matchbox model replicates in 1:110th scale an AEC Militant MK1 10 ton 6X6 lorry with General Service body. The Matchbox miniature was number 62a in the 1-75 series and was issued in 1959 and deleted in 1963.
The model in the images is one of my childhood treasures it isn’t mint and I never had the box because it was a gift from one of the school’s dinner ladies Mrs Wagstaff way back in the day.

This is my attempt to replicate gary's images photo posted February 1, 2011 which was Explored. I want everyone to know that somebody owes me for a good pair of reading glasses. I had to bend and twist these to try to replicate gary's shot. He must have a crooked head.

Phew.
By request, here’s a quick guide to replicating this on Unix. The one nonstandard tool you’ll need is GDAL, which most package managers know about. You’ll also want something that works with images; imagemagick is fine. Also, we’ll be doing a lot of bulk i/o, so if one of your drives is faster, do this project on it and save several minutes of looking at progress meters. Watch out for Flickr mangling my sh, and tweet at me if you spot bugs.
Part 1: The elevation data
We’ll use CGIAR’s 5°×5° dataset, which is overkill, but that’s how we do. You can use their handy Google Earth layer to find the data cells we need, which turn out to be column 12, rows 2–4 inclusive; 13, rows 2–4; 14, rows 2–4; and 15, row 4. Copying one of the GeoTIFF download links from the KML’s popup, we find we can get them like this:
$ curl -O 'http://srtm.geog.kcl.ac.uk/portal/srtm41/srtm_data_geotiff/srtm_{12_02,12_03,12_04,13_02,13_03,13_04,14_02,14_03,14_04,15_04}.zip'
If you’re willing to give up your data’s chain of custody, you can do a web search for one of the file names and find other sources, some of them faster than KCL.
Unzip the data. You can remove the *.txt, *.hdr, and *.tfw files, so we’re left with 10 GeoTIFFs and nothing else. We merge them into a single GeoTIFF:
$ gdal_merge.py srtm*.tif -o main.tiff
Mine is 843892 kB and has a $(shasum) of 0a3b92fb5ccd60951df6c459aadd167bc397d425.
Part 2: The cutline
If you find a better way of doing this step, leave a comment, because it’s ridiculous. The version presented here is several hours faster than what I originally did, but no less kludgy.
We want the data in MVBCRB. Unfortunately, it’s not an outline (a single ordered sequence of points), it’s a series of several dozen outline segments. Geometrically, it’s a handful of curves in no particular order that happen to share endpoints. But sharing endpoints means we can join them into a single polygon if we’re willing to suffer a little.
Grab the KML version of this that André Coleman put up. It’s relatively cleaned up and saves us some preparation steps:
$ curl -O webpages.charter.net/zeeland/crws.kml
If you look in there (watch out, it’s almost a megabyte), you’ll see that the overall polygon is defined as a bunch of LineString elements, and that the coordinates of these elements happen to be the only lines that start with “-”. So we can extract them like this:
$ grep '^-' crws.kml > linestrings
Super gross but super effective. Now the linestrings file has 65 lines containing point series in the format “lat,lon,ele ”*. Take this and run it like this:
$ python linesplice.py linestrings > cutline.kml
This will join the 65 individual lines into a single line based on shared endpoints. It’s purpose-built around the perfect overlaps of this dataset, so if you use it on anything else, do some fuzzy matching or risk an infinite loop.
Part 3: Rendering
We’ll use gdalwarp to do three important things at once: (1) reproject the data to Oregon Lambert (EPSG 2993), a fairly conservative choice; (2) make the file smaller, because right now it’s 24000×18000 and that’s ridiculous, and (3) mask out everything outside the Columbia River Basin. (I won’t describe all the minor flags I pass the gdal tools; look them up if curious.)
$ gdalwarp -r cubicspline -multi -t_srs EPSG:2993 -ts 8000 0 -cutline cutline.kml main.tiff proj.tiff
We’re on the home stretch. Now let’s do a hillshade image (sun azumith of 200°, vertical exaggeration of 3×):
$ gdaldem hillshade -compute_edges -az 200 -z 3 proj.tiff shade.tiff
This is the first thing we’ve made that’s actually intelligible to look at, so pull it up. It should look correct but bland.
Now some hypsometric tints – Leonardo da Vinci’s most important invention. Make a text file called, say, height.txt and put something like this in it:
3000 255 255 255
1500 10 80 20
500 150 150 100
1 20 100 80
0 0 0 0
The first column is an elevation (in meters) and the next three are the R, G, and B of the color you want that elevation to be. It interpolates smoothly for you. I picked this palette to suggest general land use: floodplain-type stuff down low, then amber waves of grain, woods in the hills, and rock and snow up high. Tinkering with these colors is a lot of fun. Now we make a hypsometry layer:
$ gdaldem color-relief proj.tiff height.txt color.tiff
Now merge the files. You can do fancy stuff with overlay compositing, but a simple average looks pretty good:
$ convert -average shade.tiff color.tiff merged.tiff
Convert will kvetch about TIFF tags it doesn’t recognize, which is fine; we no longer need the georeference data. You might also want to crop the image a bit, since it still reaches the bounding box of all the topo data we downloaded:
$ convert -trim merged.tiff trimmed.tiff
You now have something that differs only in incidental ways like color choice from the above image.
The main things I would do to improve this workflow are (1) find or make a better cutline, (2) handle null data better (look at the mouth of the Columbia – ugh), and (3) cut after hillshading, so the edge of the watershed doesn’t get shading.
If you have improvements – those or others – please comment.
...I've always wanted to get driving shots. That is shots of how it feels like to be driving - and you know me - especially driving at night. However, since the car is moving and you have little light these shots are hard.
One of my contacts (toni V) has many terrific driving shots. I was hoping to replicate this shot he has, but I failed. More on that in a bit...
www.flickr.com/photo_zoom.gne?id=1095139960&context=s...
...I had heard that using a Gorilla tripod strapped to the headrest is one solution. However, when I took this shoot I did not have my Gorilla Tripod yet (the Amazon box was waiting for me when I got home today!!). So I strapped the tripod in the backseat with the legs on each side of the divider. Then I secured it used both seatbelts in the back. I also used the passenger's seatbelt. It was pretty sturdy and did not move much.
Then I attached my Rebel with my new 10-20mm Sigma. I wanted a wide shot so I could see all the windows so I shot wide open at 10mm.
My first shoot got too much of me (see the first shot below) so I adjusted the camera and moved my seat way back and inclined the seat backwards. Fortunately, my car has a telescoping steering wheel which I adjusted to towards me so I could reach it. Then I started driving slowly and smoothly. This takes some effort since I typically drive somewhat aggressively (if you drive this car like a Camry you find yourself wanting a Camry - which is no bad thing mind you). Also I drive mostly alone so I don't have to think about jolting people or tripods with expensive gear on them around with sudden burst of speed or jolting gear changes.
I also tried to avoid potholes, but in Jersey this is hard. Most of these shots are from Port Imperial Blvd. (goes along the Hudson with nice views of Midtown Manhattan) at speeds of about 30 mph.
Then I decided to go on the Turnpike at speeds of 50-70 mph. Surprisingly these shots did not turn out that badly.
I need to experiment a lot more with this, but I happy for a first try.
I also attempted to replicate this shot by Toni V:
www.flickr.com/photos/toniphotos/1730053829/
Terrific don't you agree? I love his shot. He took it without a tripod (it is a 10 second exposure!!!). He also provided this sketch:
www.flickr.com/photos/toniphotos/1491592704/
I tried this sitting still in a parking lot (and pressing the camera against the glass and got blurry shot every time. Toni V must have arms of steel...
I also should have taken these shots without rain (to see better through the windshield and with more traffic (this was arond 10 pm). I will try to zoom closer to the windshield as well.
You can also try these shots during the day with some cool results as another contact of mine does (hermanau)

Here is the slideshow of my shots...

UPDATE: I deleted a shot and added two more.

Handcrafted by lithic (stone) artifact replication specialist, Jay Valente, this stone knife exemplifies stone-age craftsmanship and utility. Like all of his lithic work, this is a premium high-grade museum quality replica and there was special attention given to historical accuracy and authenticity in its creation. Jay’s work has been featured for sale in the largest Native American museum in the world and both his lithic replicas and his lithic artifact consultation services have been touted by esteemed archaeologists and historical preservation offices alike.
Modeled after Native American stone blades and spear points of the paleo and time periods (about 12,000 to 9,000 years before present), this work utilizes a random flaking pattern and lancolate fluted “clovis” style.
From conception to completion, Jay traces the footsteps and actions of the ancient people. He selected a high quality stone of novaculite and brought it home to be cooked under a wood fire for several days. Unlike other stone knives or stone arrowheads you might find on eBay or Etsy, this is not a mass produced, machine cut or drilled product. It is entirely handcrafted. The raw stone was then flintknapped and pressure flaked with a deer antler and rock hammerstone using traditional primitive techniques and methods. The stone blade was then hafted onto an azalea branch. The novaculite blade is secured to the wooden handle with elk gut cordage and a pine pitch glue recipe.
This knife represents a rare feat of flintknapping skill. Using quality stone and primitive, traditional flintknapping methods he crafted this novaculite stone knife with historical considerations and authenticity of process in mind.
For the discerning collector or primitive technology enthusiast, look no further for a high-grade stone-age replica knife. This historical reproduction makes for a stunning educational or decorative display, however, it is sharp and sturdy enough to be used as well; perhaps as a stone skinning knife, or a stone survival bushcraft knife.

Castle Hall, Bryant Street, Walcott, Iowa. This building was built in 1905, and was intended to replicate Balmoral Castle, an old Norman stronghold in Scotland. When first built, the metal panels that cover the framework were gray. The building was originally the home and business of Doctor Henry Schumacher; his residence was on the second floor, while the pharmacy was on the main floor. Beneath the tower is a basement dungeon that was once the subject of much speculation. Quite the eccentric, Dr. Schumacher kept a pair of plaster of Paris skeletons in the dungeon, painted with phosphorescent paint to awe his visitors. After the doctor passed away in 1934, the first floor was used as a "beer parlor". The building was later converted to apartments.
Not wishing to bore you all but many of you will already be aware that this year [the very end of May] we celebrate 40 years of married life.
Ten years after we married I was posted overseas to Gibraltar [just before the Falklands War broke out as it happens which is why I wasn't able to go down that way although prior to going to Gibraltar I had been drafted to HMS Antelope. You may recall that she was one of the ships that went down in the South Atlantic.....lucky for me but sadly not for some of them]. Anyway, the left hand image above was taken at the 1st mess dinner we attended and it was customary to have your photograph taken. We have both always liked this one and it does, of course, bring back some very happy memories for us. I figured that as a part of our Ruby Wedding celebrations it might be fun to try and replicate that photograph taken 30 years ago and here is the result of that on the right. Alas, we no longer have the clothes we wore back then [ except for the bow tie I'm wearing which is the same one!!] but we've had a pretty good stab at wearing something from our current wardrobes!!
How lucky we are to have such wonderful processing software available to us that allowed me to combine the new photograph with the background of the old one. We had great fun this evening getting dressed up and trying to get in the same pose that we did all those years ago and I've had great fun burning the midnight oil doing all the processing!!!! LOL I reckon I could have kept on working on it but there came a time when I had to say enough was enough.
Anyway I thought it might be nice to share the fruits of our labours with everyone and hope that you derive some pleasure from it as indeed we have.
Thanks in advance of any views, comments and/or faves, your time taken to do that is so very much appreciated. :>)
I tried to replicate a shot I took last week so I could submit it for the Auckland Nikon Photo Day but I didn't quite have the sunset from a week ago and the sky was grey and boring. I don't like it as much as my previous shot but but some photographs cannot be repeated but I love the stories that can be told through street photography. This one is all about a family day out with father giving his son a piggy back and the daughter skipping across the road with the mother following behind.

Whitechapel was a British television drama series produced by Carnival Films,[1] in which detectives in London's Whitechapel district dealt with murders which replicated historical crimes. The first series was first broadcast in the UK on 2 February 2009 and depicted the search for a modern copycat killer replicating the murders of Jack the Ripper.
A second series was commissioned by ITV in September 2009 with the focus on the Kray twins. The first episode of this second series was broadcast on 11 October 2010.[2]
A third series was commissioned by ITV in March 2011, which was extended to six episodes as three two-part stories.[3]
The first and second series were broadcast in the United States on six consecutive Wednesday evenings beginning 26 October 2011 on the BBC America cable network. The third was broadcast in the US starting on Wednesday 28 March 2012, also on BBC America.[4]
On 24 September 2012, ITV renewed Whitechapel for a fourth series consisting of six episodes. The first episode was broadcast on 4 September 2013.[5]
On 16 November 2013, Rupert Penry Jones confirmed that ITV had decided not to recommission the show and cancelled it.[6]

Production
The first season was written by Ben Court and Caroline Ip. ITV Director of Drama Laura Mackie said "Whitechapel is a very modern take on the detective genre which combines the Victorian intrigue of the original case with the atmospheric backdrop of a contemporary East End of London. This is not simply about bloodthirstily recreating the Ripper murders, but rather focusing on the three main characters at the heart of the story and the black humour that binds the team together."[7]
Reception
Whitechapel debuted on 2 February 2009 at 9pm with 8.13 million viewers on the overnight ratings.[8] Series one received positive reviews, and holds a Metacritic score of 75 out of 100, indicating "generally favourable" reviews.[9]
A review in the Leicester Mercury said that it was "Life on Mars, without the time-travel" adding "what Whitechapel lacked in originality, it more than made up for with atmosphere and enthusiasm."[10] After Episode 2 was broadcast on 9 February, Andrew Billen in The Times said that he had warmed to it more and more, adding, "slowly, the show is making Ripperologists of us all, as Jack's 'canonical' murders are separated from the ones he actually committed. It is all in the worst possible taste and bloody good fun."[11] However, The Daily Telegraph was less impressed, writing "The premise was feeble, the script imbecilic, the acting on autopilot, the direction lacking in any glimmer of tension."[12]
Series two received favourable reviews, and holds a Metacritic score of 69 out of 100, indicating "generally favourable" reviews.[13]

1 "Part 1" S. J. Clarkson Ben Court & Caroline Ip 2 February 2009 9.26
As the final step before promotion, fast-tracker DI Joseph Chandler is posted to Whitechapel by Commander Anderson to lead the investigation into the murder of a woman. However, the case does not turn out as straightforward as Chandler had hoped. The victim, Cathy Lane, is found by CSO Mary Bousfield, bleeding to death with her throat cut in the yard of a Board School, with the killer watching only a short distance away. The Whitechapel squad—front-line, hard-bitten DS Ray Miles and DCs Kent, McCormack, Sanders and Fitzgerald—arrive at the scene after Cathy is pronounced dead and are less than pleased to hear of the imminent arrival of yet another new DI, a 'plastic', a 'paper policeman' who has no idea what he is doing. Chandler arrives, armed with the knowledge of his courses and text books, ready to solve his first murder.
2 "Part 2" S. J. Clarkson Ben Court & Caroline Ip 9 February 2009 8.20
As it is clear this case is no longer a straightforward murder that Chandler can wrap up quickly, he is summoned to see Commander Anderson and his superiors who are very concerned that London may have a Jack the Ripper copycat – especially the impact of this leaking to the press. They tell Chandler he is on his own and that he must solve this case quickly. Having earned a small degree of grudging respect, Chandler leads his squad as they begin researching Jack the Ripper, reading books and looking at DVDs, in an attempt to discover who the new Ripper may be. It is a race against time before he strikes again and they have nothing to go on, except what history tells them, and matters are not helped when one of the team, trying to oust Chandler, leaks details of the case to the press.
3 "Part 3" S. J. Clarkson Ben Court & Caroline Ip 16 February 2009 8.72
Chandler has a close encounter with the murderous impostor but fails to catch or follow him; only the timely appearance of a passer-by allows him to escape with his life. His attacker's home, however contains enough clues for the final hunt to begin after the team find the Ripper's apartment. There, finding out that he assumed numerous disguises throughout their case to undermine them incognito, they deduce his most startling alias: David Cohen. With time running out fast, Chandler and Miles manage to find and stop the Ripper before he completes his recreation of the murder of Mary Jane Kelly. However, Chandler remains to look after a seriously wounded Miles while the Ripper escapes and later commits suicide.

1 "Part 1" David Evans Ben Court & Caroline Ip 11 October 2010 7.00
Since the events of the Ripper case, Chandler is now permanently stationed at Whitechapel with Miles, McCormack and Kent. Fitzgerald has been demoted to PC with his position taken over by DC Finley Mansell. Deemed failures as a result of their inability to catch the Ripper, they are low down in the pecking order in comparison to the Organised Crime Division (OCD) run by DCI Cazenove, lauded for reducing street crime to negligible. The team bemoan the fact that there are no murders. Chandler's interest is piqued, however, when Anderson informs him another big case will find him soon. A dead body is soon discovered floating in the Thames, and a series of horrific attacks follow which appear to echo the Kray twins' infamous crimes of the 1960s. Despite Buchan's timely advice, Chandler suspects the local gangster Steven Dukes to be the mastermind, only to realise that he is facing a criminal duo seeking bloody revenge for the Krays' incarceration.
2 "Part 2" David Evans Ben Court & Caroline Ip 18 October 2010 6.52
A man is murdered in an old haunt of the Kray Twins, a pub called 'The Blind Beggar' in Whitechapel, the scene of a similar murder by Ronnie Kray in 1966. The barmaid says that the killer was Jimmy Kray and that he lives down the road with his mother, Angie Brooks. Chandler and Miles interview Angie, who reveals she visited Ronnie Kray in Broadmoor and he provided her with a sperm sample with which she became pregnant with identical twins, Jimmy and Johnny Kray. Dr Llewellyn explains forensics will not show which twin is the killer, so they need to investigate the Krays the old-fashioned way. Chandler's investigations rattle the twins and he's bundled into a car for a meeting, learning that Jimmy is clearly insane and Johnny is finding it hard to control him when he turned down their offer of backing off. The team's perseverance leads them into personal danger; Miles' son is threatened and Kent is terrorized by uniformed officers on the twins' payroll. Mansell receives a wreath delivered at his home, McCormack has a gun pointed at his head and Chandler is beaten before being dumped in Epping Forest. At rock bottom, Chandler asks for Buchan's help and takes his advice to use Jimmy's insanity to separate the twins. However, learning that Fitzgerald is on the twins' payroll, the meeting with Johnny goes awry while he and his brother rake the pub with automatic fire. Inside, Chandler spots a gun and fires back. When their ammunition is spent, the twins leave. Fitzgerald is arrested soon after while warning Chandler that he is the only one trying to stop the twins and is on borrowed time.
3 "Part 3" David Evans Ben Court & Caroline Ip 25 October 2010 6.03
After the shooting, Chandler instructs Miles to drive to Anderson's house. While Anderson and Chandler talk, Miles becomes worried when the only person he can't reach is McCormack. Racing to his house, they find him hanging in his garden shed. Llewellyn rules that the death is a suicide. McCormack's death appears to mark the end of the inquiry, but it's all for show. The investigation moves to a secret location, Buchan's house, which will be the new incident room. Anderson can only hold the Krays off for three days and they are only too aware that they have no witnesses, no evidence and no leads. They link Ronnie Kray's liking for young boys with Jimmy Kray's "Blonde Boy". When the "Blonde Boy" reveals himself as a girl, the team wonder what else is fake about these twins. Managing to obtain DNA of Ronnie and Jimmy, Chandler's group manages to confirm that their Kray twins are not related to the originals. Using this information to coax Dukes' support in exposing their organization, the Krays are arrested while it is revealed that only their mother Angie knew the truth and lied to them about Ronnie being their father. However, the Krays are assassinated while in custody with Anderson taking advantage of the resulting power vacuum within the police department. Soon after, Anderson accepts Chandler's request to set up a special team.
Series 3 (2012)
Whitechapel was commissioned for a third series in March 2011. Unlike the previous two series, which were each based on a single event, the new series was split into three separate 2-part stories. The new six-episode season was shown in 2012 in its usual ITV time slot. Rupert Penry-Jones, Phil Davis and Steve Pemberton resumed their roles in the programme.

My friend James recently took a follow-up trip to Japan that basically replicated the vacation that he would have taken when we all went together last March, but was cut short by the horrible earthquake/tsunami disaster. He's been home for a few weeks now and has been posting some great photos of his time spent at Tokyo Disney. I was crossing my fingers and hoping that he had taken and would post a specific photo, and a few days ago he finally did. What's amazing is that this photo I took back in March was done when he wasn't around, so he had no idea that I had taken it. Somehow, upon his return to Disney Sea, he saw the same beautiful image in his head and the perfect ledge that would allow for the longer exposure. The result is two photos that are exactly the same, minus some personal processing preference and a slighter wider angle due to his slightly wider lens. Pretty awesome if you ask me.
Replicating the cover photo of this year's Autoshite calendar, here is RKG displaying the name of the website and its slogan 'Your motoring is our concern'.
Here is a shot inspired by an excellent image done by Tom Brown a while back of his 70-300mm Nikon lens. Taken with a Canon 35mm f/2 lens. Type L for a better view.
Here is a link to the original image done by Tom.

Concrete pillboxes built to replicate Nazi bunkers rest on an old cattle farm now an area of critical environmental concern managed by the BLM in southwest Oregon, Sept. 26, 2018. BLM video: Toshio Suzuki
A quiet oak savanna in southwest Oregon has a World War II story to tell.
It was the summer of 1942 when thousands of young American troops started arriving in Oregon to prepare for battle.
Only months prior, immediately after the Japanese bombing of Pearl Harbor and America’s entry into WWII, the U.S. Army broke ground on Camp White, a massively ambitious training ground for troops north of Medford.
The national war effort was ramping up, and from the rationing at home to the drill sergeants yelling at new draftees, the task at hand was unified: Get America prepared for war as fast as possible.
At Camp White, in the heart of the Rogue River Valley, it got loud very quick.
Construction crews worked 24 hours a day until the base, consisting of 1,300 structures, was complete. Barracks, mess halls, a railroad, full electrical grid and sewer system were all built in six months.
And then the troops arrived.
The newly reinstated 91st Division went on 91-mile-long hikes.
They fired bazookas, mortars and tanks.
And they attacked concrete pillboxes built to replicate Nazi bunkers.
Despite creating what was then Oregon’s second most populous city at 40,000 people, there are now only a few lasting structures proving Camp White ever existed. Sadly, there are even fewer first-hand memories.
The pillboxes are still standing, though. They simultaneously represent a mostly forgotten military legacy and since 2013, an opportunity for historic preservation.
After decades of private cattle farming, Camp White’s pillboxes now rest on public land.
Read the full story about the Camp White pillboxes that rest on the northeast side of Upper Table Rock, an area of critical environmental concern for the BLM: www.facebook.com/notes/blm-oregon-washington/the-wwii-leg...
