Le scale non sono il mio soggetto preferito, anche perchè non sono bravo come Stefano in questo genere fotografico. Mi è capitata però questa scala che sembrava mi invitasse a fotografarla. Troppo pigro per "scalarla", ho deciso allora di fotografarla da sotto, dal pianoterra.
April 15, 1978. Erie 414237 has been converted for scale test service for the MOW department. It's seen at Meadville, Pennsylvania.
These scale where a gift for My Husband Ian for Father's day, another good find, I believe these scale were used to measure out medicine back in the day.
The kettle did boil, I forgot all about it. I think that's a blond thing lol.
I was planning on doing some washing tomorrow but it looks like it will rain all weekend so I wont be able to get it dry so it will have to wait.

The Blood Moon is a no frills starfighter with no explosives, energy weapons, or terribly robust shields. Its job is punching new ventilation shafts through enemy ships with its two powerful cannons, and letting the vacuum of space do the dirty work. It relies on its speed to get away as it has little defense against return fire.
I built this over the course of about 5 weeks. The ideas that led to it started off long before that, though, as I was toying with an idea for a drone fighter. I wanted to revisit the color scheme that I used in my cyberpunk hopper car. Dark red as the main color earned it the working title Blood Moon. I got stuck on that for awhile, then started over with a very different design in a different color scheme, now featuring a cockpit. After going away on vacation for a bit, I returned and started over again, returning to the original color scheme, and something a bit closer to the original concept than the direction I'd started to veer off into with the first restart.
On top of my original sketch, I took some inspiration from present day lifting body aircraft. With the exception of the tail, the side profile has a deliberate airfoil shape.
The thing that finally got me going somewhere, after spinning my wheels for a while, was the #69754 tile shooter, which I used in the engines of my previous spacecraft, the Astral Vortex.
The cockpit came next. I really wanted to put the nose way out in front on this one, because I've done a lot of hiding it between cannons or Vic Viper prongs on past builds, which has let me focus less on the shaping. I originally wanted to brick-build a sleeker version of the classic 2507 windscreen in trans neon green. I didn't have those hinged wing parts that make the side in the right color, so I temporarily used black, and by the time I got the parts in my intended color it had evolved and I liked the black better.
Another of my frequent habits, showing up in nearly every spacecraft I've built since the Ugly Duckling, is using a lot of white brick in my hulls. I like that look, and I certainly don't plan to abandon it, but this time around I decided to use none at all for the sake of trying something different. The goal was to achieve a darker grittier look, while still keeping the high contrast that comes with spanning a wide range of shades.
This is one of my more complicated builds in terms of weird out-of-system geometry. There are few 90 degree angles to be found, anywhere. They only visible part with studs not at some weird out of system angle from the frame is the small recessed panel in front of the intake below the black pipe.

The 45 degree engines were one of the features retained from the original sketch. These were tricky, as I wanted to make the exhaust nozzles angled, while keeping the ridges on top straight to make it clear that they were cut at an angle as opposed to just pointing the wrong direction. The 45 degree tiles made the angle easy, but fitting all of that into the extremely tight space behind the intakes was another matter, as adding the vertical tiles between the triangle tiles requires a bit of extra structure.
Eupholus linnei Scale. Its funny when you think you have cleaned the insects and when you see it thrue a 50x its still dirty. Tried to clean it with brush, water and isopropanol 99,9%.

After Several Months Of Ill Health,Bad Weather And Loss Of Interest, I Was Finally Persuaded To Venture Out By My Good Friend Kevin Shaw, Ended Up In Hebden Near Scale Haw Force In North Yorkshire, Which Was Ideal As It Involved Very Little Walking.. This Might Be A Nice Little Waterfall To Visit In The Autumn Where More Colour Will Be Available.Thanks For Taking The Time To View My First Post In (Unbelievably)Eight Months.
A sole visitor walks on the plateau in front of Ad Deir, the so-called Monastery, in Petra, Jordan. The impressive façade of 47 m width and 48 m height, and the large hall behind it were carved deeply out of the mountain around the mid-1st century AD. The Arabic name "Ad Deir" (the Monastery) was given to the place by native Bedouins because of the crosses inscribed on the interior back wall during its Christian use in Byzantine times. The upper order with the broken (open) pediment, which frames a circular tholos structure with a conic roof crowned by an urn, follows the model of the Khazneh (Treasury). But the large hall contained no tombs, and traces of a later removed betyl were found in the raised niche of the back wall together with flat wide benches on both sides of the rock chamber, suggesting that Ad Deir was a cultic place rather than a mausoleum.

Southfield Town Center, shot from Lawrence Tech University campus, approximately one-fifth mile distance.
One of Lake State Railway's new road slug sets is seen through the window of what remains of the scale house in the old D&M yard at Alpena.
Here's a quick shot of the hallway, as you come through the front door.
I can almost hear my Mother in the kitchen making dinner.
Being a low income family back then, we had very little furniture, so this is a fairly accurate recreation of what the house looked like.
From floor to ceiling, it's 4 inches.
In the background is my old, standard Pullman design at 40 (42) studs. In the foreground is the new SAD (Scaled to Actual Dimensions) Pullman design at 60 (62).
People are going to accuse me of compensating for something.
testing out the focus calibration on the Lubitel 166b. This shot taken at 2m mark on the scale at f3.5. Everything lined up perfectly which was a surprise. I often wondered what to trust my eye (in the not so easy focus magnifier) or the distance scale.
It is clear to me now I should trust the distance scale.

The view you get to see through view finder is even more stunning. Making macro is always difficult,fun and exciting.

Ho affrontato la mia vertigine per scattare questa foto.
I coped with my vertigo to take this photo.
