this is one of 13 pics (!!!) discussing a bit minifig scale, focusing on reviving a car scale smaller than 6 wide in a fashion similar to the classic town 4 wide scale.

 

Scroll through the pics for a full read up if interested.

 

This is all my own opinion based on historic facts found in documentaries, interviews and the web. Its a suggestion in total, so pls dont feel offended if i hint out that Speed Champion usgage for professional AFOL layouts is a bit wrong ^^ I also want to set focus on a new building technique for cars that i call the "bar n clip" / "no fig".

Hope you enjoy, feedback and even heavy critique welcome and apprectiated :)

My tiny pond, little more than a 6x4 puddle, provides the most amazing opportunities to capture birds as they drink and bathe. This Scaled Quail was taking a sip when I caught her and her reflection in the water.

Minifig scale 7 studs wide coach, I took inspiration from Mercedes Coaches and colour scheme from a bus company of my hometown.

Callipepla squamata - What are you looking at?

Buses behind 47-20 include a similar special needs IC CE, 31-10 and a full size 77 passenger, 14-18

Zebrafish scales can give insight into how lymphatic vessels are important for tissue growth and development. This picture of an anesthetized, adult zebrafish was taken using a powerful microscope that uses lasers to illuminate the fish. The image shows fish scales with lymphatic vessels in green and scale structures in blue and magenta.

This end view show both the truck loading dock on the left and the narrower rail loading dock on the left.

 

I got a DPM factory kit #506 called Gripp’s Luggage Mfg over twenty years ago, but it sat in my parts box with various plastic and metal construction materials that I use for scale buildings. Last year I built the building shell and roof plus the loading dock for trucks, painted them, and then constructed a custom base. This year I painted all those window frames and doors scattered around the six sides and installed clear plastic window glazing. Recently I scratch-built a small loading dock to serve the rail spur and added a sign on the roof.

 

Like most DPM structure kits, the factory is a two story brick building with details that suggest North American late 19th century to mid-20th century construction. The factory is just big enough to actually be served by a railroad and could be almost any kind of warehouse or manufacturing plant that doesn’t require a lot of obvious external equipment. The factory could produce clothing, shoes, metal products, wood products, drugs, cosmetics, toys, plastic products, electronics, small appliances, canned foods, baked goods, or be a small printing plant.

 

There are more esoteric possibilities: since the town is in northern New Mexico set in the 1950’s, perhaps the products have something to do with the Atomic Energy Commission’s plant at Los Alamos or whatever happened near Roswell a few years earlier. Both mysterious locations aren’t very far away. Maybe the sign on the roof says it all, but the folks who work here won’t say a word.

 

It's interesting to try out different scales on the models. If they have kept some of the character after all details are gone, and almost reduced to something abstract, I'm happy with composition. This one loses a lot when reduced, but still better than what I expected.

SCALE is the Topic for 28 November 2010

 

Lake Balmorhea, Reeves County, TX

Scaled close to the height of minifigures.

Called also Fig wax scale, in this image on a Frangipani leaf. What you see is the heavy waxy cover of a female that remains a "grub" (juvenile form) without obvious legs, eyes or antennae that stays protected and lays eggs. A simple life. Found occasionally locally on Frangipani leaves (pictured), and on the leaves of coconut palms. I have not yet seen a male: a 1-2 mm tiny winged insect that does not feed and lives a day or two.

For Our Daily Challenge: SCALE is the Topic for 28 November 2010

 

OK, I know when the bark starts to come off the tree these things are called scales, right? It comes off in scaly sections? I need you to agree with me because the dictionary is not being helpful! Anyway, here is my interpretation for "scales"! Voila!

I used three different colours of face flannel (wash cloth) to make some towels for the bathroom. Hot pink, baby pink and lilac. I used the edge where there was a pattern. This also meant I didn't have to do any sewing as it didn't fray! I also made a bath mat and blind (which I will show properly tomorrow when I finish the shower curtain, and post pics :)

William praised his goodwife for the delicious meal. Everything looked and smelled delicious. A true feast.

Federal Square, Worcester, MA -- September 18, 2011

Worth the scramble up the left-hand side to get to the upper reaches but care needed if it's wet and greasy, which it often is.

Found this old image in my files, thought it was pretty funny and worth sharing.

I might still play around with the edit on this. But it I try my best and it was fun to do :)

I got the idea of having a big me and a little me randomly. I thought I could do it, so I whipped out my camera and decided to stand on the bathroom scale for good measure :) I ended up looking more frightened of myself than I intended, but its okay. I believe my oddly shaped feet and toes are enough to frighten anyone ;)

 

Hoping everyone is having a superb day! I can't believe my birthday is tomorrow. It doesn't feel real...

 

PS- My hair is pulled up into a bun. I just now realized that it looks a little odd..
