Thanks to LEGO_MOCkingJ (www.flickr.com/photos/132949993@N06/) for the hints which considerably improved the design.
1/35 scale.
Since there's that great minifig now there had to be the car, too. The main goal here was to get a superflat sports car that does the fig justice - which means that it should be considerably lower.
Due to the "discrimination" regarding size (minifig women in dresses are one plate taller than men, see www.flickr.com/photos/er0l/26823827544/) my male minifigs are allowed to wear platform soles which make them one layer taller - which furthermore improves the ratio between figs and vehicles. All this results in the fig being 3 layers taller (14 layers) than the car (11 layers) - one whole brick. On the other hand the fig doesn't fit into the car.
Another feature is the enlightened scanner (PF LED) which doesn't move, of course. Regarding the body one major feature is the slight wedge form of the sides.
Wheels are spinning. The rear canopy is an inlay.
100% Lego. Thanks for looking!

My first morning down Bondi Beach in 5 weeks and it was supercold - I cannot remember the last time that my hands were cold in Australia - this morning they were and the water was superflat. However this doggie was oblivious to all that and his whole world was that ball and its movement and he just stared at it willing it to move.

I managed to squeeze in the comet 62P/Tsuchinshan (on the left) and supernova SN2024gy in NGC4216 (brightest on the right) into the same frame. The supernova is the star like object just to the left of the core of the galaxy.

This evening the comet was near the second magnitude star Hamal (α Aries), which made for a nice juxtaposition.

Or is it a lion?...;-)

Skulptur von Takashi Murakami aus dem Jahr 2011.
Die ca. 3 m hohe Skulptur zeigt eine überlebensgroße weibliche Anime-/Manga-Figur, die auf den japanischen Otaku-Kulturkreis und die Ästhetik der "Superflat"-Bewegung, die Murakami mitbegründet hat, Bezug nimmt.
Sie ist eine Auseinandersetzung mit der Darstellung von Sexualität und Macht in der modernen japanischen Popkultur, insbesondere der sogenannten "mother complex" Thematik in Manga und Anime, wo überdimensionale, dominante weibliche Figuren im Mittelpunkt stehen.
九Ｏ年代末展開的超扁平（Superflat）運動，在村上隆一手主導之下，巧妙結合大眾藝術與流行文化，独立開創了自己的流派。過去在囯際藝術界普遍缺席，被認為是美式文化贗品的日本當代藝術，如今在藝拍上反而成了救世主，成交紀錄屢攀新高，儼然暴走的酷斯拉。長期關注區域全球化現象，曾獲得日本囯際交流基金會獎金的評論家Adrian Favell，觀察到九Ｏ年代初的泡沫經濟崩盤，讓日本社會再度落入二戰後的信心危機，現實的幻滅造就了人們往二次元世界遁逃的契機，原本被視為次文化的動漫反而風生水起，變成”酷”日本的最主要輸出品。「Before and After Superflat」是少數完整，收集歸納此一藝術運動的重要書著，封面特意捨棄了位居超扁平中心的村上隆與奈良美智，選擇了更激進的会田誠做為代表。

A lightning rod between different cultural valencies (high/low, ancient/modern, oriental/occidental), Takashi Murakami has stated that the artist is someone who understands the borders between worlds and who makes an effort to know them. With his distinctive "Superflat" style and ethos, which employs highly refined classical Japanese painting techniques to depict a super-charged mix of Pop, animé and otaku content within a flattened representational picture-plane, he moves freely within an ever-expanding field of aesthetic issues and cultural inspirations. Parallel to utopian and dystopian themes, he recollects and revitalizes narratives of transcendence and enlightenment, often involving outsider-savants. Mining religious and secular subjects favored by the so-called Japanese "eccentrics" or non-conformist artists of the Early Modern era commonly considered to be counterparts of the Western Romantic tradition, Murakami situates himself within their legacy of bold and lively individualism in a manner that is entirely his own and of his time.
