It is a little bit late for Febrovery, but, in space, there are no calenders, are they? (and, if yes, then you should know that this message had to travel really long distance, ... ehhh... from remote space station)
Originally, built for truck trial competition (as B-plan vehicle), but soon disassembled because it's performance was not "good".
Technically it is Nutyrez's Banshee with XL motors.
Featured a working steering wheel.
This is a comparison of two identical images in terms of the object, angle of view and of post-processing (Raw Converter 3 and Luminar 4). Identical is also the film simulation (Classic Negative Film). What is different is that this image is a straight forward still. The other one is the result of an in-camera HDR composition.

Yeah, technically she doesn't exist in the DCU right now I don't think, which is such a crime, but it sounds like a lot of businessy mumbo jumbo. I'm keeping her in the same album, though, just for ease of use.
I tried to keep her color scheme and core outfit pieces in tact as best I could, but I'm not tremendously sure how I feel about it. Definitely one to be improved as new parts come.
This photo may have technical deficiencies (some of the detail blown out, questionable composition, not quite level, etc), but we've kept it for 35 years because it was taken when our eldest son was four days old and we had just got him home from hospital.

You might have heard about the Tachikoma project. 10.000 votes and Lego will consider releasing it as a set. Or it would, if the Tachikoma wasn't from a series that features guns and other adult stuff.
Since I'm not going to get this project canceled with 5000 votes already under the belt, here's a rework of the model, so it has no connection to the GitS franchise. (Four-legged robots aren't exactly original to the GitS franchise, ever since mechanicows were invented by Nikola Tesla. But I digress.) This is still a work in progress, but I'd like your input on what should or shouldn't be included in the new model.
TLDR:
Let me know if this is to your taste, and how it can be improved.

One way to put a hinged top on a box is with Technic.
Part of an ongoing series called Boxes ... making useful or decorative containers out of LEGO.
Top left: I think of this as the official LEGO hinge, as seen in sets like 40118 Buildable Brick Box. It's bulky but very strong.
Top right: Opposing modified plates joined with a pin. Fairly strong and closes neatly.
Bottom left: Opposing modified plates, without using the relatively new inverted one. The opening exactly fits two opposing cheese slopes.
Bottom right: Modified 2x2 plate pinned to a 1x2 Technic brick. Also quite strong, but leaves a gap at the back of the box.
Production: 105 (1964-1969)
Specific history of this car:
GT40 P/1079 was delivered new from Ford Advanced Vehicles (FAV) as one of the few privately entered factory built lightweight racing cars to Mr Jean Blaton from Brussels, Belgium. Compared to the road cars (which are today often rebuilt and used as race cars), the competition cars had a stronger race spec engine, a smaller, but improved clutch and a 140 litre fuel tank. They also featured a lighter flywheel and 25% stiffer suspension all around. Further the race cars were missing its interior trim, the door pockets, a radio, the heater and exhaust silencers compared to the normal road cars. As this car was one of the very late cars built by John Wyer, it belongs to the last series of GT40 which had slightly modified body parts and was lighter than any of the earlier cars.
The original invoice, which comes with the car, proves that Blaton received the yellow car on the 20th April 1968 in Ostende, Belgium for the Ecurie Francorchamps. This was just in time to put the car on a transporter for the 1.000 km race in Monza. The drivers Willy Mairesse and “Jean Beurlys” (the racing name of Jean Blaton) qualified the car 6th on the grid, but had to stop the race after 89 laps due to wheel problems. The where still qualified 7th overall and 2nd in class! The next race for 1079 were the 1.000 km of Spa-Francorchamps, were the car was entered by the Belgium Claude Dubois in the name of the Ecurie Francorchamps, still in its Belgium racing colors. The car was again driven by Mairesse and “Beurlys” who qualified the car in third position, only beaten by the local hero Jacky Ickx in another GT40 and a experimental Ford on pole. The start went very well but the Ecurie Francorchamps had to retire after 45 laps.
For the 1968 24 hours of Le Mans, the car was once more entered by Claude Dubois in the name of his team Ecurie Claude Dubois. The original and stamped (18 March 1968) entry form and application forms which are coming with the car, are stating Dubois, “Beurlys” and Mairesse as drivers. After some technical problems during the tests, the ended up in qualifying, now with a fresh engine, 10th on the grip. Shortly before the start of the 24 hours race it started to rain. Mairesse drove off first, but lost the car in the rain and crashed it at high speed on the Mulsanne as a door flew open.
After the accident the car remained untouched for a while before it went to Switzerland where it was restored. In the late eighties/early nineties the car was sold to a French based investment funds including some other high valued cars. The car was then offered at a French auction in 1994 and also stayed in France until the last owner bought it in the late nineties. During a further restoration the car has been fully stripped and some wrong parts have been replaced or corrected. The car was then showed to Ronnie Spain, author of the book “GT40: An individual history and race record”, who immediately recognised the car and stated it in writing as the original, ex-Jean Blaton car.
Since then, the GT40 was successfully driven at several Le Mans Classic races since 2002. It also raced on various Tour Auto events and Goodwood Revivals with great success. 1079 is probably one of the best documented GT40 race cars until today. Not only is there a more than 400 pages expertise by Ronnie Spain, but also a full technical expertise certifying the authenticity of the chassis. We are very proud to offer this rare and original racing Ford GT40 in race-ready condition. Only very seldom do original competition GT40 appear on the market as most of the cars which are found in historic motorsport are modified road cars.

Showing current (18 Feb 2019) handling of Collections in the Euro-UK version of the website: designs from the related Collection seem to have reverted to the original (non-)arrangement (i.e. the chronologically earliest 3 designs) rather than the 1,2,3 positions that we were able to award them.
There seems to be an additional design slot awarded to the very popular, which is your most popular design [this design is one of my most popular, and I have not seen this on others]. In my observation: if you don't have one that meets the criteria that 7th slot goes to some other designer.
Summarizing: the array is: three design slots dedicated to the chronologically earliest designs in your Collection; one slot for your popular design (if some criterion met); three (or four) slots for designs from other designers. The latter might be cued in on tag words - haven't examined yet.

Looking back on some images taken on a very cold winter day in January 2015, I chose one of the old, digitally-dusty frames to process as it had been neglected for far too long. In Port Dalhousie (technically, the Regional City of St Catharines, Ontario), the Welland Canal entrance from Lake Ontario offers protection to ships making the transit via a pair of piers that extend out into the lake some 1000 metres. On the East side of the East pier, a man-made spit has been made from materials dredged during both canal construction and the periodic maintenance operations. Toward the far extent of the spit, sumac has established itself, albeit in a somewhat stunted form due to the constant winds off Lake Ontario. In the winter, those same wind deposit fine mist from the lake on the sumac branches and occasional seals in snow from a recent snowfall, as seen here. I spent time time out here freezing various appendages as I crawled around with tripod and camera to capture the scene on this day. - JW

A type of steering system that allows for tight wheel wells. This is the narrowest I was able to build it; roughly 5.5 studs wide between the inner wheel tips. Animated demonstration here.
And yes, it can be motorised: youtu.be/ue55xXgIHiE
I got yesterday many Mails about the Eyebrow-Building Technic of my latest Lego Model, which can be seen here: flic.kr/p/Fw2oG4
It´s not that complicated, you need a Lego thread (the thin one) and put a few knots in both sides, than try to cram those knots into the tiny holes of the Minifig arms, so that the arms doesn´t fell of. Put this construct between plates and fix it as near as possible to the plates, because if you let them hang down, it would makes a very depressed face expression :D
Afterwards you must hide the rest of the thread under the other parts of the head.
I hope you can understand what i mean :D
Try it by yourself ;-)

Had fun with this one. Used Technic pieces to create this look. I used wings to create the lace curtains.
"A technique which combines multiple images taken at different focus distances to give a resulting image with a greater depth of field.
Especially helpful in macro."
Taking a break from my Smash Bros. series to post an idea that made me laugh. I'm sure it's useful in a Southwest living room moc, but technically, this is made up entirely of minifig parts.
The Technical College was built to commemorate the Diamond Jubilee of Queen Victoria in 1897.
At a public meeting in January 1897, it was decided to commemorate Queen Victoria's diamond jubilee by erecting a new technical college. The local community raised £1000, and with a government grant of £2000 work began on a site granted by the city council in the Central Gardens.
Some basic knowledge of technic is required. Unless your brick collecton is completely insane, you -will- have to buy parts to complete this model.
