My entry to Lego Technic BMW Rebrick Challenge, the BMW DO22, a one wheeled turbine vessel of speed and maneuverability. Functioning steering, and kickstand

Update to my 6-wide technical. Improvements include wheel arches, fewer exposed studs, higher ride height, detachable tailgate, and a new engine.
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 ;-)

My entry for the Military Build Competition:
A wheeled crane converted to a gun truck and mobile urban sniper nest.
The model features steering on all 3 axles and the crane can still fully rotate and function as normally, despite the additional armored baskets.
Fun little build, will add more renders tomorrow.
I love 8051 set, but I believe that wheels from 8420 set make it look even better, don't you think so?:)
Railway bogies with working shock absorbers.

Lego Technic 8258 MOD to 8x8 (8WD), Pneumatics (v2) with compressor, bigger crane (three instead of two upper sections), opening doors, ...
Here a rendering (bluerender) of the LDD file.
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.
Split Tone is an editing technique where the shadows are toned one color, and the highlights a second color. Split toning is often used with color grading in the media to give a scene a desired look and feel.
An homage to the classic space 886 set.
Lego system built onto a technic chassis. Has working steering and the radar dish rotation is driven through a differential from the rear wheels.
The 886+ is a single-seater exploration and reconnaissance vehicle, designed for zero-atmosphere, low gravity planetoids.
Power is supplied by a large 500kW replaceable lithium-ion battery pack located behind the drivers seat. In a 0.3G environment, this gives it an effective range of over 500KM and a top speed of 200KPH. Although this speed is inadvisable as there is no seatbelt.
The main air tanks have enough for a 24hr trip and there's an emergency 1 hour tank stowed underneath the dash.
It also comes equipped with a fast-burst RF transmitter, adjustable height steering wheel and a side tray for storage of moon soil samples.
Axle Mosaic.
Thanks to Carson Hart to give it a different shape, it does look better than the previous version.
An attempt to make a more "filled in" sphere with #3 Technic axle connectors. I ran out of them in light grey/bley before I could finish the entire sphere, but I got far enough to convince myself it basically works. I noticed the areas where 3 connectors come together had a tendency to pull apart a little... Could be that the clutch power on some parts weren't as good, that the sphere needed to be finished to be really structurally sound, or that this design isn't 100% legal.

This morning, I took my second technical walk with the Nikon Z8. In an effort to get more familiar with its functions, I decided to switch things up and mounted my trusted Nikon 80-200mm f/2.8 FX AF-S ED lens using the FTZ II Mount Adapter. Despite its hefty weight, this lens has always delivered sharp results and beautiful bokeh—even under the shadowy canopies of trees. I hope the photos speak for themselves and you’ll agree after having a look.
As I stepped out from the Charnwood Water car park, swans and a variety of ducks approached me, expecting breakfast. Some of the swans even reminded me—by gently touching—that they were waiting to be fed. I spotted a pair of Mandarin ducks, known as a perching duck species, but decided to leave them undisturbed, knowing how shy they tend to be. I made a mental note to return to them on my way back.
The woodlands surrounding Charnwood Water were in full spring bloom—cherry and plum trees had turned the area into a painter’s palette. I noticed dew drops gently collecting on their petals in the crisp morning air. I captured some of my first images of the day here among the Cherry Blossoms, hoping to share a sense of their quiet beauty.
While the squirrels were surprisingly elusive, I spotted one mischievously peeking at me from high up in an ancient oak tree. It kept its distance, still unfamiliar with my lens, but I managed to get a fairly close shot at 200mm. As always, nature photography is a lesson in patience. Those who wait are often rewarded.
Blue tits were flitting about in small groups, clearly busy with nesting preparations. One male—at least I believe it was a male—paused briefly along the walking trail, singing its heart out. Surely calling for a mate.
After photographing the squirrel, I turned my attention to a Wood Pigeon that allowed me to get unusually close. I took the opportunity to capture a soft portrait of it, with a background of warm greens and yellows rendered into pleasing bokeh.
On my way back to the car, I saw the Mandarin duck pair being fed by some generous passers-by. Bathed in morning light, their vibrant colors were on full display. I finally took several shots of them and continued testing the Z8’s AF Subject Detection for the second time. It's definitely a major upgrade over the D850, and I know it will take practice to master. But I’m optimistic—it’s a journey I look forward to.
Mandarin Duck in the UK - Distribution & Population
Introduction to the UK: Mandarin Ducks are native to East Asia, including regions like southeastern Siberia, Korea, eastern China, and Japan. They were introduced to the UK in the 20th century, primarily for ornamental purposes in wildfowl collections. Escapees from these collections began breeding in the wild around the 1930s, leading to the establishment of a feral population.
Current Population: As of recent estimates, the UK hosts a population of approximately 7,000 Mandarin Ducks. This population has been increasing over time and is considered valuable, especially since the species' numbers have declined in its native range.
Geographical Distribution: Mandarin Ducks are primarily found in the southern regions of England, particularly in areas with park lakes and other wetlands surrounded by overhanging trees. They are also present in parts of North England, Wales, and Scotland.
Habitat Preferences
Breeding Sites: Mandarin Ducks prefer breeding in densely wooded areas near shallow lakes, marshes, or ponds. They are known for nesting in tree cavities, making them one of the UK's few "perching duck" species.
Winter Habitats: During the winter months, they can be found in marshes, flooded fields, and open rivers. While they prefer freshwater environments, they may also inhabit coastal lagoons and estuaries.
I've captured some unforgettable moments with my camera, and I hope you feel the same joy viewing these images as I did while shooting them.
