I think you can never built in too many styles. This was really just a tablescrap I built around the weird track the barrel runs in to adjust elevation. It's probably impractical for any application more serious than this one, but I like stuff like that anyway. Plus, it's been ages since I built a tank.

Roof technique is from Jaapxaap but with the round web from one of the first spider-man set (I was also inspired by jaapxaap for the colour).
For the wall, I was inspired by Luke Watkins Hutchinson.
Stumpwork is an embroidery technique that seems to have developed in England in the 17th century. There is an early example in the Willis Museum, Basingstoke, England.

For my 21st birthday Perry bought me this book.
Perry was someone I met when I first went to college and is someone I love. She was creative, artistic, fun, caring and a unique personality. Val and I shared a flat for a time with Perry and Simon in London. Perry died in a road accident. She was a teacher with young children.
I still think about Perry a lot. She had a big impact on me.
The book is a "sex manual" with drawings and photos that are not really explicit. The title "Sexual Techniques" says it all..

The "reveal" video explaining my Lego color-changing technique is now in production! Shot entirely on an iPhone, so that'll give you an idea of the production values involved here. Just enjoyed a long hot day of filming, mostly under the hot lights of my Lego workshop, although I did manage to get outside at one point, for a nice horrorshow spot of the old "ultra-v"!
Playing with some new found filters I dragged up this old shot from a shoot I did for The Vintage Clothing company a couple of yrs ago. I didn't think it worked that well until I came across this effect:

Found what I 'think' is a new technique. The black petals under the large flower uses 4 throwbot visors.

Outside temp = more than 10 degrees (24 degrees is VERY cold for here)
Engine temp = more than 10 degrees
Mileage = way more than 10 (yep Blondie is getting a lot of miles on her but I do love her so...)
MPH = more than 10 (therein lies my technique I was actually not moving when I took this but I fixed the speedometer needle to show 10.1
RPM = almost 1000
Gas = more than 10 gallons
Can you tell I didn't have much to do while on my commute to work this morning:)
Technique swap project. I decided I would do A collage because I've never really done one. I went through the magazines in my house and found a recurring theme, life and the beauties of it. The line "La Vie Est Belle" translates to life is beautiful and I truly believe that, so I used every picture I could find of life showing beauty.

According to the NHS:
‘Most sprains and strains can usually be treated with self-care techniques, such as PRICE therapy – protection, rest, ice, compression and elevation.’
‘Ankle sprain is the most common type of sprain, accounting for an estimated 1-1.5 million visits to accident and emergency (A&E) departments each year in the UK.’
The NHS is trying to instil in us that you may not need to spend half a day in A&E if you sprain something. The fact is that there is little that can be done by a doctor for sprains, it is a case of the limb being allowed to swell up and throb a bit, go purple, get less puffy, go yellow and finally just be a bit stiff. During this time you can hold out the limb limply like an injured puppy and allow everyone to do things for you that you can quite easily still do for yourself.
This is all very well for adults but parents are put in a difficult position. Children have no concept of NHS budgets and have vastly different expectations of the experience of injury. They know just exactly how much sympathy they can get out of each mishap; I think they have a spreadsheet; which quantifies the indulgence time that they can demand. So to hear your father say that your wrist can’t be broken because you would be in mortal agony and that therefore it is just a sprain and therefore there isn’t really much that the hospital can do that can’t be done at home is not what the child wants to hear. If, in previous incidents they have been grandly rushed to the hospital, been made a fuss of by bosomy nurses, come away proudly sporting a bandage that you can buy in Boots for 99p and spent the rest of the weekend being mollycoddled then they want this experience again. They are not interested in hearing that a sprain can be dealt with yourself, or that x-rays are very expensive and too many of them isn’t good for you, that they can’t give the child strong painkillers, only Calpol, which there are already ten half empty, sticky bottles of in the bathroom cabinet at home, they want the whole day long experience. It’s better than Legoland.
Divorced parents also have the added complication of the ‘other parent’, who will without doubt claim that they would have rushed the child straight to A&E, and would not have left them in such terrible agony for as long as the evil neglectful weekend custodian has done. The ‘other’ parent will never allow anyone to forget this incident, especially the child who will be encouraged to fall over more often, ideally just before the father’s weekend and to wait until getting to the father’s home before cranking up the volume of the injury. Never mind the fact that the injury happened during the school day and could have been assessed and treated during school, or straight after school by the sanctimonious parent. The father is therefore guilt-tripped into spending the day in A&E. The grief he will get from ‘self righteous parent’ for delaying this trip slightly until after a house viewing that had been pre-arranged will last for the rest of his life.
So regardless of propaganda aimed at adults telling us that sprains do not require a hospital visit, the NHS need to have some kind of marketing campaign aimed at the children. They need to go to schools and glamourize the kudos they would receive from their peers for saying “Stuff and nonsense, It’s just a sprain, I can treat that myself, I don’t need to burden the already overworked hospital staff just because I fancy a bit of cooing and sympathy from a stranger who will say I am brave. I am perfectly capable of Googling ‘how to treat a sprain. Now, where was I? Oh yes, GIVE ME ALL YOUR DINNER MONEY!’.”
If the NHS had a ‘sprain campaign’ they could reduce their influx to A&E by thousands. In conjunction with the school tour I propose a poster campaign to encourage parents to be strong, and suspicious.
This photo + the traction engines was created by what i think is a technique which i think i have discovered.I have seen no other explanation as to how i have done this.It is done in Adobe ACR and takes seconds to create.On some Photo's,especially where there are people it creates a psuedo 3d HDR effect.
Useful put-to-together for a wrist ______. Basically, I've used it for trying multiple things, but I like having the bayonet as some sort of "laser."
The U-Clip gives it a way to click on to the minifigure's hand, the spike gives it some cool "round/middle" piece, and the part that you use on top is up to you! Be creative. :)
From playing around with the new Repair Lift, 30229. See my review here: www.dagsbricks.com/2014/06/set-review-repair-lift-30229.html
Located in the heart of Kanazawa, Japan, Kenrokuen Garden is renowned as one of the country's most beautiful and historic landscape gardens. This serene scene showcases the meticulous care and traditional practices that have been preserved over centuries. Prominently featured in the image are two pine trees with their trunks wrapped in straw mats, known as "komomaki." This traditional Japanese technique dates back to the Edo period and is used to protect the trees from winter pests. The wrapping not only serves a functional purpose but also adds an aesthetic charm that enhances the garden's beauty.
The larger pine tree stands majestically with its expansive branches, while the smaller pine adds a delicate touch to the composition. The lush greenery and well-maintained grass create a tranquil atmosphere, inviting visitors to stroll through and experience the peacefulness of this historic garden. The clear sky and surrounding foliage further accentuate the natural beauty of the scene, making it a perfect spot for contemplation and relaxation.
Kenrokuen, which means "Garden of the Six Sublimities," is named for the six attributes that make it an ideal landscape garden: spaciousness, seclusion, artificiality, antiquity, water features, and panoramic views. Established in the 17th century by the Maeda clan, the garden has undergone various enhancements to maintain its grandeur and historical significance. It features several picturesque elements, including winding streams, elegant bridges, and tea houses that offer visitors a glimpse into Japan's rich cultural heritage.
Whether you're a history enthusiast, a nature lover, or simply seeking a moment of tranquility, Kenrokuen Garden offers a unique glimpse into Japan's past and its enduring love for nature. Its combination of historical practices and natural beauty makes it a must-visit destination for anyone exploring Kanazawa.

I had intended on giving Fawkes movable wings, but with the deadline fast approaching and because I wanted to give him a sculpted look I opted out of that.
Here is a simple join I thought about using for the wings. Maybe it can be useful for someone else :)

The Witches Tower build techniques. When I make these large builds I usually try to come up with a technique I haven’t seen before or try something I haven’t done before. It helps make these projects more interesting to build and makes bulk ordering parts a lot simpler.
This build I wanted to try messing around with flex tube to get the correct spacing I wanted for the bricks. I did try mixel ball joints and hinges but I quickly realised the price would get expensive quick. Flex tube just ended up being the simpler option and gave me a lot of options to attach things to.
The technique I use for the framing in the rock has been used in all my show displays. It is the best solution I have come up with to help make elevated terrain. It is very strong and light for transport. Its also quick to build and easy to change if need be.
The trouble with kissing gates is that you get forced through one narrow section which is either extremely muddy, extremely icy or both, as in this case!
7DOS, Week #15 Right Up Your Street, Technique Tuesday (more red, lol)
I took this a couple of week's ago and for some reason I like it. The composition doesn't abide by "the rules", I know, but in terms of representing aspects of my immediate neighbourhood it's right on the button.
Like much of Germany our local village has it's (slightly) scruffy and more urban aspects alongside the decorative architecture, pretty parks and kilometres of cycle paths (as per my recent image "Paintball Graffiti" www.flickr.com/photos/globalnomad01/10190910445/ ), as well as a number of vibrant industries, including some global brands.
As a lexical point of interest, an Imbiss (as you can see, this is a "China Imbiss") is basically a simple fast-food/takeaway place, traditionally it sold German food like bratwurst in a bread roll but these days you can also find Chinese, Balkan and other cuisines under the Imbiss banner.

Techniques for a spoon and a cake with serving tray. On the right, the spoon is actually a broken robot claw from a series 3 Space Villain. One of the sides snapped off, so I figured it'd work well as a utensil.
On the left is a self-explanatory cake with the gladiator shield as a tray. :)
Look at that technique! A future soccer star? Balled fists and arms out for balance, standing foot planted, good follow through and eyes obviously were right on the ball(oon). Perfect! A future David Beckham or Ronaldo? Lets hope so for England's sake! :D
This is another shot from the Christening I shot. I had to rely on autofocus because of the action and low light and it is a bit off. I had to post it though because I love his posture and his look of concentration! His outfit is pretty cool too :)
I'm not sure if anyone has come up with this technique for building square-lattice walls, but here's what I came up with while I was building the diorama.
