Neon Techniques & Handling, Samuel C. Miller, 1988 edition.
I went through a period in my sign painting career where I became enamored with neon. I knew an old glass bender named Jimmy (J.R.) Rogers who started teaching me to create neon. During that time period I bought this book to learn from. While I have done a little glass bending under the tutelage of Mr. Rogers, I must confess I never learned enough to make a living at it.
Kündekâri, an important woodwork technique, is made by combining small wooden pieces in geometrical shapes to create larger surface areas. It was applied in Fatımi and Memluk artworks after the 12th century, but the richest examples occur in Anatolian Seljuk and Ottoman arts. Most often used for window shutters, door wings, lecterns and minbars, the best examples that still exist are the minbars of Siirt Great Mosque, Konya Alaettin Mosque, Manisa Great Mosque and Bursa Great Mosque.

Ahşap işçiliğinin en önemli tekniklerinden biri olan kündekâri, geometrik biçimlerde kesilmiş küçük ahşap parçaların, büyük bir yüzey oluşturmak üzere birbirine geçmeli olarak birleştirilmesidir. 12. yüzyıldan sonra Fatımi ve Memluk sanatlarında uygulanmış, en zengin örnekleri ise Anadolu Selçuklu ve Osmanlılarda görülmüştür. Pencere kapakları, kapı kanatları, vaaz kürsüleri ve özellikle minberlerde kullanılan bu tekniğin en güzel örnekleri arasında Siirt Ulu Camii, Konya Alaettin Camii, Manisa Ulu Camii ve Bursa Ulu Camii minberleri bulunmaktadır.

Northern Harrier | Hunting Technique
Smaller than the more common Red-tailed Hawk generally hunting from the periphery of woodlands, Northern Harriers, aka marsh hawk or ring-tailed hawk, prefer to fly low over open habitats, listening to prey activity below by twisting and turning abruptly over tangles of grasses and shrubs. Here, a male Harrier is seen flying over an open field into 50 km/h sustained wind gusting to nearly 100 km/h and from time to time touching down in search of small rodents, principally mice and voles. In addition to single action shots, some progressive composite images illustrating the Harrier’s sight and/or sound-based hunting strategy are provided throughout this photo album. According to “All About Birds”, Northern Harriers breed throughout Canada but generally do not winter north of the CAN-USA border. Granted, Kingston is on the northern fringe of the Harrier wintering range, however, the current mild winter and lack of snow in Southeastern Ontario may have influenced this bird’s innate desired to migrate south

Just for sharing...here is a "technique tag" I'll be teaching to beginning stampers. This uses kissing and masking! I used two of my favorites...Raindrop background and Old French Writing. TFL!
Found in a bin of parts left over from some old/abandoned WIPs.
Pretty standard fair but I thought someone might enjoy seeing it.
Just love techniques and so glad that Shari is once again working with distress inks.
I used red brick, weathered wood and dusty concord distress inks for this card. The thing I love about these inks is that the colour only gets better as it dries.
I edited this picture by messing around with the contrast section in order to emphasize the shadow on the right side of her face. This also really brought out her freckles which was my main goal. I also used the healing brush tool to help with the bags under her eyes as well as on her lips!

Collect these, and eight 1x1 tiles with clips.
Put the clips around the octagonal bit (which needs a name... I wanna say Terry)
and then put the rest together.
If you say someone else came up with this first, I'm gonna get depressed.
I also played around with the Pythagoras theorem and found the two practical values to use:
5 ( 6L in LEGO the first L is the 0 position ) and 7.071 { 5.sqrt(2) } rounded to 7 ( 8L in LEGO the first L is the 0 position )
7 ( 8L in LEGO the first L is the 0 position ) and 9.899 { 7.sqrt(2) } rounded to 10 ( 11L in LEGO the first L is the 0 position )
[attachment=15920:IMG-20150911-WA0001.jpg]
The first Pythagoras pair used is the top left with the 6L black axle and the two no. 4 connectors. Not a fan of this method as it is a bit over sized and if you build the parts rigid into you construction with support from the top and the back of the no. 4 connector it might ever so slightly bend the axle or damage your parts.
The second pair method one is the 11L beam again not a fan of this method as it will pull ever so slightly as it is actually a bit under sized.
The second pair method two and most favoured by me personal is the one I like most yes there will be a small 0.1mm gap in the gray axle but it is really small. I like this method better because I can brace the no 4 connectors from the back and from the tops.
Example of noise reduction using multiple exposures.
These are crops at 800% from the sky of a photo taken in daylight with CirPol, ND and ND Grad filters giving a 1.3 second exposure.
A digicam owner would no doubt be pleased with the result in frame one, but the result from averaging 4 frames from a DSLR is quite remarkably smooth! Reducing the noise effectively increases the dynamic range, giving more scope for post-processing.
See Sean McHugh's wonderful tutorials for more information.
For this i used a black card to cover the front of the lens. Within the black card i cut out the shape of a heart so that once the correct aperture was set, the blurred lights in the background would be presented accordingly
Far from the most interesting shot I've ever taken, but this was mainly an exercise in HDR processing, which I haven't really done in a while. Comments appreciated!

Fresco (plural frescos or frescoes) is a technique of mural painting executed upon freshly-laid, or wet lime plaster. Water is used as the vehicle for the pigment to merge with the plaster, and with the setting of the plaster, the painting becomes an integral part of the wall. The word fresco (Italian: affresco) is derived from the Italian adjective fresco meaning "fresh", and may thus be contrasted with fresco-secco or secco mural painting techniques, which are applied to dried plaster, to supplement painting in fresco. The fresco technique has been employed since antiquity and is closely associated with Italian Renaissance painting.
______________________________
A mural is any piece of artwork painted or applied directly on a wall, ceiling or other large permanent surface. A distinguishing characteristic of mural painting is that the architectural elements of the given space are harmoniously incorporated into the picture.
Some wall paintings are painted on large canvases, which are then attached to the wall (e.g., with marouflage). Whether these works can be accurately called "murals" is a subject of some controversy in the art world, but the technique has been in common use since the late 19th century.
HISTORY
Murals of sorts date to Upper Paleolithic times such as the paintings in the Chauvet Cave in Ardèche department of southern France (around 30,000 BC). Many ancient murals have survived in Egyptian tombs (around 3150 BC), the Minoan palaces (Middle period III of the Neopalatial period, 1700-1600 BC) and in Pompeii (around 100 BC - AD 79).
During the Middle Ages murals were usually executed on dry plaster (secco). In Italy, circa 1300, the technique of painting of frescos on wet plaster was reintroduced and led to a significant increase in the quality of mural painting.
In modern times, the term became more well-known with the Mexican "muralista" art movement (Diego Rivera, David Siqueiros, or José Orozco). There are many different styles and techniques. The best-known is probably fresco, which uses water-soluble paints with a damp lime wash, a rapid use of the resulting mixture over a large surface, and often in parts (but with a sense of the whole). The colors lighten as they dry. The marouflage method has also been used for millennia.
Murals today are painted in a variety of ways, using oil or water-based media. The styles can vary from abstract to trompe-l'œil (a French term for "fool" or "trick the eye"). Initiated by the works of mural artists like Graham Rust or Rainer Maria Latzke in the 1980s, trompe-l'oeil painting has experienced a renaissance in private and public buildings in Europe. Today, the beauty of a wall mural has become much more widely available with a technique whereby a painting or photographic image is transferred to poster paper or canvas which is then pasted to a wall surface (see wallpaper, Frescography) to give the effect of either a hand-painted mural or realistic scene.
TECHNIQUE
In the history of mural several methods have been used:
A fresco painting, from the Italian word affresco which derives from the adjective fresco ("fresh"), describes a method in which the paint is applied on plaster on walls or ceilings. The buon fresco technique consists of painting in pigment mixed with water on a thin layer of wet, fresh, lime mortar or plaster. The pigment is then absorbed by the wet plaster; after a number of hours, the plaster dries and reacts with the air: it is this chemical reaction which fixes the pigment particles in the plaster. After this the painting stays for a long time up to centuries in fresh and brilliant colors.
Fresco-secco painting is done on dry plaster (secco is "dry" in Italian). The pigments thus require a binding medium, such as egg (tempera), glue or oil to attach the pigment to the wall.
Mezzo-fresco is painted on nearly-dry plaster, and was defined by the sixteenth-century author Ignazio Pozzo as "firm enough not to take a thumb-print" so that the pigment only penetrates slightly into the plaster. By the end of the sixteenth century this had largely displaced the buon fresco method, and was used by painters such as Gianbattista Tiepolo or Michelangelo. This technique had, in reduced form, the advantages of a secco work.
MATERIAL
In Greco-Roman times, mostly encaustic colors applied in a cold state were used.
Tempera painting is one of the oldest known methods in mural painting. In tempera, the pigments are bound in an albuminous medium such as egg yolk or egg white diluted in water.
In 16th-century Europe, oil painting on canvas arose as an easier method for mural painting. The advantage was that the artwork could be completed in the artist’s studio and later transported to its destination and there attached to the wall or ceiling. Oil paint can be said to be the least satisfactory medium for murals because of its lack of brilliance in colour. Also the pigments are yellowed by the binder or are more easily affected by atmospheric conditions. The canvas itself is more subject to rapid deterioration than a plaster ground. Different muralists tend to become experts in their preferred medium and application, whether that be oil paints, emulsion or acrylic paints applied by brush, roller or airbrush/aerosols. Clients will often ask for a particular style and the artist may adjust to the appropriate technique.
A consultation usually leads to a detailed design and layout of the proposed mural with a price quote that the client approves before the muralist starts on the work. The area to be painted can be gridded to match the design allowing the image to be scaled accurately step by step. In some cases the design is projected straight onto the wall and traced with pencil before painting begins. Some muralists will paint directly without any prior sketching, preferring the spontaneous technique.
Once completed the mural can be given coats of varnish or protective acrylic glaze to protect the work from UV rays and surface damage.
As an alternative to a hand-painted or airbrushed mural, digitally printed murals can also be applied to surfaces. Already existing murals can be photographed and then be reproduced in near-to-original quality.
The disadvantages of pre-fabricated murals and decals are that they are often mass-produced and lack the allure and exclusivity of an original artwork. They are often not fitted to the individual wall sizes of the client and their personal ideas or wishes can not be added to the mural as it progresses. The Frescography technique, a digital manufacturing method (CAM) invented by Rainer Maria Latzke addresses some of the personalisation and size restrictions.
Digital techniques are commonly used in advertisements. A "wallscape" is a large advertisement on or attached to the outside wall of a building. Wallscapes can be painted directly on the wall as a mural, or printed on vinyl and securely attached to the wall in the manner of a billboard. Although not strictly classed as murals, large scale printed media are often referred to as such. Advertising murals were traditionally painted onto buildings and shops by sign-writers, later as large scale poster billboards.
SIGNIFICANCE OF MURALS
Murals are important in that they bring art into the public sphere. Due to the size, cost, and work involved in creating a mural, muralists must often be commissioned by a sponsor. Often it is the local government or a business, but many murals have been paid for with grants of patronage. For artists, their work gets a wide audience who otherwise might not set foot in an art gallery. A city benefits by the beauty of a work of art.
Murals can be a relatively effective tool of social emancipation or achieving a political goal. Murals have sometimes been created against the law, or have been commissioned by local bars and coffeeshops. Often, the visual effects are an enticement to attract public attention to social issues. State-sponsored public art expressions, particularly murals, are often used by totalitarian regimes as a tool of mass-control and propaganda. However, despite the propagandist character of that works, some of them still have an artistic value.
Murals can have a dramatic impact whether consciously or subconsciously on the attitudes of passers by, when they are added to areas where people live and work. It can also be argued that the presence of large, public murals can add aesthetic improvement to the daily lives of residents or that of employees at a corporate venue.
Other world-famous murals can be found in Mexico, New York, Philadelphia, Belfast, Derry, Los Angeles, Nicaragua, Cuba and in India. They have functioned as an important means of communication for members of socially, ethnically and racially divided communities in times of conflict. They also proved to be an effective tool in establishing a dialogue and hence solving the cleavage in the long run. The Indian state Kerala has exclusive murals. These Kerala mural painting are on walls of Hindu temples. They can be dated from 9th century AD.
The San Bartolo murals of the Maya civilization in Guatemala, are the oldest example of this art in Mesoamerica and are dated at 300 BC.
Many rural towns have begun using murals to create tourist attractions in order to boost economic income. Colquitt, Georgia is one such town. Colquitt was chosen to host the 2010 Global Mural Conference. The town has more than twelve murals completed, and will host the Conference along with Dothan, Alabama, and Blakely, Georgia. In the summer of 2010, Colquitt will begin work on their Icon Mural.

So these hips are used in all my minifig scale battlemechs, these are built for a natural movement as seen on the mechwarrior series games, allowing pitch and yaw as well as a natural hip movement when walking, the most complex of these, the one in the middle has 5 articulation points just for the torso, also the fingers and shieldings on every leg are articlated for maximum posing ability
Color code:
Red = Torso attachment point (Torso yaw, on the last one the yaw is part of the central hip module)
White = Structural joints
Lime green = Main hip module ( torso side to side roll)
Aquablue = Legs and hip connection (absent on the first one wich uses a direct lego to hip module)
Dark Green = Legs joint (Torso up and down pitch)
Orange = First leg segment
Light blue = Second leg segment
Purple = Foot
Lilac (light purple) = Fingers and armor paddings (Also articulated)
Feel free to download the file "Technique - Mech Hips Examples.lxf" for a in deep view of these and use them if you find them usefull
