A new technique for me: photo stacking. This picture consists of six pictures, each at a slightly different focus point to get the lake fly in focus from front to back. Taken with my good old Nikon in combination with extensions tubes, since I don't have a macro lens.
I found the (dead) lake fly near our bedroom window and placed it on a mirror for this picture.

I wanted to create a specific shape, and this one was quite troublesome to deal with for me. I'm not sure if there's an easier way, but this ended up working out perfectly.
Did you know while flying away with the freshly-caught prey, an 🐦Osprey will manipulate the 🐟 fish so that it is parallel to the 🐦bird’s body, and thus aerodynamic? This is the exact technique an ✈️ airplane employs to take off the ground…
Make sure to notice it the next time you take a ✈️ flight…
Don’t forget to share with your friends.

This is a way to attach leaves on probably a spruce tree. I haven't tried it out yet myself, but I guarantee it's pretty sturdy.

Got the exterior to the front entrance of the mansion near complete. So far so good. My client is happy so I am happy :D

I recently (i.e. last night) faced an onerous problem: in one of the panels of the Ugly Duckling, I had to fill a one plate thick gap that was not a whole number of studs in length. Up until recently, these brackets where the only way I know of to do that--the corner part is one plate by one plate. However, being giant brackets they are hard to use in small spaces. In my case that wouldn't have worked at all, because the entire thickness of the panel at that point was one stud + one plate. I found a solution with the newish triangle tiles. I was at first annoyed that these tiles have the corners clipped off, but then I realized that it's roughly half a plate that is clipped off. That means that in cases where just the edge is showing, we can chain these things together to fill a gap that is one plate thick by a fractional number of studs. The first frame shows an example, viewed from the side as intended. Note that there are four plates SNOTed in the middle, not the usual five plates that would give you a two stud gap. The second frame shows it from the top. The third frame shows how the length is one plate less than 8 studs. The fourth frame shows the actual panel from the Ugly Duckling where I applied this. I've exploited this in numerous other places. Moving them a plate farther apart creates a 1 plate x 1 plate gap. I used that here on the black pipes in the top right, creating a gap exactly the right size for a 4735 robot arm to pass through, which makes an attachment point for the pipes much less distracting than a bar clip.
Moving on up! Got the second story started :D
I see I am going to have to go back through the tower and give it come more texture to match the other walls.

I saw this egret fishing technique like a live show in display. It used the left or right foot to stir the water under almost like swirling and then pounce precisely to fetch the fish. It’s like a martial artist applies jabbing technique before delivering the powerful punch.
Here's how I built the wall in my last moc- it's pretty simple, basically just a bunch of jumper plates connected in a repeating pattern.
Sorry about the terrible picture :P
An alternative method can be used to create thinner ribs of only 1 plate thickness which can be located within the structure of the van in the same way. I didn't use this technique because the panels would have been too small and the van would have ended up too short as a consequence. The parts coloured red are PN:11211 and PN:30414.
Here is a close-up detail shot of the rain barrel and the corner of the 1860 log cabin at the Littleton Farm Museam showing some of the techniques used the pioneers expected to put into a home. They even had to save the runoff for kitchen water but this one might leak.
They knew they would have do survive the seasons in this log home so they built accordingly. They even This log home shows the marks of careful construction like the specially-cut end notches that allowed it to last 150 years. The settler brought a good skill set with him to the west. I did not spot a drain to collect rainwater from the roof for the barrel so maybe they just hauled water from a well and kept it handy by the door. Not a lot of running sink water in the day, Life was very deliberate for these pioneers!
Once past the museum building, we made a beeline for the 1860 section of the farm and were delighted by truly authentic early structures. I marveled at the structure of the log and mud structure of the chimney, wondering how it could hold up over the decades. Oscar the cat was on mouse patrol, earning his keep. Eddie was in a rush to get to Doudy before sunup, the bike track by 10:00 and the Littleton Farm Museum after that. The museum was a place that I never heard about before found it to be an excellent experience. We kept expecting good skies but only those shots aimed properly could take advantage of any opening in the clouds. The rest were in flat light. This was major work to dig out this angle. Lighting is everything and needed to pop up pictures. I admired the daisy sculpture outside but marveled at the farm exhibits.
This museum is free and the one place you must take the kiddies. They were concerned about Eddie's camera and didn't want us shooting indoor or commercial shots. They would only be so lucky if they had Eddie to do their shooting for them! Oh well rentless onward. This is a treasure trove of old agricultural exhibits and far better than others I've encountered. Plenty to keep the young occupied as we discovered them bouncing from exhibit to exhibit. This is outside, before we got in!
I waited and shot and waited for the skies to start clearing; they didn't. I know what you are thinking; enough skies already! Most kinds of skies are worth it. Today's barely worth it.
A look at how I assembled the roof of this pagoda. You could potentially strengthen it with another layer of rounded 1x2 plates, but that might just make fixing it more annoying.
I was playing around with the shell extensions, and came upon this. There's enough room to fit various Technic connectors through the gap.

ESA’s ultra-precise deep-space navigation technique – Delta-DOR – tells us where spacecraft are, accurate to within a few hundred metres, even at a distance of 100 000 000 km.
In order to navigate a spacecraft around our Solar System we have to know how far away it is, how fast it is travelling and in what direction. Each of these steps are explained in this new infographic, "How not to lose a spacecraft".

Here is a new set of LEGO ideas and techniques, made with LDD
I'm sure you'll find a use to this idea
I tried to make the explanation readable thanks to the colors as if we had a tutorial

Xylography or engraving is the etching technique in which wood is used as a template and allows the playback of the recorded image on paper or other suitable support. It is a very similar process with a stamp.

The new armor piece (left) fits nicely with many types of blades from the old sets.
The masks (right) can circle around the new 6 loader. I wanted to make a motorcycle but don't have enough masks.
I don't often post instructions or techniques but though I would just put this out here. Not that great at editing it all together but some might find it interesting. It's the cockpit area from my most recent starfighter - Toxic V1. I built it from memory in LDD, so hopefully its OK. Probably should have chosen a different angle/more colored details for some of the harder to figure out areas. Feel free to recommend improvements or change any part of this to suit your needs. 74 pieces as is.
I had a few of these lying around on my desk, and I realized they make a lovely stone floor texture when combined en masse. It could also work as a cobblestone street. I probably won't ever use it, since I tend to build space.

After viewing Shari's technique video last night I couldn'wait to try it out, and this is the result. I inked the Classic Fabric Design with Soft Pool shadow ink, and the friends definition with Latte chalk ink, kissed, and this is what happened! This is so neat, I will definately do more kissing in the future! LOL!

The fastest hunk of junk in the galaxy just joined my Midi-Scale ship collection! Here comes the Millennium Falcon from Episode IV – A New Hope.
Made of 2,178 pieces, measuring only 34cm and weighing almost 1kg, this compact yet dense Falcon was another unique challenge at this scale. After seeing some great-looking Figscale MOCs of this tricky ship, I couldn't resist making a Midi version.
With this design, I took a different approach than most other Falcons out there, and wanted it to look as sleek and gapless as possible. This resulted in a pretty elaborate and unique mix of paneling techniques that involved a lot of SNOT building.
One of my priorities was to faithfully reproduce the curved saucer shape on both sides of the ship, and not only on top. As a result, the build features all the details and shapes of the original 1977 studio model, from top to bottom.
The overall thickness of the ship was another concern. I wanted it to be as thin as the original, while being able to sandwich some tasty greebles and even the hyperdrive engine bay inside the saucer.
The Falcon has two display modes, "in-flight" with its canted stand, and "landed" with easy-to-install landing gear. It also includes a working ramp.
► Instructions for the Millennium Falcon are available at BrickVault!
This is my first decent double exposure. I make this for a contest on PHLearn.com, and I won!
(There was only permited dodge, burn, and crop) Tomorrow I hope I can edit some cliffs photographs :)
_____________________
Esta es mi primera doble exposición decente. La hice para un concurso en PHLearn.com, ¡y gané!
Sólo estaban permitidas las ediciones que se pudiesen hacer en cuarto oscuro (subexponer, sobreexponer, y recortar)
Mañana espero poder editar algunas fotos de los acantilados :)

Finished what I think are two of the most complicated sections in this design. The roof peak and the balcony had so many details on angled surfaces it took all my tricks to figure out how to fit it all in.

Rear view of my final CCC entry.
Technic bricks +brick with stud on two sides results in a good method of hinging the slopes for this round tower technique. I might have gone slightly insane building most of this wall in one day...
I began experimenting around with lanterns earlier, and Thought I'd share the results. The one in the middle right is pretty basic and common and the one on the right I saw somewhere else (hopefully they don't mind), but I decided to include them anyway. Hope you like them!
Here is my entry for the Rogues and Outlaws category of Brickscalibur.
An old warehouse repurposed by nefarious Wolfpack outlaws as their hideout. Perfect for storing loot and even better when they have to stay under the radar for a while after acquiring it.
It took approximately 2 months to design and build this funny building and I enjoyed every moment of it! There are no skipped corners regarding design and construction-wise here. Meaning it's a complete building and everything is connected to internal frames, angels parts via hinges, no illegal techniques, no flex tubes etc. Piece count is unknown but for sure it's ridiculous for such a small thing.
Model design is heavily inspired by an amazing model created by Tabletop World. You should definitely check them out and see all of the small wonders that the create.
