Well I'm going through the store to see what can be recycled, re photographed, re packed and I came across my Theme Racer builds.
A standard was designed around Legohaulics' steering system which can be coloured accordingly and propped to suit the individual racer. Much fun...

"If John Walker had never done anything else, his work in creating hundreds if not thousands of new varieties of hibiscus would entitle him to the gratitude of the people of Hawaii." - John Walker obituary, 1928
The first half of the twentieth century marks the golden age for Hawai'i breeders like John Walker, who creates 2,500 new hybrids and sends cuttings from his personal collection around the world.
Pre-1950 Hawai'i hybrids, the theme of this section, are created by a large and diverse group of local breeders, from Matanai Kataka in Honolulu to Lucy Vrooman Cooper of Hau'ula's famed Cooper Ranch Inn.
Desired for their beauty and vigor, Hawaii hybrids are imported by botanical gardens and fellow breeders in Australia, Bermuda, Fiji, Panama, Sri Lanka, and the United States mainland.
John Walker's Hawaii legacy extends far beyond hibiscus hybrids. As the founder of Walker-Moody Construction Company in 1895, he builds many of O'ahu's most iconic
structures and public works, including Honolulu's original sidewalks, Honolulu Hale (City Hall), and the Kalãkaua Crypt at Mauna 'Ala, the Royal Mausoleum of Hawaii.
Born in Hiroshima, Matanai Kataoka is the first recorded Hawai'i breeder of non-Caucasian descent. Migrating from Japan in the 1890s, Kataoka works on a Kauai sugar plantation before moving to Honolulu and founding his own hibiscus and anthurium nursery.
I didn't like my A-frame's look and articulation very much so I made the smallest possible exosuit which could wield good articulation while having good proportions.
Thank you to everyone who pauses long enough to look at my photo. Any comments or Faves are very much appreciated.
The “line_up“ is a paperwork series I developed since 2010. The “liners” are made out of paper (Din A3/A4),
oil paint and graphite. The theme is the hermetical laws of polarity and movement. There is no ending and no beginning in any direction, just an endless movement. You have the possibility to arrange the papers like you want and that makes it an endless playground for my photo-work and the eyes of the viewers.

New Christmas Livery Virgin train No. 91128 (Claus 91) is seen heading past Spittal at Berwick-Upon-Tweed
Working the 1S10 King's Cross - Edinburgh Waverly service.
The new livery came about when Virgin ran a nationwide competition in which school children got the chance to design a Christmas theme livery Train.
Virgin trains had such a huge response and two winners were picked Madeleine Deakin aged 11. with her Christmas theme train called Claus 91 which runs on the East Coast Main Line .
The other is Pendolino Train which is called Penguilino and was designed by Amber Maxfield aged 9 and runs on the West Coast Main Line.
"Why IS a raven like a writing desk?" asked adolescent Alice.
The ashen, addled American author avoided answering.
Quoth the raven: "Anymore!"

Edaville's excursion train, with Monson #3 on point, approaches the junction named for the railroad's founder, Ellis D. Atwood. The track branch that goes camera left takes the train on the original loop around Atwood Reservoir, of which only a portion remains. The track heading camera right keeps the train on the current, 2-mile loop.
This image was captured at what is now called "Edaville Family Theme Park" in South Carver, MA, during the park's annual Christmas Festival of Lights.
