A Httyd-themed Lego diorama featuring the Scauldron, a water-dragon that spits out boiling liquid.
A group of dragon trappers have caught an infant Scauldron, who cunningly decide to use it as bait to lure out it's mother. It worked, though not without having with drastic consequences towards for both the trappers and the enraged mother Scauldron.

Before anyone says it, yes, I'm a sad sadistic person for making such a traumatizing scene.
I wanted to make dragon trappers (like those seen from Httyd 2) in action, and got carried away and threw in a baby dragon at the last minute...
Anyway, I'll add more pics of the dragon and the infant later.

What looks like an excellent log bridge gets you stranded in willow at the tip of a "peninsula." The better ford is 20 meters downstream.
The Thorofare Region gets its name from fur trappers who used it as a relatively easy route through the northern Rockies. The creek is named for them.
Vessel VOS TRAPPER (IMO: 9391921, MMSI: 636013386) is a standby safety vessel built in 2008 and currently sailing under the flag of Liberia. VOS TRAPPER has 48m length overall and beam of 11m. Her gross tonnage is 851 tons.
Trapper Peak, Montana, was named by my great, great, great uncle, Granville Lee Shook in 1876, who was a surveyor for the Anaconda Mining Company.
Here, he gave a whole impression of a Russian trapper, looking for his pray or was it his way?
He had us rolling with laughter, he is just so witty, the accent spot on, some Flemish words 'Russianised'...
The lighting again was an interesting challenge, because of the hand, ah well I'm sure you'll let me know if I've pulled it off!
From the series: Ex-and impressions.
Hope you are enjoying this?
Many more to come, but for now see the whole set so far for the context and full story.
Thanx, M, (*_*)

The Trapper (Evan Macmillan) as he appears in Dead by Daylight. This one was made quicker than the others and it shows a bit, but I really like the mask

Built in 1914 at no. 911 Wellington Street East.
"This is a Prairie-style single-story residence, noticeably located at the south-west corner of Wellington and Woodward in the city’s east-central area. It encompasses part of Lot 15, Plan 568 and Lot 29, Plan 930. GIS coordinates: 705,711.336 5,154,111.585 Meters
This handsome, distinctive, well maintained home is the best example of a Prairie-style residence to be found in Sault Ste. Marie. It is an elegant Craftsman style bungalow with a variety of gently pitched roof slopes and a small hipped dormer. The eaves are deep and bracketed. The columns are plain with square abacuses and no base. The inclusion of classical modillions in a residence is rare in Sault Ste. Marie and to Prairie-style homes. A variety of rustic building materials have been utilized: stucco, wood, brick and stone. The window groupings consist of both casement and sash with inner muntin bars. Those windows on the front have been replaced with modern aluminum windows but the windows around the sunroom on the east side and those on the partial second floor are original. Many of the original storm windows are stored in the garage. Craftsmanship in the building is excellent yet simple and functional. Even the interior fireplace sports hand-carved brackets of similar design to those supporting the overhanging exterior eaves. With the exception of the kitchen and bathroom, the main floor rooms are still finished with the original oak trim and floors. An old photo of the house indicates that cedar shingles once adorned the roof.
This residence was constructed, in its present form, in 1914 for Richard H. Carney who was District manager for Canada Life Assurance Co. It was the Carney family who was responsible for construction of the Carney Block on Queen St. It thus reflects the affluence of an upper middle class business family which was profiting from the Clergue industrial expansion of the day. A 1914 date and initials of the stone mason builder may be found in the basement wall mortar between the sandstone pieces. It is likely this sandstone was quarried from the locks as was typical for the day. This house was purchased in 1939 by the MacIntosh family who owned it until 2004.
The key exterior features that embody the heritage value of 911 Wellington St. E. include:
- Variety of gently pitched roof slopes provide horizontal emphasis reflecting the Prairiestyle bungalow
- Clerestory lighting that provides light to a half story loft
- A hipped dormer and deep bracketed eaves
- Columns with abacuses and no base but adorned with modillions
- Rustic building materials including stucco, wood, brick and stone
- Original casement windows with sash and inner muntin bars on the sunroom (east side)
and on the half story loft
- Home and property have been well maintained in traditional style with little change to
the exterior
- An interior with oak trim, baseboards and flooring unchanged save for the kitchen and
bathroom
- A beautiful fireplace with brackets supporting the mantle matching those under the
eaves on the exterior
- The best example of a classical Prairie-style residence in Sault Ste. Marie distinctively
located in a prominent east-central location
- A residence which reflects the affluence of a prominent Sault business family built
during the heyday of the Clergue industrial empire" - info from the Sault Ste. Marie Municipal Heritage Committee.
"Sault Ste. Marie (/ˈsuː seɪnt məˈriː/ SOO-seint-ma-REE) is a city on the St. Marys River in Ontario, Canada, close to the Canada–US border. It is the seat of the Algoma District and the third largest city in Northern Ontario, after Sudbury and Thunder Bay.
The Ojibwe, the indigenous Anishinaabe inhabitants of the area, call this area Baawitigong, meaning "place of the rapids." They used this as a regional meeting place during whitefish season in the St. Mary's Rapids. (The anglicized form of this name, Bawating, is used in institutional and geographic names in the area.)
To the south, across the river, is the United States and the Michigan city of the same name. These two communities were one city until a new treaty after the War of 1812 established the border between Canada and the United States in this area at the St. Mary's River. In the 21st century, the two cities are joined by the International Bridge, which connects Interstate 75 on the Michigan side, and Huron Street (and former Ontario Secondary Highway 550B) on the Ontario side. Shipping traffic in the Great Lakes system bypasses the Saint Mary's Rapids via the American Soo Locks, the world's busiest canal in terms of tonnage that passes through it, while smaller recreational and tour boats use the Canadian Sault Ste. Marie Canal.
French colonists referred to the rapids on the river as Les Saults de Ste. Marie and the village name was derived from that. The rapids and cascades of the St. Mary's River descend more than 6 m (20 ft) from the level of Lake Superior to the level of the lower lakes. Hundreds of years ago, this slowed shipping traffic, requiring an overland portage of boats and cargo from one lake to the other. The entire name translates to "Saint Mary's Rapids" or "Saint Mary's Falls". The word sault is pronounced [so] in French, and /suː/ in the English pronunciation of the city name. Residents of the city are called Saultites.
Sault Ste. Marie is bordered to the east by the Rankin and Garden River First Nation reserves, and to the west by Prince Township. To the north, the city is bordered by an unincorporated portion of Algoma District, which includes the local services boards of Aweres, Batchawana Bay, Goulais and District, Peace Tree and Searchmont. The city's census agglomeration, including the townships of Laird, Prince and Macdonald, Meredith and Aberdeen Additional and the First Nations reserves of Garden River and Rankin, had a total population of 79,800 in 2011.
Native American settlements, mostly of Ojibwe-speaking peoples, existed here for more than 500 years. In the late 17th century, French Jesuit missionaries established a mission at the First Nations village. This was followed by development of a fur trading post and larger settlement, as traders, trappers and Native Americans were attracted to the community. It was considered one community and part of Canada until after the War of 1812 and settlement of the border between Canada and the US at the Ste. Mary's River. At that time, the US prohibited British traders from any longer operating in its territory, and the areas separated by the river began to develop as two communities, both named Sault Ste. Marie." - info from Wikipedia.

Rare to get this close to the statues in the fountain (only in winter, as they boarded up les bassins de la fontaine). Walking around Place d'Armes in the early night, during the colder months, is always a treat. Raphaël-Lambert Closse seems so out of his element but still intent of getting his catch.
Réflection d'un homme en bronze : "J'espère qu'il ne rateront pas la Place d'Armes comme ils ont raté la Place Jacques Cartier...!" il se dit en fixant les architectes paysagers au loin.

• Im ausgehenden 19. sowie 20. Jahrhundert, haben hier vielfach Trapper überwintert. Diese Tradition wurde in Mushamna bis in die jüngere Vergangenheit fortgeführt, dort hatte der Norweger Kjell Reidar Hovelsrud in den späten 1980er Jahren eine sehr schöne, solide Hütte gebaut. Diese ging später in den Besitz des Sysselmannen über. Dieser hat die Hütte noch einige Jahre lang an Leute vergeben, die ein Jahr als Trapper in der Arktis leben wollten.
• At the end of the 19th and 20th centuries, many trappers wintered here. This tradition was continued in Mushamna until the recent past, there the Norwegian Kjell Reidar Hovelsrud had built in the late 1980s, a very beautiful, solid hut. This later passed into the possession of Sysselmannen. For a few more years, he gave the hut to people who wanted to live as trappers in the Arctic for a year.

Early morning around 4am. Just me and the mosquitoes, despite my bottle of OFF spray. They persisted.
