It's been awhile since I posted an update on this guy to Flickr, so here it is so far. The sculpt is pretty much done, just tweaking some things on the helmet, then I have to add the cloth and wires, and maybe extended the jet pack rocket.

Remembrance Sunday is gone, but the insignia of remembering the war dead are still up. When I came to Britain in 1990, male soldiers only were remembered (and, usually, Brits only, not the millions of soldiers Africa and India had provided). Things have changed since then, and now, there are also silhouettes of female soldiers. For somebody like me, coming from "Europe", it is strange that in the UK the memory is clearly privileging the military. Modern war, however, is equally destructive in the civilian world.

First of all, thanks er body for the 100 follower mark, it means a lot to me and I plan to give back with a post at least every week👌. Second, this is my BF4 US Assault class figure. It's been done for a minute just didn't have the time to take a pic.👍
most important updates are the 2 searchlights and changes in the landscape
I hope you like it
and comments and favs are much appreciated! ;)
Well I guess I should post an update because I have been not really active recently. I am in my Senior year of High School and would like to finish the year strong and I just completed my last season of Varsity swimming and will go back to working part time so I probably will not have as much time for Lego unlike when I was younger. I have built a few little things just nothing I am proud of, I also got an Instagram account so I might post more wips and informal pic there. I also might branch out from WW2 and did modern and Star Wars.
Thanks

Hello peeps!
These aren't the pictures I usually post on Flickr, I know. I'm here to only bring a small update that I am still walking on the surface of this earth and suffering alongside in this unbearable summer heat. After a year of being inactive on Flickr due to RL projects, I can safely say I'm working on a few things for SL that soon will see the light of day so stay tuned! For now, few minute 3AM touch ups it is or my friends won't leave me be if I don't post these.
Not sure if it's worth posting befores but eh; May as well.

This post isn't about photography....obviously:-)). In fact, I didn't even take any of these shots. It's just to give a bit of an update as you have all been so supportive. This first photo is the reason I didn't get far when I took off. Got stuck at my brother's for 2 nights (he took the top photo) because of a blizzard!!! Turned out well as I got to spend New Year's eve with two of my favourite people and their friends.
I had no problems crossing the border as I had observed all the rules about fruit and meat. Apparently Canadian fruit and meat is forbidden!!! It hasn't killed me yet! The only thing I was questioned about was the mysterious thing in my freezer wrapped up. Was a snowball for Fred (Darby and me) which has since melted when I had problems with my fridge...sorry Fred.
I made it to Huntsville Alabama after spending 3 nights in Walmart parking lots. I'm officially white trash now!! I didn't see much of the states I drove through but do have some observations from the road. Ohio has more damn dead deer on the roadsides than I've ever seen, all in various states of decay. I guess Canadians scoop up that road kill real fast!! Cheap meals. Kidding...road crews do.
Kentucky and Tennessee have a lot of rolling hills and I drove through a lot of dense fog in Tennesee.
What the hell is with the weird names in Kentucky. I was worried they have some fetish for licking. I only stopped once for fuel just in case. There's a Salt Lick, a Blue Lick Springs, a Knob Lick and even a state park called Big Bone Lick. I kid you not. You couldn't make this up---check a map. A flickr friend also pointed out one I missed......Dick Lick Springs!!! Honest!!!
It was getting really old not having running water so I was thrilled to finally arrive in Huntsville Alabama and hook up to water etc. It wasn't exactly that easy as my rig had been winterized with anti-freeze so the lines wouldn't freeze so had to flush them first. I was quite proud of myself when I backed that sucker into my campsite first shot. The "good old boys" who were watching, burst out in applause and one told me I had "impressed this country boy". Almost everyone in the campsite had two names. I honestly met a Billy Bob, a Sarah Faye and a Tommy Roy. I thought about adding my middle name to mine while there:-)). I was really looking forward to staying put for a few days. I met up with my friend Wes (BamaWester) and did dinner and I got a great tour of the area. It rained practically every damn day I was here and my campsite was like a swamp!! On my second day there I was awakened EARLY with someone banging on the side of my motorhome telling me I had to evacuate the park QUICKLY!!! The Tennessee river had spilled it's banks and was flooding the campground. I was told I had 5 minutes to get out. 5 minutes isn't enough time to unhook from electricity, water etc., put everything away to get ready to move, hook up my jeep and get dressed. So I was unhooking in my pj's getting soaking wet (still raining) and running around trying to throw things wherever they would stay put. A nice guy took my jeep out to higher ground while I prepared the motorhome. I insisted I was getting dressed first. I was NOT going to drive out of there in wet pj's!! I was told not to slow down going through the water or I would block everyone else from escaping. No pressure!! Was a bit scary when water was coming in under my door while driving out. Anyway, got out and had to relocate to another campsite which was dryer anyway but it was a HUGE pain in the ass. My very first campsite, and I get evacuated!! I hope it isn't an omen of things to come. Mike laughed his ass off at me as he said he's been doing this for 3 years and never had to evacuate a campsite.
I told Wes this and I mean it. They call Canadians polite but we have nothing on people from this area. I've met two very different kinds of people here, the country folk and the highly educated sophisticated type but they are all extremely polite and helpful. Lots of Southern hospitality here:-)).
Mike arrived (mikejonesphoto) and spent a few days which was great. He was good enough to check out a few problems I've had with the motorhome and I enjoyed seeing him and his dogs. We had a great visit. Drank too much, laughed a lot and caught up. It was a lot of fun. We got together with Ann (Amabile) and Wes for shooting on Friday which luckily was the only nice day we've had. Thanks again Wes for a great day....I'm thankful there were other things on the menu at the restaurant besides raw oysters!! Always reminds me of snot!
That's the short version even if it isn't too short, more like a Chaybert story:-)). I'm leaving here tomorrow and heading for Savannah Georgia which I'm really looking forward to seeing....then on to Florida.

This week I went to check on the "parking lot cats"...I drove past the Rottweiller tethered to a zip line and stopped to take another pix of him.
Well, I got "caught" red handed by the owner who came running outside to see what I was doing.
I immediately told him how gorgeous his dog was and that I was a photographer just taking a quick snapshot.
We ended up having a long discussion. He said that this Rottie is five months old....and named Gus [ short for Gustapo]. He said Gus was tethered because he had a habit of crossing the road and hanging out with the cows. He reassured me that Gus goes for a long walk every morning and likes to be outside instead of in the house w/him. I said.....that it would be better if he was "fenced in". ....and that Gus should have the option of being outside or in the house w/ him instead of being tied up.
I tried to be "nice" and he asked my opinion about having Gus tethered as it seems other passer bys have taken notice. So I gave him my thoughts about it. Hopefully, he'll put up a fence for Gus.

Izzy, just 16 and 6ft 2inches tall, has just been offered a place in the British Rowing Academy. If she accepts, she will have to do her A-levels at Hartpury college. It's a big decision for her, but I am sure she will choose well - she has monster plans for the rest of her life, and this will make a difference....

Hey guys, I'm alive!
I'd had a big project in the works for a later date, and here's the first preview. It'll be debuting later this year.
Some details are temporary, still testing out a few ideas. I'm hoping to start a few smaller projects to fill the gap between posts.
I have been working an absolute ton lately so I'm sorry if the quality of pictures isn't great. I have multiple things planned for the future including doing something I'm calling "4 hour builds" where I make a small MOC in 4 hours or less and show you.

The story:
A tourist was taking pictures with her iPhone of this snow monkey in a natural hot spring, but she came way too close - the monkey grabbed the phone and played with it for quite a while . It even managed to make the built-in flash go off. Needless to say that the iPhone did not survive the underwater session that followed.
Thank you!
Marsel

Got some new brickforge stuff!
Aquaman has new vambraces and a little design tweak, Roy has vambraces and a new bow, Ollie has a new bow, Merlyn needs a quiver but new bow and braces, and this is my WIP Artemis, she's not done but she's getting there.
Hope everyone is doing well and hope that things are sailing along smoothly. Just wanted to give everyone an update as to what is happening. The surgery on the left is scheduled for tomorrow morning and I am hoping and praying that everything goes as smoothly as it did on the right eye. This should take care of all of the imbalance problems between the two eyes and I should be on my way to a different way of life in around 8 days. I’ll return as soon as I see what the I am left with. Wishing everyone a truly marvelous day. Peace.

On the corner of Friedrichstrasse in Wiesbaden.....
PETER: (shouts loudly)
Mummy Marian, Jan, Oleg, Fenre.....Wait!!!!! Stop!!!!!
I see something very bad!
ME:
Sweetheart ..what is it?
PETER:
Look... there is someone sitting on the ground and he has a piece of cardboard in front of him that says ‘I am hungry’
ME:
OMG! That one doesn't look good. What's your name dear?
......
My mother gave me the name Funky Ms....
ME:
Marian...my name is Mummy Marian. Why are you here and where do you live Funky and where are your parents?
FUNKY:
I live on the street ma'am. My parents couldn't take care of me anymore because there wasn't enough food. I beg for food on the streets.
ME:
Oh no....so you are a bum! This is a terrible story. We are going to put an end to your bum excistence! You're coming with us to Holland. You'll get warm clothes, food and lots of friends. But first of all you take a bath!
FUNKY:
That's very kind of you ma'am, but I can't accept.
JAN:
Oh yes....you can.
Will you take care of his bag Oleg. It has to be taken along.
Jan grabs Funky and puts him in his backpack and Oleg takes the bag......
