Another re-do I've had around quite some time now, more has been done then you would first think. I knew had to upgarde to the 50s once they were released. Cooper Works Decals give the model a finishing touch, needs to be viewed in person to see how cool they are, Real easy to apply as well. I came up with this style of AA ammo box, works well for me ; )
Bit of Info on the real life vehicle
M16 MGMC - M3 based Multiple Gun Motor Carriage equipped with the Maxson M45 Quadmount (more specifically the M45D) with 4 M2HB machine guns.
The rear compartment had all its internal fittings removed and the M45 mount was fitted. The mount had to be raised 6" / 152 mm to clear the sides. There was no rear door and the tops of the sides were hinged so that they could be lowered.
Traverse 60° per second. 400-500 rounds per minute. There was enough ammunition carried to allow the M16 to fire for eight minutes of sustained fire. Range of 7,200 yards.
The gunner would sit on a seat reclined at 45°. The sight was positioned so that the gunner could follow the sight so he wouldn't have to move. The control grips were on a handlebar that were located on a post between his knees. By rotating the handlebar would rotate the gun or raise and lower it.
Hope you guys like it and let me know what you think

Upon the closure of the former Norfolk Green business based in Kings Lynn, in April 2018, their batch of Coasthopper branded Optare Solo SRs and Enviro 200 MMCs were all moved to upgarde the Bedford fleet. These were to be seen in their full Coasthopper liveries until gradual repainting took place at Yorkshire’s Chesterfield depot. Here is 37437 arriving into Bedford Bus Station with a 73 service
So I thought I'd tackle the loose wedges on the front first. I successfully managed to make the upgarde to the right wedge with out taking it off, but for whatever reason it didn't take. As soon as I moved the table it broke again, leaving me wondering why it worked on the back wedges which are not as anchored, and not the fronts which were anchored all the way down to the front.
I figured it was because the center triangle was still sagging. The center triangle's outer skin is also two halves not connected internally which is why the dome and large guns fell off. So I went to replace a few parts at the front, which didn't go well at all. It seems that every time I add or change something 8 other things break, which is what inevitably happend to the left wedge. In my attempts to modify the front most section of the center triangle another cascade failure occured and the entire left wedge collapapsed. This is exactly what I wanted to avoid because instead of replacing a handfull of parts I now have to replace thousands!
It might not have happend if I had made the upgrades I made to the other side, but those upgrades were not enough to hold that side up so I didn't want to make any adjustments or purchases until I had a solution.
The upside to this is that with it off the internal strcutue will be easyer to modify. But that structure now needs a complete redesign as it can't hold the weight of the wedge. I also may have broken the entire ladder frame of the center triangle but I can't really tell. I really don't know how to fix this at the moment. Any sugestions would be welcome.
Delivered in 1980 and spent 25 years with Air India.
I flew in this 747 in February 1996 from Toronto to Heathrow... with a nice upgarde to First Class!

This is the last shot I ever made in JPEG. The camera reset itself to defaults after a firmware upgarde, and I forgot to set the file mode after that. This was the first picture I took on that day; as soon as I saw how quickly it was saved, I realized the error and reconfigured the camera; the next and all subseqent pictures in this set were done in raw format. Here's the same scene developed from the raw image. The difference in timestamps is only a couple minutes, so the light couldn't have changed much, nor did I change the photo parameters in the camera — both pictures were shot with the same exposure program and same angle of view. But looking at the JPEG version, it is hard to imagine a sunlit scene (which it was).
There's a huge difference between 10 and 8 bits per channel in C5050 (and it's even greater in most cameras, typically capturing 12 bits). The difference in this instance means realistic sky colors in one picture and no color in another.
I kept this image because I like its composition more. I just wish I shot it in raw.

Explanation of the picture:
Continuing not posting my own taken pictures because I don't have time to take out my camera nad plug it back into my computer.
I really like the way the background turned out in this photo.

So I just got back to UCLA, a lot earlier than I expected, and a lot unhappier than I expected. On the way back, I felt so shitty that I decided to stop by my favorite tea shop! Tapioca Express and get my comfort drink. honey green tea+white boba+large.
So like I was thinking about it, and like before, no matter how sad I was or no matter how bad I felt, a cup of green tea would always make me feel okay. all better.
but today, I really didn't feel all better. now don't get me wrong, i felt a lot better. but i needed something else. so now i'm here to get it.
I'm sitting like a hobo against Dykstra room 518 and waiting for a certain someone to get back from their home so I can just sit in the same room and study with them. Because it's gotten to that point, just sitting next to them will make me feel that much better.
anyways, while sitting like a hobo I realized I could hear straight through most of the nearby dormitory rooms. How odd/unnerving. anyways, some mexican guy, and his uncle? and cousin(girl)? just got into their room, and now they are like loudly arguing. and i couldn't help but eavesdrop.
So bascially, they were arguing about a whole bunch of things. but one of the big things was the economy, and the recession, and it was just so interesting to see how passionate the mexican guy was about people playing the market and causing the recession. he was so like angry towards them because he knew what it meant to his family and yup.
felt.. kind of empathetic iguess, i guess it kind of fueled my fire. when we're still young, i guess we still have the strength/the will to make a difference, and we're not ready to accept some things that we don't agree with.
on a more.. on-topic note Iguess:
I know I bailed on plans with klennox and eNakamura today, so I guess here is a little explanation of what happened, becuase i'm pretty sure you guys are at least wondering.
so first of all, i stayed up all night studying, and towards 3-4am, Christiana's... ex lover(?) emails her like, "i love you" over and over again, in his drunken blazre. and like apparently he's sitting there drunk with his new girlfriend, so she sees it and she like freaks out, and calls christiana, and like eats her alive for "stealing" her boyfriend. which she obviously isn't. but anyways, so i spent the whole night getting the story out of Christiana, then convincing her that she didn't steal me from anyone. and that I wanted to be with her. and a whole bunch of ofther things. So I had the shittiest ass night ever. in addition to that though,
My new Sony Vaio Z series, came and I had to open the back panel to insert my new hard drive and etc.
so i addition to findig out that replacing a hardrive on a laptop is about 100000x more difficult than a desktop, mostly because of "drivers" and how they are not released on the web because manufactorers frown on hard disk upgarde, I also couldn't get a SINGLE screw out.
so me being an idiot, stripped the screw, and so we started to take them to computer shops.
We took it to alice's computers in San Marino first. After a few minutes they wer elike oh, we can't do it. and so we brought it to a second one, and they KEPT trying to use a screwdriver. which
HELLO just strips it more.
so anyways. I then made my way to Home depot to get parts to do it myself.
needles to say this didn't work so well either. so basically now i ahve a laptop with one screw that can't get in. we're going to try to return the computer, but i have no idea how that'll go.
basically i won't have my new laptop, which i've been like looking forward to for forever, for like at LEAST another month.
if at all.
so that's why i didn't hang out with anyone today. i'm so ridiculously stressed because i have an essay due and a midterm on monday. I feel like i'm giong to die. fuck me.
The W club registration for 2010 has not started yet but there was a newsletter with some teasers for 2010.
These three Poppy dolls should be available in January- they are supposed to be a "teaser" for the next collection and they will have a "special distibution"- whatever that means.
- Blue chip Monogram doll (see otehr photo)
- There will no be an actual toy fair event this year- instead, there will be an online event. There will also be exclusive doll(s) that all W club members can order. While I am a little sad that there will be none, as this would be a chance for me, different from the convention that is so much more hassle and more expensive. Plus, it helps a lot to see the dolls in person. At the same time, I am happy that everyone can order the dolls. You know I am not at all into exclusives!
- There will be a limited "Re-edition" doll available for the W club lottery next year, too.
- There will be two upgarde dolls for the W club: One Avantguard and one FR doll.
Oh, and I will let everyone know when the registraton starts! ;)

The Patty Granville Arts Center had a large addition made adding much needed lobby space, bathrooms, additional ticket booths, additional backstage facilities, and the new Multi-Use space called the Atrium. The upgarde also re-surfaced the entire outside of the Arts Complex making the entire Arts Complex have a more modern and up-to-date finish along with these modern columnized porch shielding the Texas sun from the windows making the building more energy efficient.
A new 2009 Stock train on its way to Brixton on the Victoria Line at Green Park. These new trains feature louder digital voice announcements, wider doors, new seat moquettes and much more. They also feature ATO like the 1967 Stock trains they replace. These trains are all part of the Victoria Line upgarde which also features new signalling and track and is now complete.
The role out of these trains is now complete and the whole of the Victoria Line is now run by the 2009 Stock trains.

"Spurious quote marks". Sunday lunch (launched in a sauce boat perhaps?) every day; I'd have thought that by Wednesday you'd be dicing with death! Takeaway to enjoy at home; was thinking more in terms of at the bus stop.
Oh dear.
And then ... in its way the seriously odd-coupled brown sign makes for an astoundingly fine 2-for-1 offer. And, "Turn left at the Albert" in particular is sheer poetry!
And now! In Stereo!! With the encouragement of Janet's comment I have upgarded this post to "Cue for Song" status. Unbelievably, I hadn't made hadn't made the (double) Morrissey connection
Cue for song:- www.youtube.com/watch?v=d0LeL9BUPtA
But .. despite the reference in the lyrics I can't in all conscience submit to the "Seaside town they forgot to close down" group, because Llandudno is one of the few that have contiued to cling to life. Beisng posh helps, of course.
