leaf animals

Yesterday, I made close up photos of leaves. Later, I practised drawing animals that are featured in an app called Pony Trails. In GraphicConverter we merged the photos with the drawings, using operations like "invert", "lasso", "colour rotation" and "invert selection".  "Enjoy"!

ENIGMATIC SYSTEM


We created a picture of a fantasy solar system. We had the help of a LEGO drawing machine that I described in an earlier post. We used a stylus with 2 cylinders, one containing the tip of a marker, the other containing a magnet. Our stylus was dragged (round and round) by another magnet that was installed to the machine underneath the glass table. We applied water colour to the almost finished drawing. In graphicConverter we inverted the colours and added a sun, which I named ENLETELES.

H2 Commando Craft







Recently I designed this H2CC, with Commando Droids in mind. This craft is piloted by such a droid, tasked with deploying separatist equipment to an ocean planet (like Kamino).  The cockpit of the H2CC is special: no other ship has 3 cockpit windows.  What's more, they are spherical.
The craft is also special because of its wings… shaped like floats on a float plane.  Of course, if a ship like this touched down on Kamino it would be blasted plain jane out of the water!  Excuse me, that was my BX series remote control vehicle systems communication aaaaaah…
