Saturday had the most successful build gathering to date. We started around 1:00 PM ran to about 5, where a small group went off to the local hobby shop, when we got back, a few folks needed to take off, but they were quickly replaced by other folks. The spray booth station actually had a line going with folks waiting to paint parts and such. There was a total of 10 of us building yesterday. Seems like these group builds are growing with each month… We may need to have folks bring extra folding tables and chairs. The group is a very good mix of experienced and new modelers, it is interesting to see the different processes and ideas thrown around. A few folks are more productive then if building alone. The build session lasted until about 2:30 AM. Good times had by all.More pictures of the group and what we were each working on below. (more…)

The guys I was diving with were having problems. One had mask problems which was leaking water, and another was just getting tired trying to follow me towards the reef. I got in a few pictures as this was the first time I got to dive this spot during the day. We got in right at high tide and there was a very strong surge in comparison to previous dives at this location. But I did manage to get a few decent pictures. THe first picture which is the picture above is my first snap of a Nudibranch which is a marine snail. The actual size of the animal was about 10 mm or so; very small, but damn cool to see. (more…)
