Remote working *will* be the future

There are quite a few like these, but this one is the epitome.

Pushing the available figurines and seating space to the limits results in this.

It has been determined that in the future public transport will be crowded.


There was a flurry of ideas like this at one point, which seems to have died down. There were ships and speeders of various sizes with largely one or two passengers/ pilots. This one is an extreme example.

Something of a departure

As time passes, and the master plan unfolds, I think we'll see some themes emerge. I may need to start catering for that with tags based on date/obessession, or some convolution thereof.

In anticipation of that, here is something that I came across and actually had me scratching my head for a bit.
I'd obviously gone to some trouble to capture this one in its glory: note the  kitchen paper "studio backdrop" (classy!) and a pretty decent focus for a macro shot.
All very "un-me".
Plus, I just could not place this thing.




Then the sun came out.

It's a Dalek. All the distinctive features are there.

The "bumps" - very important. The eye stalk, the "plunger" (yes, everyone calls it that) and the gun.

It's one of the more minimalist works, which seem to grab the Creator's fancy and get thrown together on a whim quite quickly.
