Testing, testing.
One, two, three.

Here's me testing out an overhead shot for future timelapse lego build videos. I'll try to film my test builders™️ who will be helping me test my designs and instructions to make sure they're ready for sale.

The camera is held in place with a monopod under a piece of paper pinned down with cans of lead. Excuse the blurriness, I forgot to focus the lense. 😅

Thanks to my CFS, I can only work for a few minutes at a time before I have to take a break or risk getting worse. Here I am updating some instructions and fixing a mistake I found in the model.

An aside, I got to use my tilt-shift adapter for my camera in order to frame this correctly, and that makes me unreasonably happy.

LEGO enthusiasts celebrate interesting architecture by building replicas of Canada’s national museums in the National Capital Region or Ottawa-Gatineau.

The region has an active and longstanding LEGO community but this seems to be the beginning of a trend.

For the Museum of History in Gatineau, Indigenous Architect Douglas Cardinal shared his own plans with the LEGO builder.

Another pair of builders created a 3D video to inform their construction of a model of the Victorian-era Museum of Nature (which had a rumoured haunted 4th floor).

This weeks #Lego #FossilFriday is #Homo #neanderthalensis aka #Neanderthal

In 1829, Philippe-Charles Schmerling, found a partial skull in the Grottes d'Engis, Belgium. He thought it was a "poorly developed" human

In 1856, schoolteacher Johann Carl Fuhlrott recognised bones from Kleine Feldhofer Grotte in Neander Valley as distinct from humans. They were given to anthropologist Hermann Schaaffhausen to study

In 1863, "Neanderthal Man" was proposed as a new species. This was formalised in 1864
