In the Shadows

Finally I got around to make a day-and-night-video showing all of the effects of my V4 blaster.

Please don't be too hard on me, it's the first time I used a full frame camera and I'm still finding my way. I also had to operate camera, fog machine, lights and prop by myself 😁

I think I'm getting there though, keeping it focused is certainly one main issue...

PS, the buzzing sound towards the end is the fog machine ;-)

Borderlands inspired Blaster V4 - Big Blue Finally I managed to get this thing on video.Tried with some better camera, but had to operate all on my own.This is my own design, there are some WIP videos...

I've still got it I guess ;-)
Too much of an Aurora forecast today for me to ignore, and no clouds on the horizon for a change...
One could see some beams with the naked eye. And one needed no torch with a Half-Moon straight overhead, planes coming and going, a ferry slowly passing (and annoying us photographers), and the odd satellites passing through the sky.
This was close to Moa Point on Wellington's South Coast, from about 8:30-9:30.
And yeah, It's been fun to get a camera out again ;-)

Day off...
Both my "workshops" active today...
The "Werner Cave", basically my living room/dining room/office/studio/fine-paint-shop/design space. The shelf with the blaster guns holds mostly current projects.
Aaaand, there is the workshop on "Jakku" (aka my backyard), for sanding, all the rougher work and paintjobs too big for airbrushes.
Finally the weather starts to allow some work in the latter - for now.
Though still weak-ish, I still have to block out direct sunlight, already too much of a glare to do delicate work and fine sanding/polishing stuff.
I got most of the relevant tools and workpieces downstairs now and I better get started now 😁
