A very nice site you’re constructing. The detail of information and quality is

I’m curious though, why do all of the active links on your fup page, link

I didn't even notice that they did that because I never clicked on the links.
Why draw more attention to it?

"Why draw more attention to it?" Presupposes something to hide. I didn't
think there was, did you? No, I continue to be my overly-nosey self, is all.
What a strange question, though.

Yes, questioning the links in such a “gotcha” tone on a public forum was indeed
strange.
Or at least a strange display of drama seeking.

A strange question sparked by a trivial observation.

That is a very good and important question.

| | randyf, the part is definitely made up of 3 separate parts (1 of the main chassis,
and 2 of the modified 2X2 plates.) Each of the 3 parts has a molded part number
that you can see on the underside.

What I meant to say was that the part comes as one complete unit in the sets
directly from LEGO and is counted as one part by LEGO. There is no need to assemble
it, and it is not meant to be disassembled. I was rushing through messages before,
so I didn't explain it well enough.
Cheers,
Randy

That makes sense. I did have a strong suspicion that the parts came pre-assembled
in sets, since that chassis is a juniorized part (for young kids), and the precise
force that would be required to put the 2X2 modified plates on the underside
looked like something that would take adult level effort.
Thanks,
David

With all due respect, it's none of your business.

Ouch! They are two good guys. That is the nicest you can be?

Thanks, John.
Russell may be a good guy, but what are you trying to do, ruin my hard-earned
reputation! I've been working on how many ignore lists I can get onto, I
was doing good 
I like picturing all those using the ignore feature, covering their ears and
chanting la la la la la

Wondering what type camera/filters/editing programs you're using?
Your closeup pictures come out amazingly detailed.

Hopefully not for long. But perhaps I can shed some insight as I have a background
as a photographer/videographer.
I can't say what camera, but for pictures like this a macro lens is required
to get close in shots with tiny objects like Lego. If Mark is using a DSLR of
some kind or comparable then shooting uncompressed photos will retain sharper
images.
I can't say what filters Mark used, but a polarizer filter can help greatly
with reducing reflective / semi-reflective surfaces like Lego.
And Mark is most likely using a light box of some sort or using white surfaces
of some kind to bounce the light for even lighting/softer shadowing.
Hopefully Mark will be back to elaborate but hopefully this information is helpful
in the meantime.

Very helpful, thank you for the explanation. I’m ashamed to say that I have all
the dslr equipment but have not been using it for a couple of years.
Thank you Quinton,
Stay safe

Keep making these wonderful cartoons as well.

I think a cartoon with an individual named Tomás de Torquemada would make a lot
of sense.
