uh, Vsauce :lol:

supposedly it is a piece on atomic theory containing only words of germanaic origin, with more than a few coinings from germanic roots or with german analogues thrown in.

huhmmm, to be honest it's more of a preservation of signature purity if anything...

i do wipe spam when i see it and give feedback to the other team members, but for now keeping it to a minimum until the summer when i have more time. :)

Room on the broom (children's book title). Speaking of brooms, quidditch looks like a fun sport.

I don't think I'd like to play Quidditch; it looks far too dangerous for me!

I would probably be too clumsy to play it myself, but I would love to watch it. I'd like to try it but I'm not skilled at real sports, so I doubt I'd do any better at the magical ones :lol:

Not on brooms, especially. I would be scared of falling.

Oh, is that what that was in your plasticine figure?
I think I saw it posted on WP not long ago.

yeah. this distraught doll here (her arm wire snapped again, see the tear?) is the "granddaughter" of the subject in my above painting.

Image

i also sculptured these just this week.

Image

i was aiming for the "fungal infestation" look in that left one.

it's not finished, i still need to add the "ears" which are a series of mirrorlike discs on the chest, in a plane.

i'm not sure what to use for those that aren't too heavy, and even less how i'm going to attach them.

small washers?
