Quite possibly one of the fastest street machines in town, Monty’s ‘06 Mazdaspeed 6 “Atenzela” (a combination of “Atenza”, the Japanese name for the Mazda 6, and “Axela”, the Japanese name for the Mazda 3) has been heavily modified and tuned to perfection. Bedecked in earth green paint, “Zela” whizzes through the night and screams up and down the local race courses, speeding past Subaru STIs, Mitsubishi Lancer Evos, Ford Focuses, and many other hot compacts. It doesn’t look very fast (save for the carbon-fiber hood and rear spoiler), but it’s a whole different vehicle underneath.

*The original all-wheel-drive parts have been swapped out for Ford Focus RS bits, along with the torque-vectoring software (including the infamous “Drift Mode”).

*The sport suspension pieces have been replaced with race counterparts to improve handling (although Monty hasn’t gone all out handling on the tuning to prevent his spine from breaking on bumps).

*A carbon-fiber hood and spoiler have been added to reduce weight.

*The original 2.3-liter turbocharged inline-four has been swapped...for a slightly-more-modern 2.3-liter inline-four from the same Focus RS. Seriously, the Mazdaspeed 3/6′s four and the 2.3-liter Ford EcoBoost four are the SAME ENGINES with different names.

*The turbocharger’s been modified to give a bit more boost, while being supplanted with a top-mounted electronic supercharger to reduce turbo lag and improve fuel economy. A cold-air intake (red cone) feeds the supercharger.

*The internals have been beefed up to handle the added power, and the exhaust has been opened up enough to give some extra oomph. However, it has bypass valves that allow it to keep quiet while driving around town; Monty’s not one for “flatulence modulators”, turbo whistles, and other extreme exhaust mods.

*Overall, Monty’s old ‘6 has gone from a fairly-fast, 278-horsepower Lan-Evo competitor to a monstrous, 500-horsepower daily-driven sleeper.

So, I asked @cainsnocreaturefeature this question about what kind of vehicles the kids use/own: https://ryukogo.tumblr.com/post/187879435396/oh-cool-i-wasnt-expecting-such-a-quick-reply and this is what I’ve come up with so far.

(Kidd and Nugget were built earlier; only the bicycles are new.) On the left is Kidd and his blue-and-dark-red hybrid bicycle; on the right is Nugget and his red cyclocross bike. The dark red on Kidd’s bike isn’t rust; it’s just the color scheme that was applied to it. And even though Ryu said that Nugget’s bike was all red, I decided to apply a bit of orange to it to make it a bit more realistic.

CNCF LEGO Miniland Figures

After reading this Kindergarten AU askblog @cainsnocreaturefeature, I decided to make these Miniland versions of the characters for practice and as an educational experience, mostly aimed to improve my Miniland character building and trying out new building techniques.

First pic, left to right:

Kidd, Billy, Ron, Alice, Jerome, Madison, Lily, and Nugget

Second pic, left to right:

Cindy, Buggs, Carla, Monty, Ozzy, Penny, Ted, and Felix

Please note that I tried to make Ozzy’s shirt and Monty’s undershirt ice blue, but Bluerender apparently can’t render ice blue anymore.
