    Batad Rice Terraces - Philippines 2009

    https://www.reddit.com/r/Philippines/s/JP5cZI1CdI

    Batad is a village of fewer than 1500 people, situated among the Ifugao rice terraces. It is perhaps the best place to view this UNESCO World Heritage site. The landscape is truly stunning and the nearby waterfall offers a lush swimming point.

    RSS Capt. Rogers - The Sword of a true American Hero - Full Scale Prop

    https://www.reddit.com/r/cosplay/s/sHhrdP5GXE

    My full scale Lego swords are made to be used. While they won’t actually cut, if you are not careful, someone could get knocked out.

    The second RSS prototype built RSS Captain Rogers; Captain America themed. I would begin working on the this new project before finishing RSS Iron Saber.

    After creating a base look and feel, I then looked for old Captain America sets that I could integrate into what I had created. I picked 2017 set 76076 Captain America Jet Pursuit It was already hard to find in 2018, but it had some key elements that I wanted to include like the Cpt. Rogers name plate and the printed star pieces. 

    Here are a few of my superhero themed sword I call Royal Sword Ship (RSS)
