Hi,

I'm not sure exactly your use case, so I'm just going to describe in general
what I might do in a similar situation.

Say I have a list of keys for a picture model, and I want to render that
picture on my HTML page.  So, let's assume these are my models:

class FirstModel(db.Model)
  my_pics = ListProperty(db.Keys)

class MyPic(db.Model)
  picture = BlobProperty()

Assume I've have an instance of FirstModel, my_model, and I want to
construct links to images for my HTML template.  I'd do something like this:

for picture_key in my_model.my_pics:
  image_links.append('<img src="/img?key=%s"/>' % str(picture_key))

The I would have an Image request handler that was something along the lines
of:

class Image(webapp.RequestHandler):
  def get(self):
    img_key = self.request.get('key')
    img = MyPic.get(img_key)
    self.response.headers['Content-Type'] = 'image/jpg'
    self.response.out.write(img.picture)

Obviously this is not production ready code, but you get the idea...
