From the comic series, Robocop vs. Terminator. Back view.
Robocop based on the Original Movie and Terminator is based on the T-800 Model.
James Cameron warned us about the “Rise of the Machines” with his epic "Terminator" series. More recently Stephen Hawking alarmed us by claiming that human society is only a few generations away from being overtaken by decision-making robots. My own llford Sportsman camera is now proof of this.
It seems that it will take pictures only when it is ready, as opposed to when I am ready. It opens its diaphragm blades sometimes, but not always, in a pattern I just cannot work out. The machine has taken control of picture taking. Frustrated with this, I decided that if it is going to act like a decision-making robot, it might as well look like one. So I gave it a “Terminator” makeover.
I stripped away its black leatherette, distressed the metal bodywork to give it a battle hardened look (note : back to brass in places), removed its setting dials to reveal its inner workings and, to finish off, gave it a “Terminator T-101 android" red eye.
Believe it or not the camera in this state is still functioning, apart from the shutter leaves. The optics are clear and the winding mechanism and focusing ring are in perfect working order.

NEYO CUSTOMS Terminator set prototype. This one is roughly painted, but the official ones will be painted with shiney Black Spraypaint, and very detailed chrome parts.
Thanks for the suggestion, The Brick Guy!
My little Flower Crab Spider is a killing machine, and she even has red eyes!! She catches at least one fly a day, and her colouration has become increasingly yellow with time spent on this flower.

Another one mainly for the railway enthusiasts. This is the closed railway yard at Springsure. The silos give away the main use of the branch and this station in its later years. Like many closed lines, they were euphemistically "mothballed", an easy way to close and walk away from a line under the pretence that they could be reopened quick enough because all the infrastructure was left. Given the tracks have been decimated, the buildings removed and the whole former railway yard now a grain/trucking depot, I don't see it reopening any time soon. The diamond crossing in the previous photo is on the extreme right of the shot.
Here's a quick history of the railway from Emerald (Nogoa) to Springsure.
Nogoa – Springsure, 65 kilometres (40 mi). This line opened in 1887 to provide access to a fertile valley. Although built to pioneer standards such as 10 tonne axle load, it has remained in service, with the first 43 km to Wurba Junction being upgraded in conjunction with the opening of a coal loading balloon loop serving the Minerva mine in 2006. The section beyond Wurba Junction was closed on 26 June 2013.
For much of its later existence, the line served the silos and grain transport but rationalisation of grain transport saw this and many other lines close or be truncated. A large new GrainCorp terminal is nearing completion on the outskirts of Emerald.

"When it comes down to it, it's just a simple numbers game. Us against the machines. If we destroy one of them, a brand new replacement will take it's place, straight off of Skynet's production line. If one of my guys goes down, how many YEARS will it take to replace that human fighter? Ten, thirteen years? We won't win this way. We have to be smarter than the machines. Or we die."

Here's side by side the first release of the police station terminator on the left next to the ultimate edition by neca.
So this new version I feel pretty much the opposite than I did about the tech noir version. I really like this ultimate edition more. The head is pretty much the same, except the new version added some gloss to the shades so it gets that shine which you can see. the jacket has great weathering which the first version didn't. his hands are actually painted now, the first version they were just all black. the only issue I have with the new version is the pants and boots again. I like the look of the pants and the weathering paint on the boots of the first version. but there is no articulation so I guess an even trade. But the guns are still better in the first release, the new version they are too rubbery. Anyway this figure is still well worth the trade up from the older version, especially with getting the alternate heads that were first released with 2 separate figures.
..and Stay Resident.
Well, not quite. As a veteran of a 1000 psychic wars with MS-DOS this is what "TSR" expands out to in my head. However here it stands for Tactical Strike Reconnaissance. The TSR2 would have been the fastest most advanced fighter of it's day had the programme not been cancelled due to internal squabbling between the RAF and the Navy, and a politically motivated decision to buy into the General Dynamics F-111 instead (a deal which later fell apart due to delays and spiraling costs).
I mean look at this thing - this was developed in the late 50's! Almost all evidence of the programme was systematically destroyed, and yet this one XR220, the only complete TSR2, survived. There is a second air-frame at Duxford (XR222) that was completed cosmetically later as a museum exhibit. This one is at Cosford, and is in an original, un-restored state.

Something a little different. Lots of tweaks done in photoshop. Original was green, I think grey suits it better.
