These are two of the "Rider" class of Servants (heroic spirits brought back to do battle in order to win the Holy Grail {for wish fulfillment for the winners]) from the Fate/Zero and Fate/Stay Night series. The "Heroic Spirits" try not to give away their names - except to their "masters" - mages who brought them into the battle for the Grail - as other servants or mages may be familiar with them (they can be from any period in history so someone from a different age may know of another servant's legendary feats) giving one an advantage on strengths and weaknesses (e.g., Lancelot would probably be familiar with the legend of Hercules but Hercules would know nothing about Lancelot).
I've seen a couple of the anime shows based on two of the plot paths; it's a novelized game so if you make a decision at certain points in the game, the end result is different which is pretty clever but confusing if you don't realize this can happen. And based on the first paragraph of this description, a quite complex storyline to follow.
I had to do a lot of corrections to Rider on the left; his beard's glue was giving out on his left cheek so I re-built it (copy/paste, clone brush, and smudge tool) along with the healing brush to blend in the beard and wig lines onto his face to make it looks more believable. It's not perfect but it's a helluva lot closer to being real-looking.
I also used Nik Software's Color Efex Pro - Pro Contrast / Tonal Contrast and Dfine filters on this image.
Perfect little budget 1/64 diecast of a then current Mercedes-Benz C-Class saloon. Realtoy certainly knew how to craft their licensed castings and somehow cram them full of intricate detailing front, back and sides and then finish them in glossy and well applied paint. Definitely a golden era when their products were in abundant supply in UK big name stores and supermarkets. This one dates from sometime in the 2000's though was bought recently from Ebay, seemingly the only place to find Realtoy these days!
Mint and boxed.
Converted from Class W5 in 1985.
This photograph was taken on April 1, 1990. For some reason Flickr keeps changing to March 31.
Finally, the business trip ended. I was extremely exhausted for a week. Without any kind of good rest in Madrid, I am now seating in a business class 12D begining my 12 hours journey flying back to Hong Kong with the home bird Cathay Pacific and of coz' with the home ladies FAs who served me nice champagne and tenderloin.

A shot of my 830 class models.
All are by Auscision except for 858 which is by Trainorama.
I have actually since sold the Trainorama unit.
These units are very hard to photograph well, as the Silverton locos roofs reflect light of course, and so then darkening the shot makes the yellows look too dark (which they are a tad in this one).
I'm going to try to take some timed exposure shots of the Silverton units to try and show the roof detail (although admittedly its the same as the other 830s really).

Class 306 unit no 037 is framed reasonably well by the overhead line equipment. It is at the rear of a Down GE line suburban service, probably for Gidea Park.
I think the train is approaching Chadwell Heath - but do correct me if I'm wrong. A withdrawn 306 unit languishes on the right.

Built by English Electric at their Vulcan Foundry in Newton-Le-Willows, Class 50 represents the last mixed traffic diesel type to be built for British Rail and, at the end of its career was one of only three classes of diesel capable of 100mph duties.
The Railscene programme was started in 1984, three years before the first ‘Hoover’ was withdrawn (it only required an F exam!).
Four and a half years later less than ten of the original fifty fifties remained in use.
This dvd includes thirty-two of the class in action, it is compiled from the Railscene archives and is a tribute to probably the last of the ‘great’ express diesel class.
Opener: A classic view the ‘Dutch fifty’, ‘Valient’ and plain blue ‘Thunderer’, as they cross the River Tamar on the Saltash bridge with Pathfinder Railtours ‘Cornish Centurian’.
Part One: Fifty Miscellany – Variety is the spice of life.
We start with railtours: ‘Courageous’ and ‘Victorious’ on the WCML.
The ‘Fellsman II’ at Long Meg, ‘Sir Edward Elgar’ on Windsor Gala Day and an unscheduled duty for ‘Archilles’ banking ‘Drysllywn Castle’ and ‘Hagley Hall’ up Dainton Bank complete these mid-80s views.
The former DCWA celebrities are seen at Penzance (Dutch ‘Valient’ again) and double-heading at Truro and Ocean sidings.
More double-heading follows with ‘Ark Royal’ and ‘Furious’ at Par on the last official loco-hauled train from Newquay.
‘St. Vincent’, ‘Furious’, ‘Glorious’ and ‘Howe’ are seen on passenger duties at Lostwithiel, Ledbury, Aldermaston and Old Oak Common, whilst crash victim ‘Invincible’ and the first to go, ‘Centurian’ are seen looking sad.
‘Exeter’ works a passenger turn near Stoke-on-Trent in 1988 and ‘Archilles’ a freight from Parkandillack.
The unique 50149 ‘Defiance’ is seen on ‘the Heathfield’ at Cutmadoc in addition to views on a Meldon quarry trip working.
Another celebrity, ‘Ramillies’, heads the HST ‘generator set’ at Severn Tunnel Junction in 1989 and ‘Victorious’ provides rare footage at Winfrith and Wool with the track recording train.
Large logo celebrity ‘Hood’ works ECS near Romsey and ‘Lion’ is diverted via the Southampton mainline: ‘Superb’ and ‘Temeraire’ are seen in action at Southampton and Portsmouth.
Finally ‘Dauntless’ climbs the Portsmouth Direct Line at Rowlands Castle in 1989.
Part Two: Waterloo to Exeter (‘The Last Stand’).
‘Fearless’, D400, ‘Ajax’, ‘Lion’, ‘Renown’, ‘Resolution’, ‘Glorious’, ‘Tiger’, ‘Vanguard’, ‘Defiance’, ‘Dauntless’, ‘Eagle’, ‘Repulse’, ‘Exeter’, ‘Illustrious’, ‘Thunderer’, ‘Victorious’, ‘Royal Oak’, ‘Sir Edward Elgar’, ‘Leviathan’, ‘Swiftsure’, ‘Dreadnought’ and ‘Temeraire’ in action on Table 125 duties.

The BR blue era. A Class 45 heads a matching rake of blue and white coaches south near Mexborough. Today, this view from Queen Street, would only show the two tracks nearest the camera and a lot of bushes.
