Originally, I was going to stick with the ASM2 torso and legs, but it didn't feel like it fit with muh theme.
What next? Hob Goblin? Alistair Smythe? I'm kind of at a loss, or maybe I should move on to DC characters?

"je suis encore surpris par la musique qui sort de mes mains"
Ce qui renvoie à la question n°21 : quel est le groupe dont vous auriez aimé faire partie ?
Can.
Irmin Schmidt, Holger Czuckay, Michael Karoli, ... c'est vrai que mon nom accolé aux leurs, ça aurait un peu fait tache sur les affiches, mais je sens que j'étais fait pour le Krautrock.

Because a Leica M6 is both A.) much more than I can afford, and B.) a massive fixation of mine, I decided to shop around for an affordable alternative. I happened to find this little fella sitting by his lonesome on eBay.
It's a Yashica Electro 35 GS. And it cost me $6. And my identity. But more on that later.
Shipping included.
Simply put, I love it. It fits like a glove in the hand, is built like a tank (slight overstatement) and makes an endearing "thump" sound every time you push the film advance doohickey. I ran an expired roll of Kodak Gold through her/him/it and and was even more pleased to see that it had no light leaks or major flaws.
Not so pleasing is how somebody hacked into PayPal, nabbed by card number and completely drained my checking account shortly after said purchase. Which I believe makes it a "hat trick" of identity thieving. Not as entertaining.
The very nice people at my banking establishment (which was not bailed out by the federal government) took care of it all and saved the day.
Thanks, publicly traded banking establishment.
Thanks, Yashica Electro.
And the chest hair? That's for you, Burt Reynolds.

Dammit, Max, turn around! The fight's behind you!
Alright I'm not even gonna lie, I saw Ja 3ni do this, and it struck me as genius (also if you haven't been through Ja 3ni's stream do it, there's some sweet stuff in there) but I did add a few of my own twists to it, naturally.
I think I changed up a few parts of the SinSix since last you all saw them as well but it's hot and I don't wanna go back and look.
That's it for now, cheers, gents!
The black version of the GS model. Looks much better in black, a thorough cleaning brought this one to mint condition. Unfortunately, the electric circuit is beyond repair, so it will have to be used at the default 1/500 speed, controlling exposure by changing aperture according to the "sunny 16" rule. It's a pity, as the viewfinder is exceptionally clean and the RF patch very contrasty.
