What started out as a modification by Third-Dot Arms for the old M-4 Carbine, quickly transformed into a weapon of its own. This is the M-5A1 Assault Rifle, one of Third-Dot's top selling products. It was purpose built to be as cost effective as possible, without sacrificing any capability. Because of this, the M-5 lacks the large amount of electronics seen on most weapons today, making do with only a tiny timing chip to prevent jamming. That's important for the M5 as it uses a "reversed bolt" to allow for its small bullpup design. It's also built largely from Plastic Composite, which is cheaper then other materials on the market today. Despite these cutbacks, the M-5A1 is still a highly capable, and accurate rifle. It's bullpup design and lightweight body allows it to be maneuvered easily in close quarters, yet its long internal barrel allows it to engage targets accurately at long range. No wonder the Central Defense Contractors, the largest PMC in the US, field the M-5 as their main combat rifle.
This was a fun build. It's nice to be PMGing again. Expect more soon now that I've climbed out of this rut I was in.
P.S.: For anyone how would like to point out that "this would never work" because there's "no room for a bolt" please look up the TKB-022 AR and leave me alone... Thank you :D
P.S.P.S. I've been having issues with PMG not wanting to save JPG images... I had to printscreen and cut out this pick. If anyone is having the same issue or knows how to fix it, let me know.
I'm satisfied with the Portal Gun--it's finished.
I'm fairly happy with Chell, but I need to touch up the paint in a few places, and I definitely need to give her a protective matte coating when I'm done.
Northern Plains Railroad heads west from fetching interchange traffic from the CPKC in Thief River Falls, crossing the Snake River near Radium, Minnesota. My view is seen from the Snake River impoundment where the river itself underwent some modifications and engineering to mitigate flooding. This bridge crosses the original course of the river, which is divided and partially diverted into the impoundment while its primary course is a linear ditch. The Snake River eventually wiggles its way west to Warren and Alvarado before taking a dramatic swing north to join with the Red River of the North west of Stephen.
A follower and friend edited the pictures for me.

Nope, I'm not tearing down my Volvo NL12 unit. I did cut the chassis some time ago but just to give it another look. The chassis was still raised with Technic beam and I want to get rid of the Technic look of it. The axles will be renewed as well and will be much better detailed. No, this model is still a stayer. Have no reason to say goodbye to it yet!

Now that you've seen my modification process set. I am uploading 50 or so photos, almost all unprocessed, straight out of the camera chip. I am using a square format for all of the photos.
Shooting with a vintage camera: part 1
With my modified vintage camera, I feel that at times I can create a feeling of presque-vu with my photographs. I don't feel that my images with the vintage cameras are mainly about composition, or graphic design or drama or the high contrast b&w that I enjoy. The scene that I am trying to capture is familiar, nostalgic, yet unrecognizable to me, and therefore a new reality is created for me. This could also be a feeling of jamais-vu. Sometimes, I feel both conditions may be true. Since the only idyllic Asian "town" for me is the one basically in my mind, a fusion of places I've been drawn to, I'm content to follow my camera as it botanizes what is before my eyes. With my regular workhorse Ricoh cameras, I can attain this feeling in some images after quite a bit of post-processing, but with these modified cameras, I can get it unprocessed, and in color. That is one damn good reason to go out with the thing I've put together and just shoot and forget everything else.
I thank all those who have helped me both physically and spiritually.

Some eye´s modification for a better look. ;D
You can follow the process in my blog (only spanish at the moment but I´ll update in english soon):
A 12M air suspension Asiad from Vasai neatly modified by divisional workshop. It was on its way to Swargate
Last night I had some airbrushing to do for another doll, so I thought it would be quite easy to work on Marcus as well.
His face is still shiny. The paint isn't wet anymore, but it has a gloss of its own.
He needs a face-up next.
And I am going to work on his teeth and see if I can smoothen them some more.
A few more pictures of the rebuilt CB-95 - with the proper camera settings this time.
This is the most altered section of the Rockfish, with a fully closed command bridge, larger lower crew compartment and rebuilt upper deck and gun turret.

So, here's another modification of the Green Grocer (#10185).
Actually the plan was to dismantle the Green Grocer to make some space for other MOCs, but instead I ended up rebuilding it for the second time.
Now I really like it, I guess.
Added another floor, rebuilt the roof and stairs again and added some more furnishings.

Leica M6J, Voigtlander Old Nokton 50mm F/1.5 (Prominent to LTM conversion)
The Prominent Mount->Leica Screw Mount (LTM) is a modification by using Leica Summarit lens barrel. But the modification is fixing lens permanently, so lens cannot be removed/attached freely.
Special highlights are the screw on type 49 S UV filter and hood, both original from Voigtlander in the old time. More common found are the clip on type filter and hood.
