If you see this, post walker

These are some hardsuits from my Glasslands project. Each one is a machine that's been so heavily customized over its operational lifetime that it's become a walking testament to the community that supports it and its long line of drivers

No two hardsuits are identical

My variant for Storm: Earths Mightiest Mutant 2

This is very much stylistically in line with the Black Cat cover, hopefully I can turn this into a series of sorts.

the magnitude of the baldfaced lying is so monumental & easily refutable
they tackled him, snatched his HOLSTERED weapon, he was shot without provocation, then the ICE agent shot him again like 9 more times when he was already bleeding out on the ground

If you read the wiki on the kangaroo hunt I completely understand why it was controversial/people walked out
Fucking fantastic film through and through. Would love to get my hands on the 4K remaster one day

Wake in Fright (1971)

Wake in Fright (1971)

PRODUCERS' NOTE

The hunting scenes depicted in this film were taken during an actual kangaroo hunt by professional licensed hunters.

For this reason and because the survival of the Australian kangaroo is seriously threatened, these scenes were shown uncut after consultation with the leading animal welfare organisations in Australia and the United Kingdom.

A truly shocking, gorgeous, desolate nightmare. Australian legend. Highly recc.
Kangaroos WERE harmed in the making of this movie
Wild to think this was shot when the population was actually threatened, compared to the importance/controversy of culling numbers in present day for sustainable reasons
