Submission Rules

  • Include some context about the image in the title (such as the name of the machine, the model, year, etc).
  • Include the resolution in [brackets] in the title.
  • Only submit static images.
    • Videos, collections, interactive images/websites, and articles are not allowed.
    • Do not submit a shortened link using a URL shortener like tinyurl.
  • Make sure your image is hosted by an approved host.
    • Original source is allowed and preferred over the approved hosts. If your submission is not on the list of approved hosts, but it is an original source, please use the tag [OS] so your submission is not removed in error. If your image is rehosted from another approved host it will be removed.
    • If you took the photo yourself, you can signify this by using the tag [OC] (original content) and after 24 hours you will be given special flair. If you don't receive flair after a few days feel free to message the mods.
  • Please submit images of automobiles without any visible internal machinery to /r/CarPorn instead of this subreddit. Due to popular demand, such images will be removed.
  • If you have any questions check out the FAQ.

I thought this was from my /r/imaginarytechnology subscription.. That isn't very imaginary now is it.

[–]shullmaster3000[S] 17 points18 points ago

Nope, but that subreddit is awesome! Thanks

[–]tornadosniper 7 points8 points ago

There's a WHAT subreddit!? Brb, subscribing.

[–]xpingux 4 points5 points ago

OH.

MY.

GLOB.

[–]Cecill 10 points11 points ago

Too bad it is a sculpture. :(

[–]shullmaster3000[S] 1 point2 points ago

Not true

[–]Cecill 1 point2 points ago

I recall reading an article about a group of Chinese artists who created this.

[–]Cecill 2 points3 points ago

Here

Has more pics :)

"life-size [...] 4.5 x 3.2 x 2.5mm"

Somehow... I think that might be an error.

the life of an ant

[–]Cecill 0 points1 point ago

Well the grammar in most of it is pretty sketchy. Maybe poorly translated from Chinese?

[–]tr77 4 points5 points ago

This isn't a machine at all, it's just a sculpture.

[–]hisnamewaschaz 2 points3 points ago

dont wanna get run over by that

[–]weelluuuu 1 point2 points ago

I hope it has good body..er mud flaps

[–]dexer 2 points3 points ago

Looks awesome, but it's not a machine.

[–]locklin 0 points1 point ago

First thought was awesome that would look mowing down a Zombie hoard.

I've been reading too much Zombie fiction.

[–]skroggitz 0 points1 point ago

Have you been hoarding those zombies again? Set them free!

[–]locklin 1 point2 points ago

Fuck! Oh well, lesson learned.

I'll leave it so others can learn from my mistake, and laugh at me.

[–]Ilidur 2 points3 points ago

If it's art, it's good art! But the construction opens it up to easy attacks from rockets and mines. The shielding isn't thick enough to stop AP bullets or something from a sniper. 1/10 for battle ready.

[–]shullmaster3000[S] 2 points3 points ago

Yes, BUT, It will make sure my neighbours dog stops pooping on my fucking lawn!

[–]auraslip -2 points-1 points ago

One RPG, or even a round from a .50cal anti-material rifle, and it'd be done for.

Unless it's made from some future tech metal...

[–]Popxorcist 1 point2 points ago

If someone told a 10 y.o. me I could do something like this still as an adult my life would be so much different.

[–]mattockk 1 point2 points ago

What is this? Besides the obvious answer "it's a tank".

[–]runcowardrun 4 points5 points ago

It's a replica of Megatron's alt mode from the second Transformers movie, made completely out of scrap metal.

[–]LaoKidcR 0 points1 point ago

No, it comes in fucking awesome!

Greetings, and thanks for your interest in the SFW Porn Network.

Unfortunately, your submission has been removed for the following reasons:

  • We require some context in the title, such as what it is, what it does, where it's located, etc.
  • It appears to be a piece of sculpture, rather than an actual machine.

You might try submitting it to /r/geekporn, as it looks like it would be perfectly on-topic over there.
