If you can skin this, I'll let you pick my next coardboard replica

[Resetti's Replicas]

Like the title says, I've got the body all assembled for my Hydra       replica, but I realize upon inspection that the skin is beyond what I   can do with my skills. So, I'm offering a trade; do this skin justice (More that what I can do which is drawing it in Paint)  and I'll let you pick my next replica.   

Anything   from Robot   Wars is fair game, even the ones they   made pullbacks out of.  I'll   let you pick any scale you want, although   curvy and domed shapes like Blendo or Destruct A Bubble will be  difficult, and will look like     <bleep> but if you want it I will  make it.

Here's what the original looked like:

The pattern is the same at the back and right sides

Here's the skin:

BTW The fork-thingies are going to be made from components so they aren't part of the chassis skin


Any takers would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks.

I might give it a try. Don't know if I'll succeed, but I'll try nonetheless. After all, it's the least I can do in return for all those requests of mine you accepted from me   :3

I'll give it a whirl

Which series?

Quiet you   :P

Quoted because I edited it when GF replied.

EDIT: Stop ninjaing me S_R.

[GoldenFox93]

Right, so the Series 6 version?

[Resetti's Replicas]

Yes, please.

[GoldenFox93]

OK then, I'll give it a try in the morning. Although to further help me, could you please send me an empty version of the chassis?

Right then...if it's alright, I might make my contemplation about the rep.

My first choice would be Mortis in its Battlebots armour (a picture can be seen on the RW wiki). Failing that, Chaos 2  :P

Sure thing, here you go,  In fact anyone who wants it can have it; an empty box-wedge isn't exactly a trade secret.

Out of curiousity GF, what program do you use for tasks like this?

Well, it's more to get certain things right.
 
And Sonny? I like to use my own special mixture of Paint, RA2's paintshop, TLC, and extreme violence.

[Preytor_4]

I'll probably be using Paint.net, MS paint, and something else that will strike me as useful.

I could make the skin. I have improved from my fail skills in MSPaint.

Why must you be some awesome at skinning ?

[JoeBlo]

Its my job (Literally)

[Resetti's Replicas]

Thanks so much you guys!
@GF, The thing about the BB version is that I'm not sure about the exact shapes of the special armour plates based on that one glare-y photo, and I know there are some at the back that I'm missing.  However, I can do the Series 4 version no problems at all.

Prey you can pick a cardboard replica too, let me know as soon as you decide

EDIT: You were nija'd, but I'll keep to my word for both of you. 


Joe, thanks so much for the skin!   Do you want any cardboard related compensation?

Also, I made a version with your signature on the bottom panel so that if Hydra gets flipped (its first match is against Tsunami so there's quite a possibility), everyone will see who made the skin.

OK then- the Series Four version would be fine, thanks  :3

I'm proud of myself actually, I finally figured out the colour scheme - a shiny ebony body with a copper-coloured bumper. (That's why I was hesitant to do Mortis before but now I'm all over it)
