Crazy Coup 88 can still use some work, but Mastiff looks great!

that's true.
first i need to make those rectangular plates as trapezes.
second, proper diamond metal skin.

started texturing Crazy Coupe 88, also i made the trapezoids parts.
but there's a problem.
it seems that since the original piece had a square texturing, now the texture acts strange.

there's a way to solve that?

started making Crazy Coupe 88.
for now i'm still using rectangular armor plates (also BFE for motor placing as you can see) and there's still proper texturing to do.

it was Resetti Replicas to suggest it to me, and yeah, it was very useful! ;). also at first i was going to test it with Shapeshifter, but i wasn't sure to do it, so i decided to make Crazy Coupe 88 which seemed more simple.
turned out it was more complex! :facepalm:
 
anyway (if we exclude the trapezoids piece texturing problem).





feel free to suggest what i can change.

I would try and use a flatmotor for the weapons instead of the piglets, they are flatter so shoudln't be as noticable and they have more power but they aren't overpowered

Also, just to add, you can access it by cheatbot2 if you don't know Cinghial. cheatbot2 will give you a lot of hidden components, and can be accessed by typing cheatbot2 (it's case sensitive) in your bot's name

that's interesting, i tried to check and there are some pretty interesting components, but for now i'll try to do avoid to use cheat parts.

is flatmotor part of cheat components? because i can't find any component called flatmotor in normal DSL

also, does anyone knows where i can find Darkrat components pack? i need a component from that pack for the next replica (a scoop for Shapeshifter) and it doesn't seem available in the downloads. or does it have another name?

It will be nice if you had reference pictures for obscure bots. Good recreates.
I shouldn't have come here

yeah i know. sadly you can't import those in RA2. so you have to improvise or move from game to image browser.
that's why i got Crazy Coupe 88 wrong, i didn't checked image references often.
also here's the original bots
https://robotwars.fandom.com/wiki/Flirty_Skirty
https://robotwars.fandom.com/wiki/Spectre

next one i was going to do was Shapeshifter, but after seeing a lot of interesting bots in this category i'm kind of undecided
https://robotwars.fandom.com/wiki/Category:Robots_which_lost_their_only_battle

this one could be interesting

and here it is, Rot Box!


sincerely, the realistic texture doesn't fit in my opinion. should i go for an MSPaint Style just like the previous ones?

Can't you just post the pictures themselves? Rather than post links? It's more convenient that way.

Also, good Rot Box.

ah, ok. yeah, it should be more convenient.
also, thanks for the compliment, but it's still not finished, first it lacks those scales, second the texturing could be done better.

and done! i replaced the previous mace which was made from an extender and some spikes with a proper mace ball, loses a bit in terms of replica lookaliking and power, but earns in terms of resistance. i know that in DSL there's a more proper mace, but it was less powerful
at the end i decided to leave spikes+extenders combo, less resistant but more powerful, and more lookalike, i prefered it more.

Made Shredder. Happy with how I BFE'd the red discs into the blue and especially how I BFE'd the chassis shape.

(Image removed from quote.)

Oh, also I made Apollo but haven't skinned it yet.

(Image removed from quote.)

And same situation with Firestorm, not skinned and the flipper glitches through the floor so will replace that at some point. Edit: changed the flipper to an armour panel.

(Image removed from quote.)
They're pretty damn cool, I'd love to see you create more such as
classic Robot Wars Competitors:
Chaos 2
Hypno-Disc
Storm 2
Thermidor 2
Dominator 2
Comengetorix
Ming 3
Spawn Again
King B Powerworks
Thor
Terrorhurtz
R.O.C.S.
Pussycat
Hellbent
Behemoth
Dantomkia
Panic Attack
Diotoir
Kan-Opener

Battlebots:
Valkyrie
Lockjaw
End Game
Bite Force
Ultraviolent
Razorback
Stinger
Son Of Whyachi
Poison Arrow
Death Roll

King Of Bots:
Vulcan
Saber 2
Switch
Whirlwind
Two BBQ

They will look awesome if you decide to create them.
Robot Wars Reboot:
Concussion
Vulture
Androne 4000
Apocalypse

For some reason I only just saw this, but this is certainly a checklist I can get on with

Damn dude, you're showing some PROMISE!

You remind me of myself when I first came to this forum: Building replicas left and right.

well thanks! :)
what can i say, at first when i discovered this game i made some pretty crappy stuff, but i got hooked to it pretty fast, i even made a personal bot, but for now i have more interest for replicas.
there are some pretty interesting bots to replicate , even simple ones which don't have been done yet. for example Shapeshifter (the 1st version)
seems pretty simple, but probably less interesting than his 2nd version counterpart
