sure.

Also it needs a better skin

Longer counterweight gives you more leverage so it doesn't need to be as heavy. Since your counterweight needs to be really short, you need to compensate by making it super heavy. But if it's heavy enough it will work.

Perhaps the neutron star piece ?

I really want to make Granny's Revenge for the lulz.

@ Sonny's recent rep.

I could be wrong... but isn't there a way to initiate reflective properties in a skin? I think you have to modify the properties of armor types and then apply them to the bot.

Hydra's finally done. Thanks to Joeblo for the skin and Preytor for the flipper arm's skin:

Excellent rep Sonny, how'd you get the flipper working.

You mean how did I get the skin on? I found an online program that converts images to TGA's

Oh, okay

Awesome! You still could reskinn the small beater. does the sharktooth deal damage when mounted this way round?

The Brute. Artwork drawn freehand in Paint using only the picture below as a guide, while working on a canvas magnified 24x. The floor is blue because the blotlab went Minecraft on me all of a sudden (If anyone's really interested, say so and I'll post the full screencap in Tech Support)

The only way to make servos lift is with counterweight. You'd have to make a really small custom component that weighs like 200 kgs and put that on the other end of the lifting prongs.

This is actually untrue, mounting a FS style object allows for lifting, but that's kinda irrelevant.

Revised Run Away - most notably I replaced the lawnmower blades with mor accurate representations of Run Away's blades. They have to be mounted a little high to not scrape the ground.

GroudonRobotWars · « **Reply #3173 on:** July 12, 2011, 07:13:00 PM »

That looks sweet.

NFX · « **Reply #3174 on:** July 12, 2011, 07:24:53 PM »

Would smaller beater bars help with the motors not being as high?

GoldenFox93 · « **Reply #3175 on:** July 12, 2011, 08:37:20 PM »

Brute and Hydra are definitely two of the best I've seen from you in a while, Sonny

I get the feeling Runaway might have been the inspiration for EMERGENCY.

Normally I don't do replicas that everyone and their dog has done, but I decided to go for it since no Terrorhurtz replica so far has been made with a proper double-headed axe. Here's Terrorhurtz:

This was a part I was particularly proud of myself for, you probably can't see it in the other photo but I rigged up a small beater bar on a servo piston so that it looked and functioned like Terrorhurtz' ripcord going back and forth with the axe swing.

That is awesomely amazing!!
