The first robot since the move, it's Terminator 2 (both versions).

Those look pretty awesome, Rob- particularly now that they've got the paint on. I'd maybe recommend a smaller axe head for the second version of Xterminator, but other than that, they're pretty much spot on.

Thank you, and pic updated above.

I do rather like the bent axe handle. Using the angle connector probably makes it as flimsy as the real thing too.

Probably Rob · « **Reply #4524 on:** March 29, 2013, 10:15:53 PM »

It's also about as useless as the real thing, too!

The Executioner S5. It uses Wham's custom crusher motor that goes about 90 degrees.

Especially with regards to the piston work and the paintjob, that looks fantastic, Sonny! My only concern is that it looks a little bit small, but other than that, it's truly excellent.

Personally I think it'd be closer if you used reskinned slim wheels (forgot what they're called) or the bicycle/motorcycle wheels and reskin those, but other than that it's spot-on

Looks like the original! But i think it needs some dirt/scratches.

Merrick · « **Reply #4529 on:** March 30, 2013, 05:29:31 PM »

I think slims or motorcycles would be too large for it.
The wheel choice seems right to me, it's just the back end of the chassis that seems a little small compared to them.

Yep, I tend to go for right height over right diameter when I can only have one.

Re-skin of my first one: Mace 2.

It really was ugly compared to the predecessor, right? 2 just looked naked without the black lines! It didn't look right!

Looks pretty good, Rob- the detail is nice, but a little low-resolution.

I've also gone back and sorted out an annoying problem with one of my otherwise best DSL replicas. Remember that improved Panic Attack-

As you could see the skirts were quite poorly recoloured in Paint, with bright yellow lines around the black stripes, for some reason. However, with the magic of Paint.NET-

The colours are all now uniform, making the skirts look quite a bit better than they originally did. Well, hopefully.

This took all day to make.

Schweet. I particularly like the detailing on the chassis, paintjob and the flipper- if you could utilise Wham's front-hinge burst motor for the flipper, then it'd be more or less there.

(Fun fact, actually- I was the one who uploaded that picture of it to the RW Wiki!)

Crushtacean. Made possible thanks to Wham's modified TDD motors, the claws work (mostly) like the real thing

And here's a pic of it practicing

Thanks to the release of DSL3 beta, I might make a BB 2.0 Ginsu replica.

Wow! Crushtacean looks very cleverly done, especially with regards to the claws and the domed effects of the chassis.

Badnik96 · « **Reply #4538 on:** April 04, 2013, 06:12:22 PM »

Very well done.

Wow! Excellent replica.
