- CRIMSON ONE -


801.5kg

x4 Magmotors (Drive Motor)
x1 Magsnapper (Weapon Motor)
x2 WP836E Batteries

So, this is the base of Drillroid shamelessly reused with a flipper in place of the over the top drill! It's a shame it's a tad overweight in it's current form... remind me to swap a steel panel for titanium at some point.

I feel guilty for semi-spamming GTM recently, I have a busy few weeks ahead so it'll slow down I promise!

- CONTAGION 1.1 -

Contagion SHW.png

1198.7kg

Modified Contagion into a SHW for Orc's SHW side event, polycarb armour panelling and a much bigger bite than previous. Still a bit of a glass cannon and there's no self righter! Also using this as an opportunity to test the image attachments because I'm not sure if it's actually working for me or not... here's hoping!

The poly on top looks kinda awkward. But other than that very nice.

Dude that's hella cool. Also, don't have a problem with any of the poly. My one gripe is that the spinners aren't also supported from underneath

- SWEDE SORROW -
P.I.S.S.S V2.png


797.1 Weight
x2 Magmotors (Drive)
x1 E-Tek (Motor)
x2 WP836E Batteries

Despite it's lacklustre efforts in International Wars thus far I figured I'd showcase Swede Sorrow 2. The original Shell Spinner version's weapon was too heavy to spin fast enough to be considered a threat in a fight so I took the weight out of the Shell and into armouring up the centre.

- SNAKE BYTE -

799.2 Weight
x2 NPC-T64 (Drive)
x1 Beta Motor (Geared)
x2 WP836E Batteries

NPC motors are pretty common for drive so thought I'd give it a go, this time with a non-spinner. Started out with a snake-style motif but quickly devolved into a semi-thor looking robot in green.

- PREDAPLANT -
Predaplant 5.png


799.0kg Weight
x2 NPC-T64 (Drive)
x1 Beta Motor (Geared)
x2 WP836E Batteries

I've built a lot of really weird looking things over the past few months of being on GTM... this is up there amongst the oddest. I built a venus fly trap robot. The first attempt was around 1500kg so I trimmed it down a little.

I apologise for the bot dump/double post.

Nobody cares about the double post, holy sh** look at that thing. Snake byte's mad extender arm is cool and all but Predaplant is unique.

Kinda want to send you Aphid and Mantis for it to snack on.  :dumb)

I'm not sure how to feel about this. The main kinda chassis part just looks so fragile and out of scale. :/

Haha, unique is always a good word to hear! Lol I somehow think Mantis in particular wouldn't let itself get eaten ;)

Yeah it's disappointing for sure, the original version was framed a lot wider (basically a rebranding of Mega Tento) but it was waaaay too overweight. I did my best to scale it down but because the trap itself takes up a lot of the weight, there isn't enough left over to make a proper frame.

Ohhhhhhh my god that is so absurd, I love it. The HW version doesn't bother me /too/ much, although the SHW is obviously better.

Really like the arm on that hammer bot a couple posts up, too.

teehee traps

I think you would just be better off skinning the disc red instead of adding a layer of red extenders. That should at least free up the weight to make it look beefier.

Don't even need to skin a disc red. There's red discs already included in the new version of DSC's pack

**** yeah that's amazing, looks much heavier and with a more robust chassis.
