Thanks for the kind words, everyone
One of the better uses of polycarbonate.
How do you make the robots spin like that?  That seems too smooth to be multiple screenshots.
Took me ages to BFE that sheet into place, since by that time the bot was taking 60 seconds to load into the botlab. The image is just a video of the bot on a green backdrop in the botlab, taken into a video editor and chroma key'd. The video file is then exported to gfycat, who convert it to a gif that I can embed. I use a combination of movepixel, autohotkey and a simple custom python file to make the bot rotate smoothly and consistently.I never got round to making a tutorial on it I don't think but it's pretty simple. Figuring out how to do the rotation in the botlab was the hardest bit.

CW version of LeViathaN. 598ish kg.

I changed the colourscheme to differentiate it from the MW version, added a full floor to the bot, changed all the front panels from alu to steel and modded a white version of the DSL bar and replaced the black ones, and replaced the ugly blue control board with a nice red version.

A couple fun facts about the first version; I only bothered to open RA2 because I wanted to make something for FOTEPX's new BOTM. So thanks for doing that my dude. It's also the first IRL bot I've done where I make the core of the bot (drive and weapon system) first, then fit the extender chassis around that, rather than the other way around. I think this is a much better approach.

looks really solid. Hope to see it in action at some point. the only thing I wish it could be was a 4wd but there's no weight left for that

If Fortpex does that BOTM thing again Im voting for this bot. Its just perfect :thumbup. As for this CW version I think it is just as good and while I think the colour scheme is not as cool as the original its still really nice.

Indeed I am, and I think this has a very good shot at taking it.

No but really, that bot is the real star of the show here! My god, that's sexy.

Damn, that just looks so clean.  Really like that you re-skinned the bars to match the aesthetic of the bot.

those are some lovely lovely builds man, I MW is more impressive to me to get it all in the weight limit and look awesome. The CW looks sexier though

Wow. That is truly amazing stuff. Have you ever considered building a house robot? One that could keep other bots in line?

EPIC OWNAGE OF LEFTARDS BELOW!!!11
 
FB_IMG_1529516128512.jpg


If anyone cares, it's 398kg with an overkill motor and 2x NPCF
This a parody of the ridiculous youtube videos with Shapiro, Peterson etc with clickbait titles like the image above. Hopefully that came across, if not then this is just super cringey. Maybe I went too hard on the Israel theme.

I regret spending an hour modding components and messing with AI for a low quality sh**post bot. I have a couple more serious bots I've made this week but idk if I want to showcase them or not.
