I like it, it's simple but effective. I like the back as well, is it bfe'd?

Yeah, I halved the height on the back points.

Another BFE'd to hell bot. But for good reason. This is essentially a replica of my irl BW, Mr Snappy. Can't get the lifter on right but this'll do.

Not bad at all. It could fit in the Replica thread.

Thanks for the compliments all :)
Thy, I'll put Snappy on the exchange when I'm fully happy with it - the lifter not working as the real one does bugs me slightly. I might also rebuild so that I BFE the sides in rather than the front back to stop the eyes being pixellated.
And yeah toAst, it's a BFE thing. Essentially what I did was add 2 extra points on the baseplate, then on the top plate moved them both back 1 so that there was still a set over the bottom back points but the other points overhung the back (giving the bot a parallelogram shape) and then you have to find those overhanging back 2 points in the bot file and reduce their height by half. Click wrote a good tutorial for BFEing chassis height, except his tutorial moves all the points were you'd only want to change 2 in this situation - https://gametechmods.com/forums/index.php?topic=9216.0

I don't imagine it'll be of much use for general stuff, there's 2 massive wheel holes in the back :P

Anyway, I fixed it and made it look nicer imo

Reminds me of a bot from, like, Series 1 or 2 of RW.

Nah I was actually just playing around with BFE and realised I made a chassis that looked like Buzz from RW:AoD, decided to take it a step further with some kind of back arm (replacing a chainsaw from AoD)
