Hi so I decided to finally start up my DSL showcase now I'm a bit used to it now. yay now you have to put up with me and my terrible bots

In all seriousness, I wanted to make a good impression by showing off an outstanding bot, so I decided to make one just for the occasion, so i decided to pick a robot from my gaming childhood. From Ratchet & Clank 2/ Going Commando/ Locked and Loaded... The B2 Brawler

“ Taste the adrenaline as contestants face our four-armed bandit, the B2 Brawler! Brawler! Brawler! No living creature is a match for this machine. Watch six tons of Carbonox alloy hunt for its prey. There is no consolation prize, because this bad boy is programmed to show no mercy! ”
― Ratchet and clank 2's Galactic Gladiators Host on the B2 Brawler.

Now for those who havent played this game then

Now I'm still fairly new to DSL so this may not be the prettiest thing in the world, but I'd love to hear you feedback on this, and I hope I can geet to building some more bots when I get time away from making videos

That brain case though! Never played R&C2, only 1, maybe I need to hunt down a copy.

R&C, Gotta replay that game. Either the first or second.
Forgot to say. Top-Notch quality!

Haha yeah it was a very fun game for me to play, I can remember the first time I actually beat B2, it just brought me so much joy as a kid, thanks for the kind words jdg & TGM, I didn't think the reaction would be as positive as it has been already considering I'm still new to DSL

good sh** my dude! glad youve finally started posting your stuff here. one thing i would consider doing is adding some protection for those exposed drive motors. maybe a little "joint" made out of extenders or something. Other than that, it looks great.

Thanks for the suggestion Badnik, really glad you like it, Ill see what I can do to make it look a little more stronger, I just kind of added wheels on at the last second as I wanted it to be something that moved and not just an aesthetic piece, but again thanks for the suggestion and I'll see what I can do for you

"I designed Beta for Battlebots 14 years ago, took me a long time, I've been gradually developing it and getting it working properly, so Beta has never got a chance to fight, its been sitting on my coffee table for 14 years, waiting for this moment" - John Reid 2016

this was the quote that inspired me to make this robot... Ladies and Gentleman I present to you: John Reid's Coffee Table!!!

Basically, its a mini Beta (i like to call it Alpha), with working weapon on a coffee table... covered in paint... because I need to texture and show my strrong point XD It also has wheels that can be taken off if they ruin the aesthetics of the bot.
Just something simple I made, defenitly not as extreme as B2 Brawler, but I hope that it has come out just as good. please do share your thoughts about it ^_^
