First build of 2019, and last build before I turn 24. It's basically a HW version of Nerve Agent (because a HW armed with nothing but two flamethrowers is totally gonna be competitive, right guys?) [ Quoting of attachment images from other messages is not allowed ] Hopefully my next build won't be another 4WD box-wedge :P
But seriously I think it could be a good spinner-killer if the front wedge is steel

I think the problem with this is that it looks rather blend when i look at the shape itself.Classic box with wedge on the front, maybe try something different like try to replicate tauron from battlebots!I bet thats the main problem for that bot, i hope i helped a bit! :3
Agree on the generic wedge comment, which is a shame with those nice extender details around the rear wheels. Your bots always have great extender accents like that. Maybe just a more unique front end?

Your bots always have great extender accents like that. Maybe just a more unique front end?Yeah, my extenderwork is still something I'm proud of, it's just the fronts of my robots that need work. I'll have a think about what I can do.Anyway, today I decided to breathe some new life into an old friend. [ Quoting of attachment images from other messages is not allowed ] I can't believe it's been almost two years since I built Jungle Fever. The bodywork hasn't changed much: the extenderwork is cleaner and better-optimised in a few places, it uses the new NPCs with the fixed APs, and I swapped the large Colsons for DSL wheels because why the hell did I give it large Colsons in the first place?! Massive waste of weight.I still need to update the skin, but I'm posting it here now to get feedback on the main attractions: its alternate weapons. A lot of tourneys now, like Orc's Wars, limit you to only one Moros Blade (plus they slightly clip through the Perm even when you use the longest belt). So I've built two alternate weapon configs - a disc and a DSL bar - but I'm not too sure about either of them. Thoughts?
I still like the Moros Blade the most, the disc looks a bit ugly. The normal bar looks good, but I don’t think it’ll be as damaging as the other 2 optionsNothing wrong with the skin, and I really love the way it looks. However, I think if you could make the name stand out a bit more, it would make it look a better
Skin's updated and the teeth now match the disc. Jungle Fever is finally ready for its comeback. [ Quoting of attachment images from other messages is not allowed ] I've had an idea for a rebuilt Octane so maybe that'll be next on the agenda.

I don't know what that is.
Another rebuild of an older bot: my undercutter, Bluebird. The previous versions never fought - unless you count Horror of Koror, which was basically Bluebird 4 - so hopefully this one gets some action. And hopefully it looks a bit less generic than some of my other recent builds, even if the colour scheme still feels a bit plain. [ Quoting of attachment images from other messages is not allowed ]
