this kinda shows what bot building has come to. we can't even put some on our bots for decoration without getting bad comments on it. so we still have the chassis to give a paintjob, but be fair, in some cases the chassis isn't even visible and all that counts is serious building, no matter how a bot looks, as long as it is combat effective. well i don't like that all to much. i say let GK put decoration on his bots if he wants, it makes his bots original. something you don't see to much these days.

In total agreement with powerrave here. We need more cool looking bots instead of Flail spam spinners and flimsy extender work in most places.

Also why I made the huge VS in my showcase :P

To be fair, Badnik, that's kinda of a complete mess. =P

But it looks cool, right? :P

edit: 4300 posts! :D

Well...it would look worse if he had used a bar instead of the pick axe.

A LW Side Hammer I made a while back to disprove someone's (Stag's I think) that one cannot be made invertible and good.

Plastic 3, 4 ants.

I see. I may have a crack at this theory. Why are the drive wheels angled?

I made a LW invertilble side hammer too. Failed.

Failed?

Exposed front and weak armor (on my end)

So they touch the ground. It is still invertible.

you post to much cant you find the edit button? :P (should get SB's old user group of Heavy Poster.. that was back at 2000 posts :P)

the drive / BSG setup could be done lighter which may allow some kind of frontal protection

(also possible CCIV entry ?)

Le Crab? Anyways I like the look of that hammer.

I can't believe I forgot that. It's been going through my head and I didn't connect it to the statement.

@JB: XD

But that setup can only get 2 KG lighter.
