What is that? Clowning Around? It looks indistinguishable from the original :P

The third version's in my sig, and its completely different :P But it does have a lot in common with the 4th version, if thats what you mean :P

Gave up on skinning, also...PREDICTABLE POKEMON GO!

Doesn't quite have the pzazz of skorupi, sadly. And its a pity that all of the flames come out of the shell. And that everytime I try to skin anything something crashes. XD Must be messing up the .gmf or something.

torkoals are evil

Naryar · « **Reply #667 on:** October 18, 2011, 12:30:56 PM »

So this is supposed to be a torkoal ? Hell if I didn't knew you were going to post a torkoal I wouldn't have recognized this as one...

I would make a chassis in the rough shape as Torkoal's shell and then do the paws and head with components. Really.

And make custom mini size flamethrowers so you can still spam flamers for Overheat and have a reasonable head shape. Or stack flamers with BFE/snapper loading (if you decide the head to be movable with a burst, that is).

martymidget · « **Reply #668 on:** October 18, 2011, 01:29:23 PM »

To be honest, torkoal was more of a half arsed attempt to do an extra pokemon, and to slightly annoy ty. Skorupi was the one I really spent time on xD

I really should remember to teach myself BFE...

you should send Skorupi before signups close.

Clowning Around 5.1 looks excellent. Is the skirt a good trapper?

martymidget · « **Reply #671 on:** November 02, 2011, 07:13:10 AM »

Its not bad, and its helpful in a wedge war in an open arena as bots can just launch themselves out on the skirt xD

Been toying with more gut ripper type ideas, this one partly inspired by my first showcased bot (Stock) and DSC's SW entry, and S_M's drill.

Meet the ideal gas equation (yay revising while building bots), pv=NkT. 6 ants, NPCF, plastic 3.

Things to be done-

Narrowing the chassis, even though this would make it less potent against flail SnS.
Align the drive, because it drives terribly atm :P

I'm also thinking about changing the BB's for something with higher piercing, but its surprising how quick it can maul bots just with those. The back trapper is handy for OOTA's, or just grinding the back of bots casually. Could also be trov glitched if required. Any other ideas?

is E-Tek better than Perm 132? If not, I would prefer to use them.

martymidget · « **Reply #673 on:** November 02, 2011, 07:17:17 AM »

The belt would mean I would have to move the motors back, meaning a possible loss of wedginess with more weight at the back...but who knows. Perms are an extra 10 or so kgs anyways, and E-teks seem to do the trick nicely.

Naryar · « **Reply #674 on:** November 02, 2011, 11:28:39 AM »

it's pV = nRT you ignorant :P

On topic, I think your weapon could be better. I don't like the extender, motor and weapon choice.

ty4er · « **Reply #675 on:** November 02, 2011, 11:35:19 AM »

i honestly don't think you need e-teks on this.

G.K. · « **Reply #676 on:** November 02, 2011, 11:35:26 AM »

Weapon doesn't strike me as long enough.

Motors look strange in that position, but I can understand your conundrum.

Pwnator · « **Reply #678 on:** November 03, 2011, 12:47:17 AM »

Have you tried rearranging the components so the drive is inline and the Perm 80s within the chassis gap?
