So you only have 4 bots??

Natef · « **Reply #321 on:** May 29, 2012, 03:07:13 PM »

Those are my best 4.

Can we get another angle? In that one it's hard to see where the blade is cutting.

Could you center the MOE blade so it isn't asymmetrical?

Natef · « **Reply #326 on:** June 03, 2012, 08:34:27 PM »

I probably could.

at least you seem to be out of that slump that you were in, but do the poly sheets serve any purpose ? and you might want to get axle support for the weapon, like on skidmark

^the top one^
because im pretty sure youre going for a skidmark ~~klone~~ like bot anyway

I added the skirts because it wouldn't be balanced without them.

Sorry for kloning

I see no cloning...

You are really bad at taking cool pictures of your bots. While yes a top down is nice to see the insides, I can barely tell what else the bot is.

The best angles are a little above ground level and about 20-45 degrees off the front of the bot. Preferably so we can see both the front and the sides and get an idea of what the bot looks like. It's also pretty cool when you pose bots in an arena like I do. Just take a little more time on the presentation of the bots and your showcase will get more positive comments. Trust me.

Can I see some examples?

Jonzu95 · « **Reply #332 on:** June 19, 2012, 06:12:57 AM »

look at the Robot Wars Series 8 splashes...

Naryar · « **Reply #333 on:** June 19, 2012, 08:28:04 AM »

It's hardly a clone, most IRL MW drums look quite a lot like each other anyways.

I hope I don't get banned for this

yep its true hes looking at a dsl robot to get his hard
i mean come on, if anything he'd be looking at a good ole stock robot

but yeah just give it a circular chassis so it looks more real/sexy and it should be fine
...its irl right ?

Natef · « **Reply #336 on:** June 20, 2012, 10:20:42 PM »

Yes, I believe so.

Gauche Suede · « **Reply #337 on:** June 20, 2012, 10:22:57 PM »

you still have weight, make the srimech J-shaped(like MegaBytes) so that it'll look more IRL.

Natef · « **Reply #338 on:** June 21, 2012, 04:59:06 PM »

My attempt at an HS.

Clickbeetle · « **Reply #339 on:** June 24, 2012, 12:44:19 AM »

Mechavore disc is perfect but the extenders need work. It will look MUCH better if you make the chassis wider and put extenders coming directly off the corners, instead of that wonky flipper segment setup you have there. You certainly have weight for a wider chassis.

Ideal setup is four extenders, a lower and an upper set.
