you're getting good at this whole bfe thing. i'd move the wedgelets back so the green extender is fully hidden by the chassis. also give it a cool skin!

I will work on giving Acidity the skin soon. For now I have moved on from learning BFE to extenderbots with moving weapons. First attempt isn't clean, but power wise behind the weapon and drive is solid. Definitely need to improve with extenderbots but I gotta start somewhere.

While the typhoon teeth actually looks cool because it's colored, I honestly don't like the support. It looks inadequate from the picture. Also, I'm curious, but considering how the parts feel a bit exposed, and the supports are inadequate, did you use like steel for the mostly extender (the component, not extenderbot) construct?

I like this man! Yes it's similar to Hop's F3 but both are cool in their own ways. When we getting a challenge match between the two? ;)

Not bad, but it doesn't look stable.

Damn this build got a lot of replies.

To answer Billy's question, yeah all of the chassis is steel so it doesn't get split in half within a minute. This was my first extenderbots with a moving weapon so saving weight for better supports and making it cleaner is something I hope comes to me naturally in time

Been practising my extenderbots further and with Hop talking to me about BFE on the discord call I have made SRIII. 6 Mag for the bar, NPC Fasts for drive. Really happy how clean it has turned out.

Another extenderbot has been made. I entered Flare into OW3 and a lot of people said how it lacked being clean, the wheelguards where a bit messy and the teeth set up was horrible.

So this new extenderbot has wheelguards that don't look like an add-on and the teeth have been BFE'd into the wedge to give it a Tornado style wedge.

Not a big fan of this, more of an experiment in making an extenderbot with armour panels. Also I watched the Series 6 episode with Vader in it earlier so...yeah. Very top heavy, gyro-prone design with no srimech. At least the disc has a cool pattern.

So...I tried something different earlier. This robot is basically created from landed on different criteria rolled from a dice. Got given a 4WD wedge shaped robot which had to have a vertical saw and a horizontal spinner as well as be teal and dark green. Here is the result. It's a bit too slow to be competitive but it was a fun challenge.

I was doodling and came up with a weird shaped chassis with a flipper extension at the front and eyes on the top, so I made it in RA2 and I'm rather happy how it turned out.

Made a standard 4WD bot with a wedge and saw at the front. Nothing special about it other than a custom skin which in itself isn't unique either.

Wanted to make a Donald Thump replica, but halfway through I threw a curveball and give it my own decal.

Went to make a crusher last night...which then turned into an overhead saw...which then turned into an axe. I like the chassis and the fact it actually works effectively.

I should take a picture of it with the axe shaft like 75% of the way down and then the AOD vibes will fully kick on.
