This better?

beter yes
i think if it were a short extender that just did its job without being an eyesore it would be better
i still think iron spike would be great

Thoughts?

Have made a chew 3 prototype, This week I'm gonna finalize the design

[cephalopod]

The teeth design is not IRL at all, they'd bend and/or snap.

Ok... a simple fix

[helloface]

Messy. Definitely clean up that frame.

[Natster-104]

Another thing to add to the list, Also what makes it messy?

Also, this Tooth design ok?

The frame looks very loose. It's quite a bit away from the wheels and chassis.
Also the extenders are wonky here:

For next time, try to use only DSL bars for larger frames and only flippermakers for shorter frames as they usually look better than extender frames.

[Naryar]

messy indeed, fix that in priority. otherwise it looks OK. Make it a good HS/rammer.

The multi extenders are little bit**** to match up, but I'll see what I can do

Will do

Go and clean your bot natster, its in a complete mess

[Natster-104]

Man, haven't played Ra2 in a week, time to fix that,

still need to fix up Axelon 2 but I have something more special,

My second attempt at a DSL-S Bot



Tit 5, don't know what else to do weapon wise with the weight

Insides:



Thoughts?

The weaponry makes me think IRL but the exposed motors make me think standard

If you're going for IRL, protect the motors more. If you're going for Standard, you need more weapons, preferably razor tips.

Just changed the picks to razor tips, where else can I put the weapons?

[Lemonism]

Add some extra extenders to the hammers so that you can get more razors on them. You probably don't need titanium extenders for the hammers either, since the hammers should be hitting the top of an opponents chassis (most hammers I see tend to use just polycarbonate). Many hammers have curved designs to help with this as well, so that's something to think about.
Chassis looks really airtight, so you did a good job there, although it is actually possible to mount the NPC fasts basically half out of the chassis, but still on the baseplate to save chassis space.
I'll leave further advice to more experienced players, DSL standard is not really my area (yet).

Ok I'll go fix that up

Anything else from anyone?

[Natster-104]

Took me 50 minutes to build



P3, flipper and I was inspired by the live designs AI to build something cool

well... My brains fried I don't think I have enough brain power to fix Beatdown, perhaps tommorow

Anyway... Thoughts?

This is going out from the terri-bad territory and into the ok section

[Badnik96]

That's really cool looking. What are its weapons?

[090901]

What are its weapons?

He said it was a flipper.

[Natster-104]

A flipper powered by a judge burst and the ant saws and ripping teeth are for cool looks/ a tiny bit more damage
And thanks!

Lol, just realized it was a heavyweight, wonder what I could do...

Also, Anyone else like it?
