Bottom left reminds me of a bot from Battlebots... All I remember about it is that it had a skeletal frame painted yellow with dark tinted lexan panels and it fought Nightmare at one point.

were you drunk when building the top right and bottom left ones ? Because it seems so.

Was it Junkyard something?

Junkyard Offspring?

Yes, although I don't understand how the bot in the bottom left reminds Andy of it.

It's the general shape and weaponry type that kind of clues me in. However, I feel it's more of a marriage between Crab Meat and Junkyard Offspring if anything.

Yeah, the shape and the weaponry, but there's no armor like that on Junkyard Offspring. and that's mostly what you see on Thyrus' bot.

The one on the right is pretty nutzy but I love it

not so sure about the pole spikes on the left one, but it looks awesome

the right one is pretty cool too, i love that inner frame on the wedge

MassimoV · « **Reply #1350 on:** August 28, 2013, 07:26:02 PM »

Reminds me of Guzunderbot.

I really like the one on the right.

Nice robot, shame about the wedge.

Insane.

helloface · « **Reply #1355 on:** August 31, 2013, 01:13:46 PM »

Is that a skin?
That must be the best RA2 bot I've ever seen.

MassimoV · « **Reply #1356 on:** August 31, 2013, 01:21:25 PM »

No. It's a photoshop trick. Still looks like a good bot.

JoeBlo · « **Reply #1357 on:** September 02, 2013, 09:27:16 AM »

Love the look of it, Thy

Ive tried a few times in the past to get transparent skins to work, stumbled over another idea the other day too

only trouble is, beyond the botlab, it will just be a few particular components floating in a transparent blob since there is no baseplate/ texture as such during battles

Thyrus · « **Reply #1358 on:** September 02, 2013, 09:45:29 AM »

Thanks. so the only way to make it good looking would be using components as baseplate then?
do you have some kind of picture or video of it? I`m curious how it looks

JoeBlo · « **Reply #1359 on:** September 02, 2013, 09:58:33 AM »

I only have the idea on how to do it.. my last attempt crashed the game when you loaded a match lol

but basically in a match the chassis just becomes a shaped component so there is no textures or anything on the inside, only your skin and since most baseplate components arnt visible, id imagine the results wouldnt be like your robot above :P
