A bot like that really doesn't need extenders everywhere to make it look great. Sometimes, less is more - you may end up making something that looks like a totally realistic real life bot, which is much more impressive than crazy extenders in my opinion at least.
(and before you freak out, yes your bots are good, just take the opinions you think could be valid and try them out in future - we're not criticizing you :P)

I know that Craig. It's just that it was something just to go completely bonkers with you know? I did state when I posted Raven was that I'm not a serious builder. But that doesn't mean I WON'T take advice, every little helps (other supermarket slogans are available).

Spend a little, live a lot?

Anyway, I still like it.

Maths much???

You can guess what number I multiplied by two to get the name of this vertical spinner

This is definitely one of your better builds. Good work. It could use a little more support on the disc though.

Nice spinner and if my math isn't too faily the number is 259 (nice reference to the robot wars competitor)

Haha, thanks. A while ago me and Lemonism were talking about if Robot Wars competitors made 'evo' versions of their bots sort of like Behemoth. So here's what I imagine 259 would look like (and be named, also because 259 2, 259 Mk2 or 259 Evo aren't really good names).

What is it with these dark things above your wedges ? Are these components, and if that is the case why are they blocking the feeder wedges ?

Otherwise it's neat but I can't help but feel more discs doesn't make it better. You could just ditch them and keep 2 discs, and make something more interesting out of this weight. Heavier weapon setup on each disc obviously, maybe something cooler ?

First time I'm confused. And to be honest Ironforge is where I go just to let loose with an idea I have in my head, whether I make them effective in battle or not. What's wrong with being proud of something nowadays?

If you want something to critique, I've recently uploaded some DSL bots. And I know you're extremely familiar with that.

Thanks for the feedback though as always Naryar ^^

Maybe it is merely the bot's shadow. I don't know.

The darker parts above the wedges, are they components or just shadows ?

I think Nar might be looking at these

So I can kinda understand his question, but they are shadows.

Looking back on it... I guess that was kinda out of order for me to say that. Apologies to Naryar.

My first attempt at a humanoid bot.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QbxGgsI9nFc&feature=youtu.be#

It's meant to do 'the twist' which was a dance from the 1960's made famous by the song of the same name. Though the bot ended up turning into some form of shufflebot.... And full body spinner (watch til the end for that)

yugitom · « **Reply #197 on:** March 16, 2015, 05:58:07 PM »

Ha ha, I quite like that.

RedAce · « **Reply #198 on:** March 16, 2015, 06:02:45 PM »

Servos love to havok and have the bot go bonkers. But still...

I WANT TO DANCE WITH THAT

Tibsy · « **Reply #199 on:** March 16, 2015, 06:04:51 PM »

Well I've decided to skin it. Nothing special, gonna give it a lovely tuxedo.
