Ironforge TC Showcases / Artyom's [Insert Witty Title Here] Ironforge Showcase

« on: January 24, 2015, 05:33:28 PM »

Hey guys, haven't dropped by here for a while (Well, that's a lie, I've lurked.). Anyway, here's my first ever Ironforge bot. The splash is kinda terrible, as it's pretty late, I'm pretty tired. The bot is more geared towards aesthetics than use. As in, I haven't tested it in battle, but I'd like to see  if people like what I've made, and whether to expand on that style, or head in different directions. Any and all criticism is welcome!

Just as a point, it is loosely based on the real robot Twister, as per the random blade on the back.

DSL TC Showcases / Artyom's Average DSL Showcase

« on: August 27, 2014, 07:55:52 AM »

Well, it's about time I started with this. I have a couple questions before I post my first bot here, which seems a tad weird for one of these threads, but I'd rather not necro random threads for answers. Basically, I'm trying to BFE the back of the chassis so it goes something like   
 ___
/           
\___

that. It's weird, I know, but the first robot I wanted to do was my own, to at least a semi realistic standard. I will follow your lot's advice, and work on a singular bot at a time (Bar the first, which is just for fun and practice. I will be making IRL, hopefully half decent bots.

Thanks guys, the bot will be up shortly after I find out the fix to my problem. Sorry if this chassis has been done already, with a tut, but I can't find it for the life of me.

[EDIT] Yeah, I realised that my profile picture has what I needed to do. Oh well, if you can see the back of that, that's basically what I want, if possible. I'm sure it's been done, I remember a picture with a similar in, out and back in bit.

Robots Showcase / The Procrastnitron

« on: July 31, 2014, 08:40:30 AM »

Sooo, first post here. Anyone like NerdCubed? If so, you may find yourself familiar with the name. The Procrasnitron is a... erm... Tribute of sorts, to my favourite YouTuber for the past couple of years, Daniel Hardcastle.

Anyway, here's a link to the robot itself: http://imgur.com/xvUb4WR
O plan to make it an interchangable "Boop Stick" AKA Hammer, and it's original component, the flipper. Maybe one day, a crusher, but the budget won't allow that.

So... err... That's about that. Oh, and hello everyone!
