you could at least have not ripped off my name style, cmon man.
True. I'm just surprised you didn't make a HW version of Astraphobia and Lilasaphobia earlier. I was mostly building it with the name in mind since google gave me disgusting and freaky images when I searched it from curiosity.

Whats with the wheels?
It's just extra weight for the rubbers. Couldn't really do much else with 10 kg.

BOTM is over, so I'll show my entry since it lost by three votes.



Yeah, I was going for a dark tone with this and I felt to keep things simple this time so it could look like a professional splash this time and it worked. This is my best BOTM entry by far.

Actually, this isn't it's first version that was built. The first version looked like this:

#1 Good design, but not interesting enough. Seems like Redace.
How'd you guess that? O_o

One more thing to say. I'm out of ideas, again. Any ideas on what I can build next?

YAS I WAS RIGHT :D

I knew because:
1. It seemed like the kind of bot you would make.
2. The text in the splash looked like the text you use to present your other robots.
3. The use of ASAI. Most of your battleshots for other robots in your showcase use this pack.
4. The way you talked about it. For whatever reason, it just seemed fishy. Especially the last bit.
:P

#1: Not bad at all. The splash seems pretty ominous though. Dunno who made it though

You very nearly won BOTM. It was a tie game until the very last day of voting.

Really cool. How do the Snapper2 wedges hold up against other HWs?

Any ideas on what I can build next?
Go for a FS/Drum

Done:



798, DSA, 2 Blacks. I'm not as pleased with this one. Maybe I could rebuild it as a SHW and see how that goes.


Anymore ideas? Keep em comin.'

Try an FS/Hammer for the frontal destruction of an FS with the downward crash of a hammer.

I really like the FS/Drum. I think you should rebuild it as a SHW.
Follow me on Twitter? I'd like to see you try!

Oh right. I had a thing to do. But first, BTTB V entry:



I know this isn't very much like the original, but if I were to try to go to a style of the original Atomic, I might as well have re-entered Stiletto.

798.2, DSA, 2 niftys, 1 Mega-Tank. DDT wedges. Can't self right. If you face this and you have good wedges, you will win good sir.

Probably. I believe at least one gives enough power for about two motors, double that amount and it should be good. It really needs power to drive.

Likely just fit the chassis design better at the cost of a mere 2kg.

Also this is probably sort of what I would have come up with had I done sages wedged poker instead of the ridiculous hybrid, albeit way better done here


For once the mods did something right

a hybrid is never ridiculous, it is actually awesome but it is just you that perceive it as ridiculous

A month and 13 days?  Let's fix that.



It's a Popup/Wammer hybrid.  I hope I can still stock.  HPZs, DSA, 3 Razors on the DDT, one black, and the rest should be visible.
