taking a 2nd crack at it, but can someone make a skin for me?

it's called "Silent Rage". it's a png, so save as 24-bit bitmap. white is the top

first one to do a good job in my opinion gets to see it before anyone else.

no theme, just make it look cool

Wolfsbane · « **Reply #42 on:** September 12, 2011, 03:34:34 PM »

edit: is anyone trying?

NO. When your'e not good/your bots aren't quality no one is really going to give a dern. Maybe when you impress somebody with something new/better/notanythinglikethelastbot.

i only asked for a skin because i can't, all i got is paint. but if people are getting fussy, fine, i'll skin it myself

EDIT: Here's the bot

plastic, 2 blacks, 27 irons, 9 on a tribar, 1 tribar on an hpz.

....The wheels look a little exposed-like, and I think your over-doing it with the Snappers.

I coudn't cram the drive HPZ in there, and i felt like with snapper 2's, i can put them all in the center, protected.

You could EASILY cut back on Snappers, and STILL fit it all in there.

Ok look, heres how I have Crazy Gadget's wheels set-up:

You could actually set up your weapon motors like this, and it would potentially save you some weight.

Its actually not as hard as it looks.
Its just a matter of planning your set-ups ahead of time, before you start placing parts on randomly.

Avalanche · « **Reply #52 on:** September 13, 2011, 10:35:52 AM »

J isnt lieing.I made my bots liek this:Idea, chassis out of the air and then slap components on.JUST LISTEN TO HIM.
That cut back my skill loads.

Wolfsbane · « **Reply #53 on:** September 13, 2011, 12:31:38 PM »

i usually do that, but i decided to think ahead this time.

DSA, 2 blacks, Drive protected.

Thoughts?

J · « **Reply #54 on:** September 13, 2011, 12:39:40 PM »

Looks MUCH better, and you were even able to upgrade your armor.
...Snowplow seems kinda' random, though. Same with the EMERGENCY wedge.

Wolfsbane · « **Reply #55 on:** September 13, 2011, 01:04:05 PM »

emergancy wedge is for defence of falling backwards (like a flip), and snowplow is for chassia protection

Edit: New bot, gave it a rust skin, and took a screenie

DSA, anyone wanna name it?

That middle Servo is eating up your weight.
2 Anchors would do the job better.
And you could maybe get away with just 1 air tank.

Meh, it looks like a Servo from the way you took the screenshot.
(More of a reason why I take angled screenshots)

That does look surprisingly like an anchor.
