Title: Father and Son 2 - SBV
Post by: yugitom on August 04, 2014, 11:45:14 AM
The splashes for this were tedious but I finally finished them. I didn't like the way I did the splash last time, so I instead went for the father and son to be in the same shot together.

Aside for Ransaw and Chensaw which don't look IRL at all and look more like failed normal DSL bots, everything looks pretty decent.

Spongebob joke bots go way back in RA2 history. They're part of tradition.

"Underweight/No Weakness"? - My bots havok and basically suck if they get out wedged :P

Edit: Just seen I'm up against williamjones. Well thanks yug1tom it was a great tournament, maybe next time I'll get past the first round.

Okay... My Opinions

Megabyte + Byte 2= I made these and now looking back I'm skeptical about the ground clearance

Hurricane + Twister= Formidable looking team and I would not like to face them, could go far

Supersnug + Superplug= another great team though on the HW I think the wheelguards are hindering invertablility

Welcome to Jackass LW/HW= Love the name, good looking bots as well, unstability will be an issue however

VDX MK 2.1 + VDX Mini MK 1.1= looks like one of those bots that was built at a scrapyard, looks awesome

Ransaw + Chensaw = Unfortunately they are powerful, cause they do not look realistic at all

Machete + Pen knife = Flipper? Is the burst motor BFE'd or something because I see no flipper at all, skeptical about the exposed burst motor
 
Game Over + Halftime = Powerful looking, could go far

Acid Thunder 2 + Acid Cloud 2 = Apart from the exposed WBC wheels on the HW and the wedges, decent

Vanguard + Bandit = Looks good, wonder if the ground clearance is high as well

Bob the Boxer + Patrick the retard = XD

My Mother smokes crack rocks + THE CHICKEN COW = My opponents, good ground clearance but the exposed motor on the LW looks fragile

I didn't do it + Maybe I did = HW is messymessymessy, LW looks good though

ULTIMO IMPLOSION + IMPLOSION = Good looking flipper, could go far

Acid Thunder + Acid Cloud = Wedges look weird, but apart from that, cool

WilliamJones + littlegay = #williamjones

Overall, a variety in the good, decent and bad robots

What? SUPERSNUG uses his flipper to self-right and the LW doesn't have wheel guards

Machete + Pen knife = Flipper? Is the burst motor BFE'd or something because I see no flipper at all, skeptical about the exposed burst motor

The Overkill blade is used as a front-hinged flipper of sorts, that's why there's an exposed burst motor.

WilliamJones + littlegay = #williamjones

Yes.

I guess wedgy-ness is a problem but now I cba to change the splash. Also, they never havok on me, mate.

Also, I'm sorry about your draw, I swear it was completely random. Hope you don't get completely destroyed.

A lot of these robots can be flipped out or flipped over without coming back.

I'm glad I stuck with my flippers... I most likely won't win however as some of the bots are very deadly... (And unrealistic)

I'm in the same boat as you. I chose flippers because of the arena walls being low, thinking I'd have a chance for OOTAing my way through.

Supersnug + Superplug= another great team though I think the wheelguards are hindering invertablility

What? SUPERSNUG uses his flipper to self-right and the LW doesn't have wheel guards


It's in case the flipper breaks off, you always got to have a backup just in case

Oh yeah, just remembered; What does the seed list look like? (Or will that be included in the videos?)
The top 4 seeds can be seen in signups. The rest of the seeds can be determined from looking at the brackets. Anyone who entered the first tournament gets a spot, randomly, in the top 8. The rest get a randomly chosen seed from 9 to 16. So, SNUPERSNUG is top seed and WTJ was picked to be 16th seed, you get the idea.

Considering you already had a match with Ransaw and Chensaw, I'll replace that fight with the 'ultimate grudge match', ha ha. I will record it tomorrow (later today technically) as I will be wider awake.
