Andyman Posted January 31, 2010 Share Posted January 31, 2010 My 3 most recent Andybots. I'm trying to decide if either of these will make the cut for the gallery in Topeka this summer. I have until March to commit 3 pieces. BDI-1 Navigator (complete with compass that can't seem to find north) Megohms Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JimK Posted January 31, 2010 Share Posted January 31, 2010 Hey Andy, What a fantastic job. They are all top notch, but I am partial to Megohms out of the 3. JimK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Electric Robot and Son Posted January 31, 2010 Share Posted January 31, 2010 Really nice Andy!! How did you get the circuit board image on the front of Megohms? Are his eyes made from earplugs? Very imaginative! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robothut Posted January 31, 2010 Share Posted January 31, 2010 Great bots andy! I like BDI-1 the best and Megohms is my second favorite. Haveing said that Navigator is a great piece because its so different from the other two. So these three would make for a very good display I think.

Andyman Posted January 31, 2010 Author Share Posted January 31, 2010 Really nice Andy!! How did you get the circuit board image on the front of Megohms? Are his eyes made from earplugs? Very imaginative!Joe, what your see there are two overlays of printed circuit plastic sheeting that you would find inside computer keyboards. I was trying to come up with some surface detail for Megohms when I placed one of those sheets on him. It looked alright but then I used two different colored sheets on him and it just popped! It adds a really cool layered effect. And yes, those are ear buds you see for the eyes. :)Here some detail shots on Megohms.Some alt pics of the other two.

Tinplate6 Posted January 31, 2010 Share Posted January 31, 2010 Andy, are all your parts cobbled together, or do you mill/lathe some of the pieces? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andyman Posted February 1, 2010 Author Share Posted February 1, 2010 Andy, are all your parts cobbled together, or do you mill/lathe some of the pieces?TP, I don't mill or lathe anything but some pieces are indeed fabricated. Like BDI-1's feet are wood core pieces with a metal veneer attached to them.Thanks for the kind comments everybody! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dratomic Posted February 9, 2010 Share Posted February 9, 2010 They all look great. Navigator actually sort of reminds me of a butler... Or maybe he's navigating his way to the opera or something? :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roboto Posted February 9, 2010 Share Posted February 9, 2010 This is my favorite one. Very cool looking he is. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
