Ranger Posted November 3, 2012 Share Posted November 3, 2012 A couple of members have said how much they like garage robots. This one I did a while back but it got lost from the site a when Brian had a web site problem,or maybe he just did not like it! I should have repainted it but it was more of a trial and error effort really to see how effective it would be.I am biased but I think it looks good in the dark and lit up.

Ultrarobotman Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 Ranger,I think Your new 'bot looks great. It is very hard to see,do the arms move while driving; if so, could You take over where Metal House is leaving off?? :thumbs: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ranger Posted November 8, 2012 Author Share Posted November 8, 2012 Thanks for your replies.No,the arms are fixed on this robot.It could be made with moving arms of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Electric Robot and Son Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 The Robby piloted R1 is excellent. What did you use for the floor of the cockpit? It looks like a piece of litho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ranger Posted November 9, 2012 Author Share Posted November 9, 2012 Hi joe,the floor is simply the front of the R1 cut out top and sides and then folded in to create the floor. Then a hole was cut in it for robby to sit in. The background is a blown up scene from Alps T.V spaceman.I then added another light above robby in the cockpit.Not a lot to it really,just some carefull hand sawing.
