Was watching Battlebots last night, and there's a Trans Pride Flag themed bot! That's the first time I've seen any bot teams displaying pride like that, and I have to admit, that's a cute design. 馃榿
Watch Battlebots, it's like gladiator fights but without the actual injury and there's like flamethrowers and buzzsaws and huge chunks of machinery getting launched into the air at high speeds.
You know, I had read the "Jaime and Adam's BattleBot was too powerful for competition so they were sent home with a 1st prize" story, but it's incredible to hear that the story was totally true (although it was the predecessor competition, Robot Wars, and the team was "Jaime's shop, that Adam worked in").
Battle bots fucking rule okay look at these dudes and their lil faces. Why aren鈥檛 we channeling all of our angst about the dystopian future into building battle bots????
I just realized I only ever posted this to facebook and not my actual art socials!
Inspired by Hotkoin's (@pencilbrony ) humanized Battlebot designs, I made these two of my boyfriend's bot Offbeat and his teammate's bot Giant Horse Conch/Baseline! They went to Norwalk Havoc back in January when they did their new bots only event, and made the cut to come back in November for finals.
