8x8 Acrylic on wood. This piece sold at the Blue Bottle Show in Seattle last September. I liked it so much that I just completed a new robot painting that is bigger and shows even more of the robot. I will post soon.

this quilt was machine pieced and quilted. the fabric is Robot by David Walker. i wanted to showcase the center fabric. so cute!
i cut strips of varying width, adding snippets here and there, till i was happy.
finished size 37x33.
Rampax is from a series of six 5" plastic robots made by CGGC in Italy. They were sold in kit form and had to be assembled. I don’t know when they were first produced, but I was given the individually boxed Rampax in 1985.
The six robots were not completely different, but shared components such as arms, legs and feet. These pieces were all interchangeable and it seems that some were randomly packed out, so the makeup of specific robots was inconsistent. Each robot had two distinct, spring launched weapons. The long weapon for the bent right arm protruded from the elbow and hooked in place; pushing up on the hook launched the weapon. The left arm had a mechanism in the shoulder that held the weapon in place while the arm was down, but launched the devise when the arm was raised.
The robots were also distributed in France by a company named Remus, which sold them in two sets of three. The French packaging was quite different from the Italian boxes that I’ve seen, but the plastic parts were still molded in Italy. Again, I have no idea of the original time line for these, but I obtained an incomplete set in 1991.
Five of the robots - Drakis, Torang, Fergus, Argon and Rampax - kept their names for both Italian and French issues. The sixth one, originally Satan in Italy, was renamed Mirox in France. I guess that the French didn’t want kids playing with the devil.
I did custom work on my Rampax robot. I added leg gears, hinge covers and insect pin antennas, and did a complete paint job.
*sigh*
My very last Tip-In with a twist journal page. I did a little bit of stalking on my partner and found out she likes robots, ha! How fun was this guy AND I got to play around with some more of those develish little tags too. See a trend here? Hehe.
All handpainted with acrylics and prismacolor pencils except for the tags.
I simply just uploaded this video to be able to upload the creation to mocpages .... just shows some functionality
Photos from the Virginia Beach Fire Training Center this week of testing being done on the latest robotic technology available to emergency response agencies. ASTI International along with federal agencies to include NSTI and the Department of Homeland Security were here at the training center to test and evaluate the various systems available today. They are doing standardize testing on the robotic systems to help various emergency response agencies and the military determine and quantify the capabilities of these systems. This testing /competing helps agencies determine what are the best systems for their particular missions and even increases proficiency of the users of these systems. Robotics developers from as far away as Japan and elsewhere around the world are here to participate in this unique event.
The robotics systems included ground, aerial and aquatic robots, maneuvering through special obstacle courses built for this event. Some of the robots even maneuvered through the “Burn House” at the fire training center. Local police departments and military units are participating with their bomb disposal units and NYFD and other fire departments across the country are also participating.

I crocheted a robot for my nephew to match the pjs I got him for xmas :) No pattern, just made it up as I went along.
A robot designed for working in the atmospheres of gas giants. Utilizes vacuum buoyancy technology to stay "afloat".
"Robot Monster is a 1953 American black-and-white science fiction film made in 3-D by Phil Tucker and distributed by Astor Pictures. It is frequently considered one of the worst films ever made.Years later, Robot Monster was included as one of the choices in the book The Fifty Worst Films of All Time."

Broken Heart Robot is created by Craig Anthony Perkins. I always have a dilemma on how to display him as everywhere I place him, he seems very unhappy. =P

This guy is basically a follow-up to "Alpha Two" and "Beta Three". I'm planning on doing a robot for each letter of the Greek alphabet.
A quick update on my Jaeger project. It's still in the works. I've got Cherno stripped down to his frame and I've started to piece together Gipsy Danger. I may start posting WIP pics every so often to keep everyone up to date on my progress.
