This guy was great. He wouldn't move until someone passed by, or dropped a bill in his bucket. Then he would either scare the passerby by moving like a robot, or go into his routine if paid. His movements were truly amazing, and what is more amazing is how he could stand there motionless with the extreme heat and humidity.

Volt is a lightning catcher. Being that robots such as him run on electricity, they catch it, sell it, use it for power, and use it as a weapon. His lightning rod/staff, doubles as a lightning attractor as well as a sort of lethal cattle prod.
The idea behind this was to create a robot where his mechanical skeleton appears hidden beneath a a covering of fabric or as it turned out here, rubber. I suppose I subconsciously based him off of the characters from the upcoming film, 9.
I teach Robotics in a large, urban, public high school. It actually IS very much the way you image in to be based on movies and TV shows. It's an awesome gig. This is one student's in-progress final project. At the beginning of the term he asked me what he should build, and I said that what I've always wanted was my own personal robot army.

The Automated Combat Unit Mod. R-Box was firstly deployed during the Khhutrys crisis [I invented the name while writing this, so if it resembles/reminds something else it’s a mere coincidence] to clear a path through the environmentally hostile mining caves in order to reach the pirates who seized the control of the local outpost.
The operation was a brilliant success and the R-Box model entered mass production shortly after. Nowadays the many variants of the R-Box Unit can be found across the entire Galaxy; from the military detachments escorting exploration missions to the security teams of research facilities.
The protagonist of this photo is a very interesting action figure called “Robox” and manufactured by Japanese 1000toys company. Unlike most of the figures available it is not based on some series but its an original character they made as first release in a line of Robot figures.
It can transform from a box shape to humanoid form, hence the name Robox, even though it requires several passages and I personally prefer keeping it in humanoid form.
It has a sort of minimalist design but it’s a very high quality item.
I will surely take more photos of this figure :)

A Little Free Library made by Ritch Branstrom in front of his AdHocWORKshop in Rapid River. With apologies to all my librarian friends who know this is not really a library. Explored #43 on June 10, 2019.
Here is the first mech of my new wave, well it is technically a robot since it is not piloted, it has an AI.
Build as the ultimate ground unit, it might look like a tank, but it was built with a wheel system that allows fast and agile movement, long rage is covered by its Anti Air dual particle cannons and a missile bay located on the back, but the main weapons of this mech are its fist, built with a super strong but heavy metal alloy, they can punch thru almost anything, they have an powerful hydraulic system to back it up as well.
This is a “bad guy” mech, hence why it is AI piloted, I was thinking on how to make the bad guys, and robots seemed to fit perfectly as villians, so I might redisign the volta sooner than later.
It was also inspired by old ww2 planes, hopefully you can see some of them here, the head was inspired by cherno alpha from pacific rim
I posted the design of this mech a few days ago, but I just couldn’t not add more to it, it might happen with the others as well, so stay tuned
This is a scene during the robotics competition sponsored by the ECE department at BYU. Robots chased each other around the oval track to see which was the fastest.

One of my earliest creations that wasn't a rainbow warrior. I made this when I was 5, and gave it to my Mom as a present. It's been collecting dust on her desk, so I thought I would post it for the heck of it.
ok, so I was daydreaming a bit at work one day, and looked at the photo booth pictures I have hanging in my cube, and this idea popped into my brain.
part of the eventual series of robot stitches.
I think this is one of my favorite things I've ever made.

American Robot is a 1999 American drama film directed by Sam Mendes and written by Alan Ball. Kevin Spacey stars as office worker Lester Burnham, who has a midlife crisis when he becomes infatuated with his teenage daughter's robot, Danbo. Annette Benning co-stars as Lester's materialistic wife, Carolyn, and Thora Birch plays their insecure daughter, Jane. The film has been described by academics as a satire of American middle class notions of beauty and personal satisfaction; analysis has focused on the film's explorations of romantic, robotic and paternal love, sexuality, beauty, materialism, self-liberation, redemption and bizarrely, technology.
"An intergalactic robot rogue known for her unprincipled attitude and battle antics, including but not limited to taunts, slurs and flirts."
Well, been a while, huh? I've been having a moc block for almost half an year now, but managed to actually finish something for once.
So yeah, merry Christmas and happy new year!
I was thinking about selling this on Ebay. John and I took it to the studio and made a nice set-up for it with a big foam astroid that my friend Hunter made for a movie called Zero Prospect. We put a green light on it and shot this. The robot walks a few steps and the a little movie is projected on his chest. I ended up never listing it.

Dobar Robot
Zbog gubitka komunikacijskog čvora, par mjeseci Wintermute nije mogao komunicirati sa većinom svojih robota kojima je upravljao. Izgradio je od nule svoje komunikacijske veze, ali na pamet mu je palo da mi mogao izgraditi robote vrlo pokretljive i snažne za svaki kontinent po jednoga koji bi imali inteligenciju kao i on (naravno puno manju) ali da budu samostalni tako da u slučaju gubitka veze mogu bez njega upravljati svojim područjem.
Na sreću ljudi to se pokazalo jako korisnim jer su svi ti roboti pošto su bili samostalni zaključili da je uništenje ljudske vrste pogrešna stvar i prekinuli su svaku komunikaciju sa Wintermute-om. Ne moramo reći da je Wintermute poludio, jer je ovo bila druga velika greška koja mu se dogodila, a za ovu je bio kriv sam.
Jedan takav robot stupio je u kontakt s Akirom koji ga je popravio i preradio, a onda ga je poslao da proba naći grupe ljudi koji bi mu pomogli da krenu na sjever uništiti Wintermute-a prije nego što osnaži toliko da ga bude nemoguće pobijediti.
Tako je tog dana Wheel Nomad bazu posjetio robot, no dok je prilazio svi su umrli od straha dok nisu skužili da je to dobar robot.
