Since my original work on BOB (Bret's OmniBot) I have worked on a couple of other robots and now Bob is feeling left out. So it is time for an upgrade. Soon he will become Gunslinger Bob and sport some killer weaponry. Thanks Josh!

Nice idea with the servo stand offs, I may need to do something similar with my bots arms after cutting the arm piece down too much and making it difficult to attach it to the servo
Nice! I have been debating cutting the handle off of the bottom of the gun. Are you filling the whole or just leaving it open? I believe I will cut all mine down too. Gonna put lasers on them? I picked up 6 laser pointers at the auction to add laser dots to both arms and chest
im concerned they arent bright enough for daylight to see tthrough the camera but we will see
great job making the custom servo mounts.
Thanks! Yeah, I'm going to fill in the holes and I have already drilled the hole to mount my laser. Now I am thinking about paint. I was going to go with a black white and grey camo theme like from WWII ships, but now I am thinking a gloss black with silver accents (he is a gunslinger after all). What do you think?
I think camo patterns on a mech warrior is awesome.
I'm thinking of doing a Dazzle Camouflage paint job like they used on ships in WW1 and WW2.
What do you think?
Looks kinda like a futuristic zebra , yea that could be cool
Well, after much debate I have made a decision about paint. But I am going to keep it a secret until Gunslinger Bob is revealed. Mua Ha Ha
I got Bob's guns and shoulders painted and tonight I should be able to assemble his guns. Or at least mount them onto the shoulder servos. I am still waiting on a module to power my laser sights.
