Hello everyone, I am working on another project, its just at the beginning, but I thought I would share a little with all of you. At this point I am just fitting the body together. I shall share more later.

These claws are really weird and awesome at the same time haha. Excited to see how they work
Well the weather warmed up today, so I took advantage and I sprayed primer on my robot today came out perfect. Still have to prime the arms. Also coming up with ideas for the chest and some lighting also, just taking my time.
I just wanted to show some updated pictures of my robot ROAMIN. I have been working on his chest and front area, need to sand a bit more and fill in a few pin holes and some low areas around the seam where I fused the two bodies untop of each other. I think its looking very smooth myself.
So far, so good. Nice craftsmanship! Looks like your having a ton of fun.
@Dave Schulpius Well let's just say it is a job of it's own, but yes I am having fun doing it, but the body is a lot of hand work, sort of like restoring a car or truck, which I have 8 restores that I have done. Once I get the body all smoothed out and the lines straighten I will be spraying some colors, it will be 2 colors. I still have to setup my lightening for the chest area, trying to keep it as clean and smooth looking as I can. Now that the weather is getting warmer, I can get things done and not be so anxious to get the V4 kit and other things that I have on preorder. Dave I also wanted to say your craftsmanship is far better than mine, your robot is one heck of a build, hopefully as time goes on I will build a larger bot :-}
Yes! hats off to you, Dave. You both have done a GREAT job!
Hello everyone :-} Well today I started painting my robot Roamin, the temperature was perfect and I had plenty of time so I locked myself in the garage. The two colors I am using is Dupli color Gunmetal Grey Metallic and Metalcast Anodized Blue, the two colors look very good together and of course I clear coated everything. I have decided not to have 2 sets of arms, originally I was going to have 2 sets of arms, uppers and lowers, since I fuzed 2 bodies on top of each other. Where the lower arms were to go, I am going to put speakers instead. I will have 2 speakers in the front of the robot and 1 speaker on each side of the robot, each set of speakers will be used for 2 different things. Front ones will be used for when he talks and the side ones will be for music and weather radio, things like that. I have to goto the auto parts store tomorrow and get some more paint, came close to having enough, but need abit more. I will post pictures once the paint cures for a few days, I am in no hurry, just happy to get some color on my bot. Still working on making shoulder covers also :-} Hopefully by the time the V4 kit and the other things I have on order gets here in July, the body will be ready to come alive :-}
