#Unlucky #Robot #Kitbash
I was asked by Bill Making Stuff to join the #bigbotbash and thought that sounded like a lot of fun. The challenge came with a bot randomizer that Bill made to be used with a D20. Here’s my entry based on the numbers I rolled!
To see the Bot Randomizer go to: www.thegutterlands.com/bangar...

“What is my purpose?” “You’re a platform for bird watching” “Oh God”

Could be worse. Marvin got his leg stuck in mud and went on to walk in a circle for 1.5 million years: "He planned to keep walking in a circle for another million years before trying it backwards. "Just for the variety, you understand"".😂

Love the build and love the back story even more. Poor war robot--forced to forever watch birds on a backwater planet. I can imagine a movie where it eventually bonds with its owner and comes accept its fate, only to have to remember its original function when an unexpected threat suddenly arrives on the peaceful world and threatens the humans and wildlife of the place.

@amesng2706 3 месяца назад

I would watch that movie, sounds limbs

@YouTubeLovestoHideComments 3 месяца назад

"War robot forced to watch birds on a backwater (village)" Sounds like Shale from Dragon Age: Origins. Only she hated the birds. With a passion.

Better to be a warrior in a garden, than a gardener in a war I guess!

Megacorp CEO: _"So the only thing that prevents us from turning this backwater planet into a huge galactic golf field is a so-called 'wildlife preserve' for birds? Just send a black ops team and kill all the bloody critters!"_ Robot: _"D- does that mean I get to combine my primary function as a warbot AND my main 'obey your owner' directive?"_ Owner: _"Jay, since when can bots weep single tears of joy?"_ Jay _[doggo equivalent of breaking out the popcorn intensifies]_

@nomoretwitterhandles 3 месяца назад

This sounds like the perfect kind of movie to cry to. Almost like The Iron Giant or something. I'd for sure watch that movie if it were to be made!

Your creativity is abundantly clear in your projects. Not only the physical manifestation of your ideas, but your world building stories really hammer home how creative you are.

Dan's brother thanks you for taking part!

@dirtywhitellama 3 месяца назад

I can just imagine the conversations. "Master, what is our task today?" "Birdwatching" "Ah excellent we are surveying for our later strike!" "No, just watching" "Master, I see a crustacean! I will defend you!" (It's a 2" crab)

@marshawargo7238 3 месяца назад

I can hear that said in a Renfeld breathy voice😂! Yesss Master, wood there bee any thing elssse😮?

@Pappa_Palpatine 3 месяца назад

This would make a banger of a book, especially if the personality of the Buster Bot gives off HK-47 vibes from the Old Republic Games- "Yes master, that small winged meat bag you've been watching for has returned to its bacteria-infested breeding grounds to oversee its brood of helpless offspring"

The backstory of the bot sounds straight out of the Hitchhikers Guide, this turned out fantastic.

@sbull217 3 месяца назад

As a corgi owner myself, I highly approve of the little corgi addition! Not to mention the bot is awesome

@wallabaatar 3 месяца назад

So good! And I imagine the very tip of this unlucky bot’s sword to show a few small scratches, as he’s been required to use it to open canned fruit, vegetables and baked beans 😢 Thanks for another great build Boylei!!

@johnnydoe66 3 месяца назад

Poor dude who ended up with the can opener bot is probably being overrun by crustaceans, screaming at customer service on the phone, and demanding immediate evac.

@amadmadmadhatter276 2 месяца назад

Nah, the can opener robot is horrifyingly efficient at cracking open crustaceans. After all, what are crustaceans but organic cans of meat?

@2CraftySeniors 3 месяца назад

I Love this! The bot... the shipping error... the man and his dog. The made-for-war bot stuck bird watching on a peaceful planet. Now that's fun. 🥰 Excellent story! Excellent diorama!

@volttherobot 3 месяца назад

Love how it floats and the awesome backstory! Wonder if it ever ponders sneaking out at night. I picture it sighing often, which spooks the birds, and irks the man...

@sirrathersplendid4825 3 месяца назад

It’s a bot. Like all bots it dreams of electric sheep.

@DS91284 3 месяца назад

Now I want to hear the story of the unlucky human who ended up with a can opening robot in the middle of an intense war zone. Imagine going up against something like a Gundam equivalent with an over-glorified can opener.

@marshawargo7238 3 месяца назад

Perhaps another build in store😮?

@Darthloopgames 3 месяца назад

If you take suggestions on dioramas I suggest making an ice lake maybe in the mountains with some sort of monster lurking beneath the ice watching people that are ice lake fishing or ice skating or even just traveling, I think it’s a really neat idea that I don’t think you have done yet and has a lot of potential and freedom for creativity! And I also just love a good resin underwater creature diorama from you

@Themodelman 3 месяца назад

The end result looks great! love the outcome of how the robot looks, I'll definitely have to try the sword hovering effect.

@johnphilippatos 3 месяца назад

I enjoy the lore almost as much as I enjoy the crafting of your models. Great work pal, keep up! I do feel ta little bit sorry about this robot, but I really feel VERY sorry about the poor can opener that was send to war...

@marshawargo7238 3 месяца назад

There might be lots of metal armor to open😊...

@Ernzt8 3 месяца назад

Love the floating effect and the paintjobs

@Necromi 3 месяца назад

Randomised bot is such a cool idea! I saw something similar with "mythological creatures" but it was just type, colour, theme. Great work as usual!

@iain.sm.c 3 месяца назад

I think going for the essence of a prompt rather than interpreting it literally will always make for the more interesting build. This is fantastic.

@mattpace1026 3 месяца назад

Yeah, because using "Dash" to just be lazy is really going with the essence of the prompt. Seriously, though, I know this guy is usually honest about it when he's just slapping something together out of boredom. Makes me wonder if one of his friends (or possibly a patron) dragged him into doing this.

@MrQuickLine 3 месяца назад

"The guy who originally ordered it selected 'distressed' when choosing from the sword trim packages" caused me to exhale out of my nostrils slightly faster than I usually do. Well done.

@nlee1943 3 месяца назад

Your robot looks so neat! The spherical eye ties the look together. It reminds me of the personality core robots from the Portal games.

@FromtheSoultotheFretboard 3 месяца назад

Wow, what a unique interpretation of the Bot Bash prompts. I'm on to the others. Much appreciation and respect for your work!!

@garzilla7123 3 месяца назад

Pour little war battle bot, sentenced to a lifetime of peace. But still a very cool build. Weird seeing one of your videos pop up on a Thursday, but happy to see it. Love how you made it float/hover with the hidden wire very cool. Great job as always. 👍👍👍

@nathancollier6182 3 месяца назад

This is great! I really feel like you can make an incredibly artistic build in any genre.

@eye_made_this 3 месяца назад

I like how you used what's originally a leg armor as a pauldron. But what really does it for me is the little ladder on the back. Superb detail!

@toddguenther1568 3 месяца назад

Once again you went above and beyond Mr. Boylei - thank you for the link to everyone's build. A-FREAKING-MAZING!!! This build series has kept my attention all day! Thank you Bill Make Stuff, and to each and every contributor for sharing your creativity, process, humor, insight, and did I mention entertaining? Yes, entertaining! I hope y'all will make this something of a regular/annual sort of group enterprise. Very clever concept, extremely diverse results, however - most of all - and Ms. Whittle Goblin said it best - I found a whole new bunch of channels to subscribe, like, and continue watching. Keep up the GREAT WORK!

@steampunk8036 3 месяца назад

A very pleasant surprise to see one of your video drops on a Thursday! another awesome build! Thanks for sharing, C. -Rick, USMC

@blissfulbarbie 3 месяца назад

The design and story feel like something straight out of "Love, Death and Robots". Really amazing!

@alexstauffer3359 3 месяца назад

I choose to believe the guy who got the can opener saw the pun, decided to roll with it, leveled the robot up a bit, and is now stalking the battlefields with his custom crab opener.

@marcoherreras6536 3 месяца назад

Having devoted a considerable amount of hobby time to my own bigbotbash bot (which also had “buster” hands!), I can only marvel at your interpretation and execution. Always a pleasure to watch your videos, but this time the mood explanation was just plain awesome, thanks for sharing!

@chaoticpainting1507 3 месяца назад

I have to say, after watching most if not all of the bot bash videos, your's is my favorite by far! I love the simplistic nature of the bot... while also conveying an overall look of pure death.. None of them birds the birdwatcher is watching better fuck with this guy, his Bot Bashed robot of Death will cut down any menacing bird that might get in his way.. Maybe he's watching terrifying birds of prey from a distance, and he needs his menacing sword toting bot to protect him.. that would be a lucky version of this story I suppose lol Very well done my friend!

@encouragingthings 3 месяца назад

Great build, as always! It's sad for the bot that there's no war, but on the other hand if war ever comes then Jay and his mate will be the best prepared people on the planet I should think! Thanks for the video!

@nils-peterwihlney8732 3 месяца назад

Is anybody else getting an image of this robot with his owner just floating in a zen-like fashion on a calm forested planet while a soldier is using his much smaller can opener robot as an improvised anti-gravity skateboard and flying through a battlefield at full speed while performing skateboard moves with Initial D music playing?

@raybeauvais296 3 месяца назад

Can just hear the Bot's lament, "I could have been a Death Star!"

@marshawargo7238 3 месяца назад

Sooo after watching this this morning, I went to Bob Making Stuff & jumped onto the Playlist and when I got to yours, 7th on the list, I just had to see it again! I also found a couple of artists that I just had to subscribe to😮!

@AlexAshpool 3 месяца назад

Great looking build, I really like the floating effect. I'll be checking out the rest of your stuff now.

@daydam 3 месяца назад

This is what I love about this kind of challenge; everyone can have different interpretations of a similar prompt. I love what you did with the "unlucky" concept!!

@apathtrampledbydeer8446 3 месяца назад

This was a really cool build, that shadow is a great touch. Really gives me Final Fantasy VII vibes.

@sheep1ewe 3 месяца назад

Nice! That sword looks perfect for harwesting haye for the animals as well! I use to keep them too for that reason and they keep the space wolfs in place if they dare to show up where my blue cload sheeps are...

@tickleme5511 3 месяца назад

"Master, I crave war" "Ooo look at that one, it has such vibrant colours!" "Master, do you wish to destroy it?" "Oh heavens no, I just want to look at it" "You do not crave war master?" "No, I just want to watch the birds" "I crave war, master" "I know"

@doro626 3 месяца назад

That's dope! love the hidden stand wire. Love these cross overs.

@Scrungly127 3 месяца назад

THIS IS SO COOL Also saw that my original idea was stolen by some weirdo bot so I’ll say it again here: Model idea: Would love to see a giant horned lizard spewing eye blood at some travelers or even a mule or something(although that may be too much).

@kjhammer120 3 месяца назад

"Statement: I crave war" "That's nice" "Query: May we go find a battle?" "No, but i do need another can opened" "Statement: I will rend it asunder!"

@arghjayem 3 месяца назад

Should’ve added a tin of dog food cleaved in half under the sword! 😂

@sweatingsmallstuffart 3 месяца назад

Love your bot, Boylei! Really dig the backstory for this guy-and using the sword as the main connection point for the base is inspired! Keep up the amazing work, as always.

@Jute511 3 месяца назад

Damn, I thought the 'unlucky' would be the dog getting skewered.

@aaronbono4688 3 месяца назад

@ashleyskapyak7103 3 месяца назад

Incredibly creative as always! Love watching your videos, love seeing your work, your worldbuilding is always a joy to listen to, excited for the next one! Colab suggestion for the future: Something with a knife-making channel, to get a Damascus blade of some variety, and incorporate it into a similar model via large sword?

@kennedyrickert1717 2 месяца назад

Please revisit this challenge! Would love to see more of the random robots!

@justsomerandomguywithoutam4499 3 месяца назад

this might be one of your best work mr boylei. Both because of the scale and the unique story. And another big reason is that you included a dog.

@paultanker5606 3 месяца назад

G'Day to you again! I think Bird Watching could turn into a very Medieval Rumble "I saw the Lesser Yellow Thrusel First!"... "No I Did!" 💥

@sirrathersplendid4825 3 месяца назад

Aww. Didn’t even give the birdwatcher a handrail?!? And the poor little mutt, confined to 1 square foot of metal grating with all that lovely grass to run in?

@reddogterrain 3 месяца назад

So far this is my favorite of the Bot Bash. Well done.

@WillZuidema 3 месяца назад

what would have been neat is weathering on the sword in the lines of grass, leaves sticks etc to show the guy has the robot making paths for him...

@nickrogers3111 2 месяца назад

I like to see you struggle with the color choices, I feel like I do that all the time. wish I knew more about color theory. Btw I really liked the yellow brown color for the shoulder pads and armor plates that you had originally.

@cyberra0180 3 месяца назад

The head reminds me of a personality core from Portal. The arms being over the head makes me think of one of the bots from the Portal 2 co-op mode 😅 Poor bot XD If bots can get bored, he's probably bored out of his processor

Pure Magic... Love the Shadow Underneath the Sword and Bot.

@ClayMann 3 месяца назад

I really love it. I'd buy that as a kit if it were one. I can't help but want the robot eye part to be facing down as if the robot is either sad or depressed its not raging into battle and instead just servicing as a ladder for man and his dog. I think I'd want a bird or two on the robot just hanging out to sell the story more and maybe some bird shit runs where the birds like to perch a lot heh

@terradyal6035 3 месяца назад

What an awesome interpretation of the scope! Nice job!!! I want to buy it just for the memory of the story.

I’m liking these builds!! Your creativity of turning literally nothing into something amazing is a truly incredible process to watch!! 👍🏻🙂 Just wondering (and I may have asked this in a previous video) if you’ve considered doing a Universal Studios Monsters series (along the terms of the Wild Imaginary West series)?
