That’s really kind of you. I think I was just suffering from imposter syndrome during the build. Lots of great makers in the collaboration, and I just wanted to live up to them .
@@eye_made_this Oh i know: i'm going through the playlist right now! It's awesome seeing how many different approaches and tecniques you all brought to the table!
I really like this guy, AND you gave him articulation. Honestly gives me action figure vibes and I could totally see a line up of other mechs with different weapons, shapes, and colors. Like a high quality collectible action figure or gundam.
Aww thank you, much appreciated. Hope you like my stuff, it’s a bit eclectic. I have a playlist also of music videos I have made and directed too if you are interested :)
24:30 the final build looks like it belongs to the Tau from the 40k universe! Awesome colour scheme and the shoe polish weathering was an interesting addition, will be trialing this myself!
I absolutely love this bot boy. The sculpt is so fun, so chunky. The shoe polish weathering is unique for sure and I do think it adds to the overall appearance. Good job
Honestly this has been my favorite on the entire playlist so far. A lot of them seem thin, fragile, and unrealistic. But yours has the weight and chunkiness I'd expect from a mech. I also love your unique white/orange color scheme. So many people went for dark, grey, muddy bots so it was really refreshing to see something on the other end of the spectrum. Fantastic job!
What a fabulous bot! With the white and orange colour scheme and (shoe polish!) weathering it looks a bit like Johnny 5 reborn in the District 9 universe. Charming, weighty, believable.
I think I've watched almost all of the bot bash videos and your creation is my favorite so far. You also followed the die rolls pretty well, which not all people seem to do. Even though you aren't sure about the color scheme, I like the white and red combo. I gives it that cassette futurism kinda wibe, as you said yourself.
People who think they're not good painters need to stick together! Having said that; don't use paint for metal edges showing through and just use the side of a pencil tip and colour away. Works amazing and helped me not dread painting so much.
Looking at his design, you've got a bot that is not designed to move from place to place quickly. If he had two hands, I would put him into a flexible factory role where he's meant to sit at a station and build things for months at a time. Maybe that's what he was designed for, but those hooks on his slow-moving body say that someone meant for him to go somewhere and occasionally pull things towards him. I imagine him working quietly on the side of some low-traffic cargo dock, ready to pull ships into their berth if needed. 98% of his CPU time has been handed over to a self-coded database keeping track of the lives of the local sea-birds. He has designations for each of them and can accurately identify non-distinctive members of the flock at 45 meters, a whole 3 meters beyond where his model is advertised as having fine-grained detail discernment in their optical system. The only being who has any idea of his hidden depths is the local cleaning drone, who wipes off the occasional bird dropping and reports the ongoing chassis damage the dockbot receives from local ne'er-do-wells. The dockbot occasionally attempts to push "database updates" to the little drone, who not only isn't running the database, but lacks the extra processing power to do its job while running the dockbots baroque coding. Nevertheless, the drone's builtin security software does a quick dissection of the rogue software update and the drone dutifully updates its own overall environmental model with the comings and goings of the birds.
Holy crap, you have put more thought into this bot than I have. I know who I’m going to when I need some lore for my creations haha. Thanks dude , loved this!
I think this is an absolutely fantastic bot build! The colors are amazing and the different sizes for the arms and legs really make it eye catching from every angle! Great work and thanks for the amazing video!
This is awesome man I know we’re all our own worst critics, god knows I never think any my stuff is good even when they win contests. Just know this is amazing work man and the fact it’s 99% hand sculpted is amazing to me.
G-Day mate, Awesome build, paints I use only a few brands, there is a shit load, here what I use Ammo Mig, Vallejo, Speed Paint from Army painter and finally Citadel paint, washes, technical, Dry brush paints, and Contrast paints, textures. Also, I use Windsor and Newton oil paints. And also A.K. Interactive, paints, weathering oil. I have been modelling, since I was ten years old, now in my 60's now, you get to own, just lots of paint, tubs and tubs, but I have learned over the years, if you use the primary colours, you can't go wrong. Your painting is up to you, Dig, as its what you do is the end game, painting takes time, enjoy it and it will come to you, don't bash yourself up with it, Awesome work, and a great Craftsman you are. Cheers From DownUnder Bob.
This is incredible!!! Your techniques are very entertaining to watch regardless if they went how you hoped. The colour scheme is perfect btw! Unashamedly my favourite of the collab :) keep up the great work 🧡🤍🤖
Some decals could easily give it more character and life. Also a base goes a long way to telling a story. It's the main difference between a toy and a miniature imo
Love this. People forgot how to carve and sculpt. Poorhammer peep were complaining about figure pricing and needed 3d printers, when they could just make their own out of anything including clay or wood. Auto companies were doing this for prototypes for 70 years.......
Alright? It's bloody phenomenal mate. I'm utterly useless at sculpting so to my eyes it's brilliant. Edit: Oh, I love the orange and white, you might not rate your painting skills but again, it looks great to me.
What an awesome looking Bot! Incredibly sculpted, I love all the battle damage, and genius use of Prince Adam's shoulders. Pour one out for the action figures that made the ultimate sacrifice for this guy!🙌
The floating head of a Englishman insisted that I watch this video and I'm glad I did. Fun build, the white and orange remind me of My 40k Tau. I subbed and can't wait to see more of your videos!
I think you're a little hard on yourself. It looks stunning! You are such a talented sculpter and have an awesome imagination. As for the colors you chose, I feel they suit the ascetic really well.
Thanks, I tired my best to properly implement each specific attribute, but keep it feel as if it was all part of the same thing... if that makes sense hah
Amazing work. Love it. Just in the process of nicking some joints from Modulok for something myself. Glad to see it worked so well. Big respect for an awesome sculpt.
good paints? Game Color Vallejo, scale 75. Duncan's 2 Thin Coats. i dont know what is available locally for you at a good price. .. avoid Testors. almost any modeling paint should help a lot
Fantastic build, Ollie! The way you combined your sculpting with kitbashing is nothing short of inspired, and I get such a kick out of how massive and chunky your bot is! It's been an absolute joy watching you and your work grow and reach a wider audience, and I'm glad you're on the mend after being sick!
Love your construction, especially the articulation points! Impressive. The paint job finished it perfectly. Nothing wrong with it at all. It's beautiful.
Wow! Love it! A bunch of useful tricks learnt here, also! One from me... Next time you use one of those spring shooters, crack it open first (and take a ref pic), and over-extend the spring before putting it back together. You can make it shoot stronger than "children safety compromise"-mode.
We are all our own worst critic aren't we? That is flipping awesome looking! lovely design and I think the colours are spot on.. You don't know how to paint? Could have fooled me! Boot Polish? Genius!
You're being overly critical about this, I think it's lovely. The colors are great(orange is my favorite) and it's style is nostalgic and reminds me of the PS2 Ratchet & Clank games.
I appreciate that, I think Imposter Syndrome was in high supply while making it. I’ve warmed to him a lot since making it , haha. Thank you for the kind words :)
Amazing sculpting, thanks for taking part!
Any time my friend!
Thanks for listing so many great builders Bill!
When you guys do this again, can you invite me, I have multiple videos in the works and am currently filming another and this is right up my alley.
Why do most of the people who took part in this challenge look like relatives of Bill?
@@the98themperoroftheholybri33do I look like bill?
It looks fucking great. Do not be unhappy with that. One of the best of the Big Bot Bash for sure. My top 3.
Aww thank you. Yeah there were some awesome bots made. I don’t think I could pick a favourite hah
Can’t get my head around how you can make something so mechanical with mainly sculpey. So good. 🤯
Thanks. Just add lots of lines , circular dots and rectangles/squares hah
Just awesome, and for sure one of the best Bots in this series
Wow thank you!
I know not why aren't you sold on the bot; but i 100% am! It looks so cool, and it's weathered to perfection!
That’s really kind of you. I think I was just suffering from imposter syndrome during the build. Lots of great makers in the collaboration, and I just wanted to live up to them .

Why thank you. I think Robo Force is more my kind of speed haha.
My favorite bot of the bash! So happy you participated, now I have a new creator to binge.
Aww thank you, much appreciated. Hope you like my stuff, it’s a bit eclectic. I have a playlist also of music videos I have made and directed too if you are interested :)
I think he's a splendid bot! The weathering and color scheme makes him look like an industrial machine that's seen better days.
Thank you, yeah I guess he does :)
Your sculpting skills are very impressive! Great bot!
Thanks dude, your bot is awesome too!
24:30 the final build looks like it belongs to the Tau from the 40k universe! Awesome colour scheme and the shoe polish weathering was an interesting addition, will be trialing this myself!
Thanks for watching . Yeah give it a try!
You are hard on yourself... and needlessly. I absolutely LOVE your bot.
Thank you for the kind words!
I absolutely love this bot boy. The sculpt is so fun, so chunky. The shoe polish weathering is unique for sure and I do think it adds to the overall appearance. Good job

Thank you so much . Glad you like him :)
Brilliant
Many thanks!
In a playlist of awesome robots this one might be my favourite. Please do more sci-fi, you've got a great style
Wow, high praise. My latest music video was Sci-fi horror and the making of documentary is coming out soon :)
WOW!! awesome! very well done
Thanks!

Thanks for the kind words. The rolls were open to interpretation, but I just leaned in on them and took them at face value hah.
If this is "just alright" for you I guess I better stick around and see what kind of amazing stuff you're making, because I LOVE THIS BOT!
Uh-oh, set myself up for future failure hah . Glad you liked the robot dude!
I love it. The shoe polish was an interesting way to approach the weathering.
Thanks for watching, the shoe polish worked well enough for me hah!
People who think they're not good painters need to stick together! Having said that; don't use paint for metal edges showing through and just use the side of a pencil tip and colour away. Works amazing and helped me not dread painting so much.
That’s a great tip, will give that a go for sure. Thanks for watching !
This is awesome! And all sculpted makes it super extra good!!
Thanks dude!
Awesome bot build. I really like the way the paint turned out
Thank you , glad you liked it :)
it's so gooood! so impressive!
Thank you so much!!
The oil coming out of the bullet holes, such a nice touch. I love this build!!!
Thanks :) loved your video too. Need to re watch it tomorrow alongside all the others!
This is fantastic work!
Thank you :)
Looks great!

@@photogfrank2146 thanks. It’s grown on me hah!

Thanks :)
Crazy good Dude...Love it Like Always...GW, Vallejo or Armypainter really good Paints...U know them right?!
Thank you. I’ll check them out :)
I like the big bot bash challenge, its shown me a lot of really good creators I didn't know about, keep up the great work
Likewise, glad you have enjoyed it!
Some decals could easily give it more character and life. Also a base goes a long way to telling a story. It's the main difference between a toy and a miniature imo
That’s fair, a base would have been fun. Sadly, I just didn’t have the time. I was going more for a toy look tbh, with the articulation etc :)
Love this. People forgot how to carve and sculpt. Poorhammer peep were complaining about figure pricing and needed 3d printers, when they could just make their own out of anything including clay or wood. Auto companies were doing this for prototypes for 70 years.......
@@daleb5967 thanks for watching. I have a 3D printer etc, but for me nothing tops sculpting with your hands!

Wow, thank you !
Alright? It's bloody phenomenal mate. I'm utterly useless at sculpting so to my eyes it's brilliant.

Looks amazing
Thank you !
I would 100% buy one of these!
Interesting 🤔 thanks for watching !
This is rad!
Thanks dude !
❤ looks really good
Thanks!
Best of all the videos
Wow, high praise!
I watched the whole thing, and I still don't understand how you made that. Incredible dude
Cheers Ry, appreciate you!
What an awesome looking Bot! Incredibly sculpted, I love all the battle damage, and genius use of Prince Adam's shoulders. Pour one out for the action figures that made the ultimate sacrifice for this guy!🙌
Cheers Scotty. Modulocks an arsehole anyway, he deserved it!
Great sculpt. Its awesome.👍 however, with painting I think you need an intervention.
That’s fair, I said as much myself!
This is class my man! Can't believe you did all that out of sculpy. Will be subscribing for more
Thanks man, welcome aboard the good ship Eye Made This!
The floating head of a Englishman insisted that I watch this video and I'm glad I did. Fun build, the white and orange remind me of My 40k Tau. I subbed and can't wait to see more of your videos!

Thank you for the kind words :)
I love your technique of adding panel lines and details via a layer of Sculpey. Nice job with your bot, mate!
Thanks for watching dude!
Looks really good
Thank you!
It looks fantastic. I love the style and colour.
@@brettarmistead9410 thank you :)
That is a whole lot more than ok!

Wow, thanks!
I think this looks bad ass. I like the lunar orange on white color.
Thank you, I’m warming to it hah!
Just awesome mate fantastic channel
Thank you, means a lot!
Super cool and really enjoyed witnessing the creative process. The design is very good. Don’t be so modest.
Thank you so much, I appreciate that :)
15:47 amazing arm sculpt
@@nukeomatic thanks dude!
Awesome sculpt dude, you earned a sub!
For paint recommendations I can say go to Vallejo, AK interactive, mig and Duncan Rhodes two thin coats
Thank you my guy, a lot of people have recommended AK. Will give them a go!
This is quite the chunky boy! I love it. Great work sir.
Thanks dude :)
It looks fantastic. I really like that the mismatched arms, stumpy stand out and the different colour arms.
Thanks, I tired my best to properly implement each specific attribute, but keep it feel as if it was all part of the same thing... if that makes sense hah
I subbed to all of these channels. Thanks.
Bill picked some crafters to be involved with this project, thats for sure!
Your bot is Amazing. I want one. brilliant build.
Thanks so much!
Amazing work. Love it. Just in the process of nicking some joints from Modulok for something myself. Glad to see it worked so well.

Wow! Love it! A bunch of useful tricks learnt here, also! One from me... Next time you use one of those spring shooters, crack it open first (and take a ref pic), and over-extend the spring before putting it back together. You can make it shoot stronger than "children safety compromise"-mode.
That’s an awesome trick, thanks. If a small child hasn’t ever taken a small missile to the eye can they say they have even lived?
