I've been bouncing around back and forth on a number of things the last few weeks and one of the things I had started in earnest a while back and recently came back to was a robot gang/crew/force.
Judge Dredd currently has rules for renegade robots as a playable action and the dialogue on the This Is Not A Test Facebook page would also indicate that an all robot band may be in the works.
So far I've got my first six retro sci-fi robots done. Three were previously finished, one was a re-basing job late last night and two got painted yesterday during the baseball game.
First up Junk-Bot had previously been based on a lipped base and I just wanted to put him on an unlipped textured base with some light rubble.
Next up is Mr Doc-Bot. Mr Doc-Bot is another Fallout inspired pseudo Mr Handy this time re-imagined as a medical robot. I had always intended to do a medical robot but the timing is ironic because about 5 hours after I finished painting him I got the model that will probably end up replacing him. So Mr Doc-Bot may or may not ever make it to the gaming table.
Last but not least is the first figure I've gotten painted from the Robot Townies line by Armorcast. Robot Townies is a line that is 90% robots and characters inspired by Futurama. I expect to get all of the Robot Townies line painted before year end (I think Santa-Bot might be next).
That's the current state of things. I expect more robots this week and then I might detour back to Frostgrave for a bit.
