aleceatsfood in reply to ChrysNFeb 15, 2011. 1:40 PM
Thank you very much! It's my first patch ever! But I just found out that it wears off after a month. Am I right? Anyways Thank you so much
ChrysN (author) in reply to aleceatsfoodFeb 15, 2011. 4:11 PM
I have patches that are much older that are still around, so I don't think it wears off.
aleceatsfood in reply to ChrysNFeb 15, 2011. 5:23 PM

jen7714 says: Oct 23, 2010. 4:17 PM
Here's a sketch of mine. I'll have the colored one up soon but couldn't resist sharing this. I'm not a great artist so I hope I did the Instructables robot justice :)
(the things in his wagon are little instructables robot action figures, some muffins/cupcakes from some delicious instructables, and Scoochmaroo's cake pops)

Hisart in reply to jen7714Feb 12, 2011. 7:57 PM

Kiteman in reply to jen7714Oct 24, 2010. 11:31 AM
It's like a young Robot, in the days before he discovered the internet...
jen7714 in reply to KitemanOct 29, 2010. 11:51 AM
I can see that! Like he's setting up a lemonade stand only with instructables projects. And thanks for all the nice comments.
caitlinsdad in reply to KitemanOct 24, 2010. 11:41 AM
Yeah, but he has that smirk, collecting empty soda cans and bits of rusty metal...now how do I make them into a powder...
Goodhart in reply to caitlinsdadFeb 13, 2011. 10:01 AM

Here's my entry. I did some modifications to the robot in the last one, so I don't know if it counts. 1st entry is just pencil on paper, the second is a polyester lithography.

Goodhart in reply to ChrysNJan 12, 2011. 7:27 AM
Yes, like this only roboticly....with each "being" having to have a similar yet smaller version of the same "controller" inside each "head".

Of course, in typical Norman Rockwell style :-)

Cool! Always wondered what goes on in Robot's head.
Goodhart in reply to ChrysNJan 10, 2011. 9:03 PM
It is a poor dipiction of a robot in the head of a robot as controller, with another inside HIS head, etc etc.

Does that mean you have a Robot drawing in the works?
Goodhart in reply to ChrysNDec 9, 2010. 5:27 PM
I am thinking about it at the moment. trying to find the best way to get it "on line" without having to actually take a photograph....if I can scan it in, I will try to draw it.
lockpick in reply to GoodhartJan 3, 2011. 6:33 PM
You could take a picture and flip around if you want.
