the Inventor Posted January 12 (edited) Build for SpaceJam 2023, 12x12 vignette category, I mace a retro robot. Don't Panic! by Ids de Jong, on Flickr A nice reference which is also applicable to the build, made up by @Murdoch17: Quote 'Robot Revolution' in the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy (42nd edition): In case of a revolt by robots, please seek shelter in your nearest space port, and then exit the star system as fast as possible. If the only ships there are automated, robot piloted, or already gone, get to a robot-free shelter immediately. (preferably one without wi-fi or internet service to avoid detection!) If a shelter is not available, run fast - but preferably more quickly than your fellow survivors. If you can't run faster, just trip someone. But whatever you do, Don't Panic! Thanks for looking, C&C welcome. Edited January 12 by the Inventor Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Feuer Zug Posted January 12 Great vignette. Starting with the Technic figure is brilliant. The scale works well for the 12x12 format. Great wall mounted computer screen face. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Murdoch17 Posted January 12 (edited) I'm glad you like the Hitchhikers Guide* nonsense I wrote on your Flickr! I was wondering if you had even seen it, but I guess you have. It's a great MOC too! *The guide entry I wrote there doesn't actually exist in the books. I just made it up on the spot!

the Inventor Posted January 12 (edited) Thanks all. @Murdoch17 Haha, yeah I liked it and it fits the build, I'll just edit my post a bit, have to reread the book sometimes as that was a long time ago. Edited January 12 by the Inventor Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
