Space Robots from Outer Space

[Fungi]

I did a test fit of the robot on the intergalactic space jet rocket speeder bike I'm building. It still needs an engine, LED lights, more wires and pipes. A little paint and weathering. It's getting there.

Wow! I was wondering why only half a tire then I figured it out. They are hoses feeding a rocket nozzle and they are geared to rotate providing multi-vector thrust for the rider. Very clever.
Space Robots are awesome! Keep it up!

Yep, I wanted to try and keep some roundness and I think it works. I can't wait to animate this in space! thanks!

Get your jets a runnin'
Get out on the space way!
Lookin' for adventure,
An' whatever comes our way!

Like a true machine's child,
we were made, made to be wild,
We can fly so high, we're never goin' to die!

um, I didn't think I mentioned in here that I'm doing that song now...

More Intergalactic Space Jet Rocket Bike Speeder progress. The space bike isn't really finished, but I couldn't wait to do a little testing. Work bench photo and a screen cap of a little teaser for the new video I'm working on. I also started working on the second space speeder thingy. Keep it spacey.

 

[Littlemarten]

I want one … probably faster than my Lightning Cycles™ P-38 …

 

[Fungi]

Here's a little video I made of the build. Let me know what you think.

Haha, really looks like he has the chill biker vibe!
'Stellar ride'!

Here's an update on the space robots speeder bikes.

 

[Fungi]

Here's a little progress report on the Space Speeder build. It's about 1/10th scale. Finally nearing completion. Yippy!

 

[BarleyBop]

Nicely done! It looks like something you'd wanna take for a spin!

 

[Fungi]

Here's Mike Moonbeam, Space Robot Band lead guitar player, showing off his new more easily adjustable arms. interchangeable hands, and his new head rotation addition.

 

[BarleyBop]

Haha, there is a town in North Ontario, called 'Moonbeam'.
They have a flying saucer in the middle of town.

 

[Fungi]

Here's Mike Moonbeam testing out his new interchangeable hands. The speeder is nearing completion.

I keep thinking SRFOS couldn't get any better but then I turn around and you've added more gems to your creation. The speeder is very cool. Love following your thread.
Beautiful work and so much meticulous detailing.
Just a lot of fun!

I started to work on the weathering a bit more. I also added some led lights to the left power pod, just need to repeat on the right side. I may add some letters and numbers, maybe some caution stripes. This speeder still needs a name.

 

[trekriffic]

Regarding a name for the speeder, how about naming it after the founder and owner of Spacely Space Sprockets, Cosmo Spacely. This was the company George Jetson worked for in the 1960's cartoon "The Jetsons". The company was even involved in robotics!

So may I suggest … The Spacely Speeder!

Just a thought. You could also just call it Cosmo.

 

[Fungi]

I like your idea, but I ended up using Total Eclipse for the name. Here is a video of the completed speeder.

 

[Fungi]

I wanted to power up the robots when photographed on the turntable. Because I didn't want to drill holes, I decided to hide the power source in plain sight. I made a portable power pack.

 

[Fungi]

Took these pics.

 

[trekriffic]

Oompapa, oompapa, oompapa, wow, wow… Holy cow!
That looks geat. Love the battery pack too!
You shoul've called it the Cosmo but I still like it…

I made a little video of the portable power pack build.

Here's the latest video using my models. Happy Halloween!

latest video

Nice! That first track sets the mood... spooky
I feel the animation/movement within environments getting better!
