AND THE DEAD SHALL RISE !

First off today I have some sad news, for the first time in 10 years my company will not be going to Salute. This has nothing to do with the event as we were allocated the relevant space we needed, but due to the very trying year we've been through, the construction of our new facilities is still not finished and added complications has delayed the completion. Hopefully the following year we will be back but that depends on being able to get the relevant space if available.
Now to something more interesting, Phil is running Deadcember over on his blog dizbustersge and I'm going to use this to create some undead miniatures. I have already started 3 models, two sets of Zombies and victim, and an enraged spirit. The Zombie idea came from Andy (Da Gobbo) and will be based from this idea

The enraged spirit will be a ghost, now I'd like to do two more undead pieces, what would you guys like to see ? It can be anything to do with undead, drop your ideas in the comments.
Very short post today, next week will hopefully have some work on the undead to show, so until next time have fun !
Cheers Dave

MECHANOVEMBER

This  months painting challenge on azazelx blog was to paint something mechanical, and I thought it would be a great idea to use this challenge to add some robots to our range.
DocBot
This one has a respirator appendage, a hypodermic syringe, a laser scalpel, and a clamp/ spreader hand. I thought this would be a versatile set of arms

STAN
Short for Standard Technical Automaton persoN this is a general purpose robot that could be used for multiple jobs. ( i know the last word is a bit of a cheat ! LOL)

Maintenance Droid
A small multi purpose use droid for possibly vent shafts or service tunnels

Mobile Food Dispensing Droid
Free roaming droid that you could stop and buy food or beverages from.

Pleasure Droid
If all industry was mechanised, maybe this would be the robot equivalent of the oldest provision

And here's a group shot to make it easier for Azazel, these models won't be released until January, but are available to you all now, the maintenance droid is £3, Stan and pleasure droid will be £4 each, Doc Bot is £5 and food droid will be £6, if you want any on pre release just email me what you want.

That's all for this post so until next time have fun !
Cheers Dave 

EAT RECYCLED FOOD !

As I continue on with the robots this month, I have now got enough of the 5 th robot done to show. This will be a vending droid, it's similar to the one in Judge Dredd the movie (the 1 st one with Stallone) but has enough variance that I shouldn't infringe on copyright.

As you can see robodoc is progressing well, and just working on the arms and sockets to finish.

Stan currently needs a hand to finish him off

Pleasurebot (or Olive for Frank) needs a replacement hand and a lower leg to finish.

The maintenance droid was pretty much finished other than some tidying, so haven't taken any more pics since then, hopefully the next time I post on these will be in paint.
So until next time have fun !
Cheers Dave

THE THREE LAWS OF ROBOTICS

This months challenge on Azazael's blog is to paint something mechanical, this can include vehicles dreadnoughts even power armour, now I know I have lot's of unfinished pieces that would count in this, I just can't find them at the moment, so instead I have decided to use it to give me the push I need to get on with some new models for the business.
I'm currently working on 5 different models, the first is a robot doctor, I knew I wanted to make one of these ever since I did the medical scanner, it will have four arms with multiple attachments including laser scalpel, injector, and anaesthetist mask. The small screen on the top is for a human face to be displayed, to be reassuring, and the large screen is for deaf people, so the doc can display in words what he's saying. The bottom section is so it can raise it's height and angle over the patient when performing surgery.

next up is a little maintenance droid , designed to be able to fit through ventilation shafts to repair and remove blockages or maybe he's a Gardner !

Next up is STAN which is a standard service bot, for multi purpose roles.

Last one today is the pleasure Bot, now as some of you may know I don't do overly sexualised female models as a rule, but as this is a robot I've made an exception. The model will be mostly robot with living tissue that is grown in vats in certain places.

You'll have to wait to see what I'm doing for the fifth one !
That's it for this post so until next time have fun !
Cheers Dave
