RobotWars101

Small updates and things. The event has been pushed back a few weeks for a variety or reasons, but is very much still going ahead. For the last couple of months i have been working hard with Josh to make some really cool stuff, i have attached a render of the spinner robot so you can get a rough ide...

Hey guys, posted this on the FRA but thought i should put it here to. So this website called King Of The Web has started this online "election" thing, if you win you get to go to VidCon 2012 which is this big YouTube gathering in America. I decided to throw my hat into the ring because it ...

Fortunately they see...

Hey guys, I did sign up (somewhat hastily) yesterday, however i have decided to pull out. Really just want to get everything 100% before i commit to a event like this, after a while turning up with shoddy robots gets annoying and doesn't show my creativity at all.
