Yes. LDD i know you're just trying to be funny, but you're only gonna attract the MODs attention with crap like that. Please stop. It's too far.

Now I say we hold a emergency disciplinary hearing regarding the behavior of junior member LDD. He has clearly violated rule 42 of page 42 of the rule book subsection F paragraph 7 of the League rule book and it is nigh time to deal with this emergency, and since we are having such a meeting, it is also time to put the kettle on!

Eyelids to be riveted shut with bio-degradable rivets that will let him open his eyes an in a few weeks, and fingers encased in a solid block of acrylic for a similar period?

Kettle's on
Gotta vote for that sort of thing, and very well, we will all need something with oomph to it. Earl Grey or Oolong? Oh and the rulebook also recommends being beaten with herrings, North Atlantic variety

All out of Oolong at the moment but plenty of Earl Grey. Also plenty of English Breakfast and Assam, or some Darjeeling for those wanted a lighter taste.
And yes, you're quite right, herring smacking is probably the order of the day. Slightly grumpy and may have been a little harsh with that sentence for a first offence.
No worries, but the casing of hands in acrylic blocks does mean he will need an assistant for eating/washing/dressing, and bathroom duties. Now to find the large Atlantic Herring, fresh off the boat and about say around 40cm.

well...if all else fails...we could hang you by your ears on the washingline with cloth pegs...it´s what my mum did with our teddies...yeah she was a mean woman...^^
tho i think the woodcutting with a hering has a nice educational touch... we should keep that on the hind brain for future needs...
the medic still seems to create a sort of "want-not" field around him as he partly tends to fall apart... i glued several parts on and on again... the non sawblade hand is now a totally new one... and tomorrow i will hopefully show you howthis turned out... looks to me like a tinopener...
also the head now will undergo major transformations... it fell off, got glued lopsided looked ugly and got ripped off again... now i need to make a new one... any suggestions for design?
well anyways... i hope i can provide some new updates tomorrow...it is desperatly needed to get that thread back on the right track^^
Maybe a surgeon's mask?
or if he's fixing machines, a welder's mask?

why didn´t i think of a facemask myself? good idea right there... and it helps me to not model a stupid smiling mouth on the head!
and now that i reread your comment...wleders mask is even better... would hide the whole face and only have the slit for the eyes... good call on that...
like so:
and it would give me the oportunity to add ribvets to the head as well... would give him a bit of a frank n. stein look^^
Maybe have it on a hinge so that it can flip up and down. Tha way you can have the silly grin on his face only when you feel like it......

The Medics new head is looking very smart Vick. While at work on Saturday night I had a coffee and eyed up the coffee stirrers …. But I have no plans for a track at the moment, but I know where to get them if I need them lol. Also on Saturday we were in Mother Care looking at the toys and I came across a great toy for all the budding children of League members, or possibly as inspiration for Vick
He looks just like the awesome robots that you are making; I think that you may have surveillance equipment in your house. Someone is stealing your ideas!!

lol...that can work both ways... i think this one here is perfect for a commander... of course with a powerweapon and a nice handheld flamer^^ and i even have the legs already^^
the thing to make treads by yourself...it isn´t really that difficvult... the trick is to have a thin sheat/strip of styrene/PC that serves as a kind of transport belt for the then added pieces of cut to size stirrers... it is so easy that even i could do it^^ from the current build the tracks are the most sturdy^^
Automatically Appended Next Post: oh...by the way... at dave... i made this mask from the packaging of the rods you sent me... i use that stuff too as it is fully styrene and accept glue very well...!!!

Medich turned out nice, but for some reason I'm thinking about a welding torch on a servo-arm as a great addition to his tools... You know, welding mask cries for it
Oh, about the welding mask... I just found this on the internet:
Sweet work Vik! Medic looks ready for that paint shop visit.
