Man oh man, this is amazing! I love it! All I'm missing is his cigar.
I hope to see more of your sculptures in the future, you got yourself a new follower!

Silverbullit responds:
Wow and thank you for those kind words b0em!
It is great to know I dare to post more future work, and promise I will do my very best not to dissappoint. :)
You did it man. You did it. Take your rest, and I hope you planned to make more. Congrats on getting Frontpage!
Can't believe you made your own Bender!
Silverbullit responds:
Hi there mate,
You know your feedback is greatly appreciated!
I am surprised that so many has visited Bender, seems over 300 skilled artists of our fellow forumfriends has checked Bender out. *dropping my jaw to the floor*
And so many real artists have given Bender thumbs up and that really means a lot to me - thanks EVERYBODY for yoru kind support!
Frontpage? I am to new to know exactly, but I am very curious where do I find this?
Yes it is very nice to have my own Bender, wish I could do one for all friends that appreciate them...
In the robomance thread where u and I discussed Bender I upped some closeups of him,
do you suppose our mates here would like to see them pics?
If so, can I just make them public in the gallery?
Thanks again for your immediate support TaraGraphics.
I really don't not know if I would have posted the entire Bender outside the Robomance challenge otherwise.
Three little details I don't like about it:
1. Hands are wrong.
2. Chest cavity handle should be metallic in color, not red.
3. The feet are too thin.
If you corrected those, I would tell you to shut up and take my money!
Silverbullit responds:
Hi mate,
Yes I agree with you 110% bonkurei! I am so surprised how much kind words all of our friends here shared. I think can only happen at newgrounds!
I can response to all 3 points that I btw totally agree with, so it is in no way attempt to dont take responsibility for all 3 of your well made observations bonkurei!
1. right on, actually I have unfinished moving mechanisms for the hands and arms. Problem was these round balls (from Ikea) that makes his hands right now. They were advertised as steel balls but when I tried to weld on them they proved to be some funky alloy and my mechanisms literally melted instead. (Was going to use the back half of the iron balls for hand and a flat round plate for palms close to what Bender has. I wanted to make him even smoother in transition to irl.)
2. Yes, the handle was part of a mechanism that would sorta suck the door inside and roll it inside so it kinda would vanish. Everything was setup but the special hinges I made melted, they were also some weird alloy that nothing happened on until they just WOSH melts. And the red button was from an emergency shut of contraption that I remade to "start" the door motion. My thought was to send the button in for chroming after I got it working.)
3. You have a point, but this is much worsen in the picture because my cellphone distorts the picture a lot. Even the legs looks thinner than it looks if you stand here looking irl at him. And the camera does not catch the shoe sole very good. His soles are actually quite thick and made to look like tires (even have some good year markings on and an aggresive sole pattern like on quad bikes or something. I should probably try to take a better picture of his shoes if I can manage to borrow a decent camera.
I really really appreciate your curage to share such constructive criticism bonkurei.
And I simply have to agree 100 percent, I do however wish I could show you his shoes for real and learn if you still would feel the same about them, would be incredible interesting!
Thanks for your support mate :)
You're a god.
Silverbullit responds:
Wow, not many get to hear this one! :) You are way way to kind mate, but thanks a bazillion times for this one, I live a long time on that comment kiskaman! :)
Beautiful work his ass is so shiny lol, the only things he's missing is a cigar ands bottle of booze and it would be awesome if he was giving the finger
Silverbullit responds:
Indeed! If you check the updated version Bender has fingers now (Also a magnetic cigar that somebody unfortunately pinched at an art exhibition) And some days he actually greeted visitors with the finger and a rubberband attached 3-beers ;)
(Great minds think alike)
Thanks for the feedback mate!
