Title: Roebeast's Trash Bash
Post by: Onebigriver on 06 April 2011, 03:28:52 PM
Anyone who remembers Rick Priestley's infamous deodorant bottle grav tank will like Roebeast's Camel Crawler:

He's having a scratchbuilding competition, worth checking out:

Great work on the crawler.  I'm now interested in the contest and will try to end in an entry. Thanks for the inspiration.

I've taken prints of Roebeast's painted, and unpainted, versions, and will post on the board at the store, putting the painted image over the unpainted. All you have to do is lift the first, to see how your imagination can take you away. ;->=

I did the same with some of Pappa Midnight's creations.

REALLY inspiring, though in me, mostly burning jealousy!  lol

PS Cautionary tale: I've a version of the original deodorant flyer that a friend did in the original RT era. He's now a highly paid bureaucrat, and never builds his own as far as I know, paying others to build and paint. Don't be so successful you forget what you used to find fun.  ;)

I'm really glad that you find my stuff inspiring. I'm just sharing ideas that I've got from others with my own spin. It's one of the reasons I'm so happy to be a part of The LAF. I'm constantly inspired by the work that gets shown here.

I'm really looking forward to seeing the entries to the Trash Bash. I'm expecting to be blown away. :o
