Na-na na-na na-na na-na Artbot!
It’s no great surprise that we’re fans of a very popular Danish brick building product here at Freejam. It’s also no surprise that we’re fans of superheroes too. And so when two of our favourite things recently collided on the big-screen, we thought it was only right that we celebrated this with an artbot contest.
Before we kick off the competition, we must give a big shout-out to both Rabbid_Fox and Foxer360 for their butt-kicking robots that we used in the header image.
So, let’s not dilly-dally anymore; let’s get straight down to business - here’s this week’s competition brief:
The Brief:
For this Artbot competition, the brief is very straightforward; we want to see your Robots based on fictional superheroes; it doesn’t matter if they’re from the DC or Marvel universes, Japanese Manga, a well-thumbed copy of 2000AD or your own imagination we want to see them! Not a fan of Superheroes; then upload a Supervillain instead.
Remember, you’re building a robot that must fit into one of the following five categories:
- Comic book superheroes or their vehicles
- Comic book supervillains or their vehicles
- Superheroes or their vehicles based on your original idea
- Supervillains or their vehicles based on your original idea
- All 2D artbots
Remember to include the term ‘DB11’ at the start of your Robot’s title when uploading it to the CRF. The Robot description must include the category number eg: Cat 1, Cat 2 etc. Failure to include ‘DB11’ in the title and the category number in the description will result in your Robot being excluded from the competition.
The Prizes:
Five winners will be chosen; each will receive either one week of premium membership or 25 protonium crates which will be awarded if the winner has lifetime premium. In addition to this, an overall winner’s robot will become a ‘Featured Robot’ in the CRF (Community Robot Factory).
