A green beetle robot, over a foot long, that fades to a deep magenta on the underside. It has 6 legs and long metallic arms with claws on the end.

A close up of the beetle bots face. It has 9 turquoise eyes and a silver grate where its mouth would be. On top of its head is a massive horn that turns from a deep brown red to white up the top.

The beetle bots shell opens to show a large flatbed to store cargo and it's sensitive electrical parts

I uploaded this on Instagram for Bill Making Stuff's #bigbotbash3 and felt it got very little attention, so thought I would share my 6 week long #scratchbuild with Bluesky too. I took the "big" part of #bigbotbash very literally and this model came in at over a foot long.

It is already Big Bot Bash 3. I highly recommend to go to the playlist and watch some of these videos.

Creators big and small making bots with junk and bits. I enjoyed watching BBB2 and there were enough videos for weeks to watch. #bigbotbash3

photo of a scratch built robot. It's made from pens, beads, plastic spoons, plastic tubes, and dozens of other random misc. objects. It's painted off-white and red. It has a red cross painted on the left size. It has four legs. It's main feature is the three human heads on mechanical tenticles coming out of the front. It's painted grungy and dirty as though it's been through a lot of action.
