Soundbot Retro Front. To keep the theme of junk parts I fogged up the front glass in front of the radio dial to show that it hasn't even been cleaned in a while.
Every robot needs a glowing eye :)
The top, bottom, and mid plates are one piece and textured to look like semi-gloss cheap metal. I wanted to add a bit of shininess to a mostly dull model.
I went with wheel feet so it could move quickly but still walk up and down stairs if necessary.
The legs all have gold joints for movement. I researched a bit of robotics and artificial limbs to figure out a good look. However I'm still a simplistic person so I went for the minimum in terms of what is necessary for leg movement.
The only visible speakers are on the side of the "pelvis". I pretty much thought about the latest phones and how they now have all internal sound and brought that into SoundBot Future.
A simple chrome ball for the mid-section so the robot can bend down from the torso and legs.

SoundBot

Hello everyone! This is an old design I made a while ago and then decide to go back and update some of the features. Both models seen here are SoundBots; however one is SoundBot Retro and SoundBot Future.
SoundBot Retro was the first one created trying to think of an old robot put together with scrap pieces found in an average metal shop so the body and head are made from numerous small plates. SoundBot Future was definitely a challenge because I wanted unifying elements between both SoundBots but still making SoundBot Future more advanced and streamlined. Plus I thought that a robot playing music from the future didn’t really need many visibly speakers but had to light a room so I put rainbow lights just to get the party started!
P.S.: Forgive the lack of proper mech aspects, I’m not much of one and the legs just gave me the hardest time so they may look a bit unrealistic. Then again, the arms float using boosters.
