Number Johnny 5, where are you going?

11 01 2012

When I think of robots, I think of Number 5 aka “Johnny” from the 80′s movie Short Circuit (saw it for my birthday) AND I think of the robot from Buck Rodgers who began every sentence with “beedeebeedeebeedee”.

Robots are just fun. There is no right or wrong to drawing a robot. You’ve got high-tech, futuristic robots, and you’ve got clunky, metal, made-from-scrap parts robots. These are sort of in-between. I made this FHE board for the Hunter Family. The square bodies of the robots are the peices that rotate around the board. Some of the titles are hard to read because it wasn’t easy to paint ‘stencil-looking’ letters that small.

Dude that is so cool! The kind of thing I would stare at for hours as a kid. So intricate. Reminds me of a video I saw…
