#355 1950's SkyNet

In the atomic age your automatons will work for you! They will know how to help you all on their own using the new patented SkyNet! Satisfaction guaranteed! Scientists agree that this breakthrough is foolproof and your automaton will be 100% obedient to you!

I dig 1950s and early 1960s graphics styles, I can envision things in my head but rarely get them out how I like. This is pretty dang close. I did a sketch of the robot, used GIMP to paint it, added some color blocks and then Inkscape to do the text.

#344 Atari 2600 Robot

Hopefully Blogger doesn't eat this one.

I loved my Atari (actually a 'Sears Telegames') and had it up until last year when I shipped it to my brother. Plus Colecovision. Man we'd waste hours upon hours on glorious blocky video game action. So primitive now but games of today weren't even a dream then.
Activison style game box done from scratch.

#342 LITTLE MISS ROBOT

Since I did MR. ROBOT some asked where LITTLE MISS ROBOT was. So here is LITTLE MISS ROBOT.

The 'LITTLE MISS' lineup was near the end of my elementary school years so I didn't really remember them so much as the MR. MEN series.

#340 MR. ROBOT

In honor of what would be Roger Hargreaves' 76th birthday and the 40th anniversary year of MR. MEN books I present MR. ROBOT!

I remember these books from 1975 when I was in kindergarten, we had activity sheets to color in the various MR. MEN, LITTLE MISS didn't come along until a bit later.

First attempt at doing some diagrams/exploded views ala The Daily Robot using tech diagrams.

#264 The Sabertooth Robot

Today's robot is an homage to Mike Russell's Sabertooth Vampire character based on a twitter sketch request.
Mike does Culturpulp features (with the awesome Mr. Do and Mr. Don't) in the Oregonian as well as movie reviews and other ventures. He's @culturpulp on twitter
