Mom Posted November 22, 2013 Report Share Posted November 22, 2013 1st Place: #3 This is one of the most menacing and sleek looking quadrupeds I've ever seen throughout the series. The sentimental part of me says it reminds me strongly of Catastrophe and Cerberus from the AC2 arena-- both very ominous looking quads in their own right. To me this bot takes aspects of those two memorable arena ACs and then some. The weapon choice is very excellent and fits the intimidating look to perfection, and while red/black color schemes are the most cliche and boring paint schemes one could ever create in the ac world, this bot finds the right amount of balance with darker reds and bright red trim to make it an extremely pleasing schematic to look at. Overall it's a very well-putogether as a whole and is the most convincing bot of the group. 2nd Place: #9 This bot has a very satisfying, cool and collective look to it. The paint job is among my favorites of the lot, while the overall balance jives extremely well, finding just the right amount of analogous colors to create a very stable aesthetic. The paint scheme also doe a very good job of matching the weapons which is also a big plus in my book. The actual parts look great together, and I never thought I'd get to see that head look halfway good. The legs give it a a much needed sleek look to complement the big sniper rifle, while the arms mesh well with the core. The hands also have this comical aspect of looking too big for the rest of the frame, but that's not really a negative in this case. 3rd Place: #4 This bot might've fallen out of placing in the top 3, except its name goes extremely well with its theme and aesthetic. With the current idea running behind it, this bot easily secures its top 3 position to me. This bot looks as though it could easily pass as AC2 arena ranker Tomboy's bigger brother-- who I coincidentally always felt like she had an ac that looked like it was made of cardboard or some other kind of shoddy looking material. The paint job goes really well with the concept and consists of a bunch of colors you think you'd find comprising the little dainty cardboard and metal shacks you'd find in a shanty town. The whimsical idea behind this dingo of a bot makes me love it. Honorary mentions: #5 and #7 (in no particular order) The idea behind #5 is great. Take an infamous and comical arena ranker bot, and put it in the contest, after it's already had a history of being in other contests prior to this. Werehound's PK sports a very memorable aesthetic and paint job for me, with the mostly muted arms compared to the rest of the frame. It would have been a solid placer in the top 3, but there are a good amount of stronger and more original bots out there. #7 is a very strong looking tank overall, with the arm laser rifle giving most of its overall aesthetic merit in my book. The laser rifle and shoulder missile relations give this tank a very rugged and rudimentary look that I find intriguing, but the paint job is too generic and not rugged enough looking for this tank to potentially place higher.

Bakuhatsu Pengin Posted November 22, 2013 Report Share Posted November 22, 2013 swift bmgoddamnit ZLR-ARROW is unfair. despite the fact that the frame works brilliantly with itself and the whole ac has a great unison to it, im pretty sure everyone and their mother has come up with the same frame design after seeing ARROW legs. still, its too strong to simply write it off as trite. at least the paint is original (and nicely constructed), although i do feel like the ac grey couldve been made to match the weapon grey orbitgood job matching up the sawa/moonlight colors to the frame. i think there should be some red somewhere on the ac though to go with the sawa/moonlight accents, but the yellow matches well with the muted green. good use of frame parts as well, but overall its a bit boring bloodstainedred and black is for 12 year olds. still looks cool though. the sniper rifle is out of place in terms of aesthetic and color though, and the rockets are better left to more blocky acs imo. im probably asking for too much matching on the weapon parts than i should be but hey its an aesthetics acdc. looks like someone just took their normal quad and spruced it up a bit. if i didnt care about matching so damn much id say it looks pretty damn cool except for those atrocious boosters that look like those ugly flower budlings or something. cardboardits cute but the paintjob looks like a kid who vomited a load of froot loops PKi think i died to this guy like 10 times before i blew him up with missiles pure lifelighttank looks amazing in AA and im glad its not an arrow bot. looks great and its nice and simple without back units. totally used stock pink color in garage, but stock colors in aa look pretty good guardian mk iwat a badass tank. its weird cuz it seems like its just a normal missioning tank but i like it a lot compared to the other aa entries because its cool but its not trying that hard but its aslo trying to be not tryhard. like, yeah, and stuff thickskinat first i really liked the way it looked but after looking at it more and more it just looks like a fat guy with junkyard scrap glued to him. the colors were cool at first too but im not really feeling the pinkish tan color thats supposed to work with the bright green, the burgundy, and the dark green (and i dont think that the bright green really fits in here either). iunno it just looks uglier the more i look at it. the frame parts all work well with each other but idk man like fuck blanka pig-stickerthe colors work great on this cuz its got the blue to offset the copper-ish red and the legs are such a huge contrast to the upper frame that its somehow appealing. also, the legs have a very loose relationship to the core (the pink metal areas) so i think that helps bring it together. night does well to match the head part and the head part does well to match the core and arms. the shield also matches the back core domes but those arent visible. i voted1 - 72 - 43 - 1 but thats definitely gonna be changed soon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ataraxis Posted December 2, 2013 Report Share Posted December 2, 2013 (edited) 1st - Design 82nd - Design 53rd - Design 4 Swift BMGreat use of spiky, angular parts, from frame to weaponry. The paint has good balance and does a nice job of showing off different details in the parts. OrbitLooks like something I would make in 2002. I like it, and nothing really seems out of place, but there's nothing that makes it really stand out. BloodstainedRed and black, but done well enough that I won't complain. I really like the pop of the brighter red. The frame looks good, and being the lone quad entry, it sticks out a bit more. I'm not really feeling the weapon set up. CardboardThe small, detailed parts look great in that very bright citrusy paint scheme. Bright colours looked amazing in AC2. This just looks like a bundle of energy. PKFantastic recreation of a very recognizable bot. I really like ACs with a theme, but usually the exception to that is ACs built to look like series ACs. I'd say this is the exception to the exception, but the inspiration is usually crap like Evangel, and in this case it...wasn't. Looks great. Pure LifeI dig the stripped down look and how it's basically just a pair for floating cannon arms. Guardian Mk. IEverything about this thing just looks mean. Big tank with a nasty looking weapon load-out, along with a really dark paint scheme. The red kind of gets me thinking of creepy ass evil glowing bug eyes in the night. Might have been a cool match with quad legs, but the tank look is great. The blue treads are throwing me off. #ThickSkinArmed to the teeth and looking sturdy as all hell. The paint fits really well, too, and makes use of colours and combinations I haven't seen on a lot of bots. This thing just looks flat out badass. Pig-StickerThe top half, and the paint in general, looks absoultely fantastic. I really don't like those legs on this bot, BUT I LOVE THAT HEAD AND CORE COMBINATION.

Queen Drac Wraith Posted December 26, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 26, 2013 (edited) this is 1 of the stronger categories, but not as strong as MOA 1: Swift BMThis hover uses a good set of hover legs, but I don't seem to like them as much as some others. The paint gives it a nice and "rustic" finish for lack of a better word. The weapon selection is good, but could be improved. 7/10 2: OrbitThis design is solid but dull. The weapons go well with the frame and the paint looks nice, but nothing sticks out except for its dullness. 5/10 3: BloodstainedThis is a quad that pulls off a common color scheme well. The frame and weapons work together well, but some minor frame changes and perhaps some changes in the weaponry would probably make this design even better. 8/10 4: CardboardThe frame goes well together and the colors are original and look nice. The colors aren't the best and the weapon selection could be spruced up a bit. Still a solid design, but not outstanding. 7/10 5: PKThis design has a good frame and good paintjob. The parts go well together for the most part and the paint compliments them well. The design is solid but not outstanding. 8/10 6: Pure LifeThis bat has a good frame and a cool concept with it, but the paint is a bit dull. The paint works, but just doesn't help this design stand out. I would make the color more defined. 7/10 7: Guardian Mk. IThis is a solid tank design, but could use some touching up work. The weapon selection is nice and compliments the bat well, but the blue treads don't help this design. It still pulls off a mean look though. 8/10 8: #ThickSkinThis is a great design. It pulls off a mean look with a great color selection. The green lights make this bat that much better. The name just makes this design that much better. 9/10 9: Pig-StickerThis design doesn't shine like some of the others, but it is still solid. The paint and weapons go well, with a good frame except for the legs. The legs just don't go with this bat if you ask me and that is my main complaint with this design. 7/10 1st: 8, #ThickSkin2nd: 5, PK3rd: 1, Swift BM Edited December 26, 2013 by Drac Wraith Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
