I've spent most of the day adding models to the www.flying-pig.co.uk web site. I'm in the process of converting said web site from static pages to database driven, which, unfortunately means I have to spend ages and ages moving data from static pages into a database. Once it is done its done though. And I'll be glad.

I've found time this afternoon, to put together a more complete belt driven robot. If you can imagine him with rivets and textured colouring I think you'll agree that he is coming along nicely.

I reckon I might be able to use belt drive for a butterfly model I've been thinking about for a while...

Hi Rob,

you designed an excellent model again. I like the steam punk similarity. I'm curious about the color scheme, you will use. Maybe somewhat green and red, like an old steam engine. A metallic look would also be interesting ... I'm sure you will have the right touch.

Best  regards

Thanks! I'm just about to make a start on the colours now - I've been looking through a few books and websites for inspiration. Progress report shortly.
