Wow.
It seems that I started quite the little brouhaha with this post. Let’s see,
where to begin...
First, this is by no means a negative critique of this MOC. I don’t get why
people think that. Eric, you are an awesome builder of bipedal bots. Probably
better than any other living person at them, I’d wager. But that’s the thing.
If you applied your skills to a train, or a ship, or something (the Moonbase
support bases are a great start, for example) I know you could do awesome
things. I understand that bipeds are what you’ve been doing for 16-17 years
now, and what you’re known for. That’s a lot of time dedicated to your art.
Why be Thomas Kinkade, perfecting
only one style of art, when you can be
Picasso, and innovate many
different styles.
If you want to be Kinkade, fine, that’s your prerogative. And it’s perfectly
acceptable. I just happen to prefer seeing artists diversify their styles.
I guess this is what I get for attending to personal matters and leaving the
Internet for a couple of days. A flamewar starts over a relatively innocuous (I
thought) post.
If you continue to dislike me because of my “immature backroom behavior” (what
is this, 4th grade?) then that’s your prerogative too. I can be a right a-hole
at times, I know. It’s the way that I am. If you can’t see through that to
what used to be, I thought, a pretty cordial relationship, well that’s fine too.
Enjoy building bots, although I know you could be doing so much more.
Adrian
