  Marvin the Paranoid Android
 
(URL) Also, I took a photo of the set up I did for the pictures of Marvin. Relatively simple, I think. (URL) Hosted on Flickr> -Lenny (20 years ago, 3-May-05, to lugnet.space, lugnet.announce.moc, lugnet.build.mecha, FTX) !! 
 
  Re: Marvin the Paranoid Android
 
(...) While I like it (and had to go and investigate the Lowell Sphere which is a rather neat construct), I was a little disappointed it was the new Marvin. Still that leaves room for others to try the old one... Danny (20 years ago, 3-May-05, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Spheres
 
(...) I recently made a smaller plate sphere in the same vein as Bruce's design: (URL) Enjoy. --Bram (20 years ago, 3-May-05, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.build, FTX)  
 
  Re: Marvin the Paranoid Android
 
(...) Nice. I think you really nailed the depressed look. (...) Your setup looks good. I really need to get around to buying some better lighting.

  Re: Marvin the Paranoid Android
 
(...) Thanks Jason! My lighting is really cheap. Both lamps are $10 or less, and the bulbs are normal sorts of bulbs (less than $5). Tripod isn't anymore than $15, and white paper that size should be easy to get in the $5 range. Less than the (...) (20 years ago, 3-May-05, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

(...) It looks absolutely nothing like him, he's not even silver, or fat. It's no worse than any other mech I've seen lately though. Steve (20 years ago, 3-May-05, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)
 
  Re: Marvin the Paranoid Android
 
(...) (in slightly depressed tone) It's ok, I suppose. I sure that you were tired and overworked when making this rather small figurine. I feel sorry for you. I'd get more excited about it but, just can't quite work up the effort. :) Mark N (20 years ago, 3-May-05, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)
 
  Re: Marvin the Paranoid Android
 
(...) Hahaha!! Thanks for the thoughtful note.. now that I reflect on it, the MOC does lend itself towards certain melancholy thoughts. -Lenny (20 years ago, 3-May-05, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)
 
  Re: Marvin the Paranoid Android
 
(...) Well thanks, I guess. He does have Marvin's giant spherical head. And his droopy eyes. I guess that doesn't really count in the "absolutely nothing like him." Maybe I should have added that I didn't have the parts to do him in white (he's not (...) (20 years ago, 3-May-05, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)
 
  Re: Marvin the Paranoid Android
 
(...) Wow, I must admit that my first thought was "that's a pretty sweet 'bot that kind of reminds me of Marvin" but to say he looks absolutely nothing like him is stretching things a bit. (...) Ah, but here's where you're wrong, Mr. Poopy-pants. (...) (20 years ago, 3-May-05, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)
 
  Re: Marvin the Paranoid Android
 
Hey wow, that is so cool. I really like the way you built that! The proportions are good and I think the entire Bot looks great. Thanks for sharring! e (20 years ago, 3-May-05, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Re: Marvin the Paranoid Android
 
Hey Lenny, I suspect you missed the joke and that, like Mark's post downthread, Steve was mimicking Marvin's version of high praise. That said, you can't imagine how many "but Orthanc doesn't really look like that, because Peter Jackson says so" (...) (20 years ago, 3-May-05, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)
