(from memory)

we are some robots

I always thought of Robbie (Forbidden Planet) and Robot (Lost in Space) as being very similar, but now that I draw them I realize the only thing they have in common is a plexiglass head. The giant robot from Dr Who I can’t remember very well at all— that’s supposed to be him third from the left. I would have drawn Hector, but unfortunately I can’t remember what he looked like, except that his (organic) brain was inside his torso, and where his head should be were only glowing eyes on a mechanical arm. The floating midget bot is V.I.N.CENT (The Black Hole), and is also how I remember Huey, Dewey and Louie (Silent Running)— except I don’t think they could hover, so I’ve no idea what their undercarriage looked like.

Belated props to the creator of Robbie for not resorting to flexible plastic ducting for his limbs :)

    Police Officer: Do any of them look like the one that killed your crew and wouldn’t open the pod-bay doors?
    Dave: mmm… I’m not sure. These guys just all look the same to me somehow…

    Drawing HAL could be difficult— he’s either a lens on a rectangular faceplate, a tiny room full of glowing perspex blocks, or an entire spacecraft!

    Now these would make a good shirt : ) but I guess the copyright thing would be a tad problematic?

    Yarrrrr… copyright be damned!

    Just draw them all taking a wiz!
    That, evidently, makes it “fair use”.

    IANAL!
