We modeled it in a hour and used a skylight for all the lighting. Any help for the textures? Also we are not to sure how to add shinyness to the metal since specularity does not work with a skylight.

looks good how does the actual robot run

the drive train seems to be stable and we move very fast but the large wheels hinder the turning. the arm is also vulnerable to skewing but the claw can grab boxes in any position and stack them up 4 high. the claw rotates on itself and between the two arm bars. but i really like the candy apple red powder coat.
