A friend of mine, Daniel H. Wilson, doctor of robotics, previously-blogged author of How to Survive a Robot Uprising, and friend to robots everywhere is now hosting a new show on History. It’s called “The Works,” and it premieres tonight at 10pm ET/PT.

“The Works, with the help of robotics expert and jack of all trades Daniel H. Wilson, dissects a wide range of topics from power tools to sneakers to motorcycles, uncovering their history and the unimaginable intricacies of things we take for granted.”

Make sure to watch it if you can. Check out the show’s page for more info.

I haven’t featured someone else’s robot art in a while, but when Jason Goad contacted me about these two new prints of his, I couldn’t resist. Each print is a five-color screenprint, and is, if you’ll notice, anatomically correct!

I look forward to adding these two prints alongside my other Goad robot print. Maybe you should think about doing the same.

BUY A SET HERE!

It’s an absolute pleasure to be able to feature a robot from Damian Wilcox. You should totally go check out Damian’s comics and other goodness at http://www.dorkboycomics.com.

Yet another robot from my fellow PNCA illustration student, Terry Blas. Terry does more with a ballpoint pen by noon than I do in a month. Once again, you can view a lot more of Terry’s work over at http://www.quickburningpaper.com.

I’m out of town for the Thanksgiving holiday, so luckily Brooklyn-based illustrator, Bozoartist, sent me this robot a little while ago to feature while I’m on break. Go check out more of Bozoartist’s work at http://bozoartist.livejournal.com.

I’m all about spreading the robot love, and so is Samuel Gualtieri. He sent me this trio a while ago and I’m happy to feature them. You can check out more of Samuel’s stuff at http://robotwore.livejournal.com or http://flickr.com/photos/artwescream.

I’ve got so much homework to do, but luckily I’ve got my friends in the illustration department to help me out. This one is from fellow PNCA’er, Terry Blas, and is of course based on the Flaming Lips’s Yoshimi Battles The Pink Robots. I did a drawing of a robot playing with a tiny unicorn for Terry that hopefully I will be showing here soon. You can see more of Terry’s work at http://www.quickburningpaper.com.

Dig this awesome robot! It’s from John Alan Birch, UK-based Illustration student. Being an Illustration student myself, it’s always nice to see the work of my cohorts. Check out more of John Alan’s work right here: http://john-alan.deviantart.com

Today’s robots come from Jeremy Tinder. He kindly personalized the copy of Cry Yourself To Sleep that I bought during the Stumptown Comics Fest this weekend. I’d been holding off buying it until I could get it in person. Also, in the best trade of the fest, I scored another robot painting of his (my third).

Sadly, this is the only picture I took all weekend. Welcome to the Robot-A-Day 1/2 table at the Stumptown Comics Fest! This was taken right before the doors opened to the public. All in all, I would say my first tabling experience was very successful. I got to meet a lot of cool folks, made some cash, and introduced the R-A-D to a lot of new fans (hopefully). Speaking of making cash, have you forgotten about the “Get BT Inked Fund?” After the comics fest, and another recent purchase, the fund is now up to a whopping… $26.10! Not too shabby. Remember, 10% of all sales get added to the fund. (Stumptown debuted items will be added to the R-A-D Store later tonight.)

CURRENT DONATIONS: $26.10

Lots of stuff today. This insanely cute piece of robot-ness comes from Lisa Max. I don’t want to discourage other artists from sending me their robot art to feature on the site, but I don’t know if anyone can top this. Please, feel free to try though. I highly recommend a visit to Lisa’s LiveJournal so you can be her friend. http://souldelay.livejournal.com

If you need more proof of how much I like “For Today I Am A Robot,” try this on for size: I am planning on this being my next tattoo. I already have Lisa’s permission, but there’s only one issue, being an art student doesn’t pay very well. So, I’m setting up the “Help BT Get Inked” fund. 10% of all R-A-D Store purchases will go towards the fund, or if you’re feeling generous, you can add to it directly. Even one dollar is that much closer to me going under the needle. It’s a simple design, and I probably won’t get it that big, so it really shouldn’t be too much, but “not too much” is still more than I have. So what do you say folks? Can you spare a little? (There will more than likely be a special gift for all direct donations.) Click on “my” bicep or the PayPal donation button below to add to the fund.

STILL MORE:
I had a very productive weekend. One of the biggest accomplishments was burning screens and printing all three colors on the “DESTROY!!!” print. They will debut at the Stumptown Comics Fest and any leftovers will be for sale here in November.
