I love it! Great perspective too, he's so big and the crowd that gave him the shove so little. When I was in Mexico I visited a place where they used to sacrifice maidens by tossing them off the cliff way above a little lake, just like in your picture. It was a tourist site but had no fence or railings! Just a sign that said "Peligro." If it was in the U.S. I'm sure it would have been totally fenced off or filled in!

Hahahahaha!

Oooh, that was so wrong of me.

To make up for it, I'm imagining a fantastic set of 'bot rebuilders wayyyy down at the bottom who have supersonic new parts for the poor lil' Sacrifical Robot.

The crowd only stands up there, while the big little robot is thrown away - poor 'bot... Your image is expressive, allthough it's drawed so simple, and there's a very fine perspective - nice illo!

Valerie, by all means use my 'bots. Let me know if you post the collage somewhere - I'd like to take a look at it.

Tony - Virgin robot. Yes, of course :)

Wow MJM, this really brings back some of the robot stories I've read. The poor little guy, shouldn't have trusted those squishy skins!
