Robot Pirates

A robot head with crossed wrenches. I'm not sure what it's about, either, but I felt like making it. Pirates and robots; two great tastes that taste great together, right? OK, maybe it's a bit weird, but I'm easily amused. You know, I've probably got about as many pirate designs as robot designs. What can I say? I'm a geek.

Available from Cafepress, Printfection, Spreadshirt, and Zazzle (mouse pad, t-shirts, and stickers).

Depressed Robot

It's a robot and he's depressed. I'm sure you've had days like this. The version above was 3D printed on Shapeways from laser sintered nylon and hand painted. It's printed white and you can order it dyed various colors but it's very easy to paint if you're interested in that sort of thing.
It's also available in 2D on a variety of products on Cafepress, Zazzle, Spreadshirt (pixel and vector), and Printfection. This is one of my favorites. In fact, I'm wearing a shirt with the vector version printed on it right now. It's got the flex print metallic silver and is nice and shiny.

Robots For Sale

This newest blog showcasing individual themes from my stores focuses on robots. I grew up on a steady diet of Science Fiction and my favorites always relied heavily on our mechanical friends. Star Wars, Short Circuit, Robotech, Gobots, and Transformers - you couldn't turn on the TV, go to the movies, or walk down the toy aisle without seeing robots. Heck, in the 80's, nearly every toy I owned either turned was a robot or turned into one. I swear, buried in a box somewhere in my childhood home is a little, yellow, plastic cube that turns into a robot. My brother had a sphere that did the same. Why? Why not! Robots are awesome and that's all the reason I needed.

These are available for sale on all my various online stores such as Cafepress, Zazzle, Spreadshirt,Printfection, Spoonflower, Shapeways, and MySoti. The Spreadshirt page is for my shop, where I've got t-shirts already designed but you can design your own by clicking here, then "Choose Design", and search for "will la puerta". Some of those links will take you right to geeky designs, but some stores don't have categories to keep things organized like that. You can also keep up with all my latest additions on the Reaper Media Facebook Page.

I visualize a time when we will be to robots what dogs are to humans, and I'm rooting for the machines.
