Robots Made From Found Objects

I love robots made from found objects!

I'm always especially impressed when I see a robot sculpture
and can immediately tell what the personality of the robot 

is from it's facial expression, dress, or body language.

If it has great character, the personality is apparent.

Now let me make myself clear - you can't just put some 

old cans and metal scraps together and call it a robot. 

Nope! This type of found object sculpting takes an artistic 

eye and careful consideration, and is an art within itself! 

See a few of my favorites below...
