"TRE03" Customized Sketchbot for #throwbacktoythursday

I had been reminded of this custom make (thanks Facebook), and thought to repost this here today for #throwbacktoythursday! Featured above (WIPs) and below (in-hand) are videos of "TRE03" = my one-of-a-kind customised collectible made from a 5 inch tall vinyl Sketchbot (originally) designed by @stevetalkowski, meant to participate in a “Sketchbot Custom Show” at myplasticheart in New York City (circa March 2010). And while this piece did not managed to reach the venue for the exhibition launch, it has since been Sold! Check put still images since uploaded HERE on Facebook :)

I have not done a whole lot of customs, but this is still one of my favs ... and wouldn't it be great to see a return of SKETCHBOT??? What do you rain, Steve? :)

STORY: "Once any entity attains awareness, he/she/it will be first aware of the notion and need for self-sustained survival, and eventually of war... no one likes to be a slave, robot or human…"
