Year of The Pig Chinese New Year!

We ran a year of the pig artbot competition to line up with the Lunar New Year! There have been some truly awesome entries and wed like to thank everyone who has taken the time to build some incredible robots. The grand winner of 500CC is Manana81 with his robot THE GENEROUS PIG 2019
This incredible pig & Dragon combo is not only visually beautiful to look at but is also combat ready. The teslas provide this robot with a dangerous bite and the pig is wielding a bowl filled with healing goodness!

Runner Ups:

We also have four runner ups BR4Y4NGAM3R with his robot Pig Lunar
This blue piggy bot is an elegant answer to the question what if pigs had wheels?. Charming and was one of the favorites of a few members from the Freejam team Kronoswms Okkoto was inspired by the film Princess Mononoke (if you haven't seen it, you should!). This bot does an incredible job of creating a spiky fur and an incredible level of detail in comparison to its film counterpart.
Kura3000 entered three robots into this competition. For fairness we included just one of his piggy bots into the draw. That Pig was aptly named Year of the pig which uses neon cubes to create a great vibrant background and platform for one of the happiest pigs you ever did saw!
Hoelderlins Festival Pig encapsulates the Lunar New year perfectly! Bright red chinese lanterns and adorable little hoofed feet complete this pigs red attire.
Blue_Diamond_2017 created a Megapig called laser pig. We are particularly fond of its giant curly tail!

Honorable mentions:

The first honorable mention is from Pun_Shinamon, unfortunately they were just one day late to enter the Artbot competition so their entry didn't count. But as a result of this, in the future all Artbot competitions will run for two weeks so that we can give players much more time to enter.

InsaneLiving shared his pig based version of Ghidora, an iconic villain from the Godzilla films
