NSFW/Image Macro: Smart People Build Robots

Fanart with no credit or evidence of permission.

And unless someone knows Japanese, we're likely not going to be able to ask permission. I'm good to pull it.

Pull.

Should be easy to replace with an image from Girl Genius.

Pull current.

How about Gyro Gearloose?

The thing he's working on looks like a machine rather than a robot.

Something like [1] is a better picture for Gyro.

Pull regardless of replacement.

Yeah, pull.

I like that. I give it one thumbs up. It'll get both thumbs up if it can be found in better quality.

Agreed, if we can find a better-quality version, then it's better than my suggestion.

I prefer 6 to 7 because 7 has bad quality.

More suggestions: panel 5, panel 7, or panel 1.

I can't see 6; can you post it here?

I don't really like those because the previous suggestions achieve the same without text.

Here◊ is the proper link for 6.

Hey, 6 does look somewhat like a robot. There's the cylindrical head-like thing and the "arm" with a light bulb... I can go with that or a higher-quality image similar to 7.

I could live with 6, I think.

That might do.

Current also has quality issues on top of the other stuff, so pull.

x2 That scan doesn't seem to be the best quality, either.

Bump. I like .

17, then.

We'd need permission, but maybe this?

Both 6 and 17 are good enough, so I don't think we'd need to bother ourselves with trying to ask permission for a fanart.

17 is fine. I can live with that quality.

...I'm honestly kind of torn. I know that we'd have to go through the trouble of getting permission for 22, but I really think it best fits the spirit of the trope. 6 only vaguely resembles a robot, and 17 is closer to "people who build robots are smart" (which kind of goes without saying).

Would it hurt to at least ask the artist about 22?
