Icon and featured characters by @cozylittleartblog

If you're confused about why your submission was declined, please review the rules.

RULES

NO AI GENERATED IMAGES.

Keep it SAFE FOR WORK. No NSFW, no fetish art, none of that - and if it's got a mature content filter on it and/or the word "sexy" in the title/tags, it doesn't belong here. Period. Mechanical gore is fine, organic gore is not. Basically, if viewing it in your average office would get you FIRED, don't submit it here.

No politics

No watcher-only deviations!

Please don't advertise in the comments! If you want to show something off, submit it!

No hatespeech, racism, homophobia/anti-LGBTQIA+ or exclusionist art, etc etc is allowed in submissions. If you take issue with people of color or queer people, etc, you are not welcome here.

No Harassment. Please do not harass each other. Be kind. We're all here 'cause we love robots. There's no reason to fight. Fighting will result in removal from the group.

No Stolen Artwork. Please don't take images off of google, upload them, and try to pass them as your own art. No screenshots from media, and no base or dollmaker art either. There is ONE EXCEPTION: If the art was drawn for you and you have the artist's permission to upload it to dA, then you are allowed to submit it here. :D

Robots are the focus of the group, but if you would like to submit art that features another species that is fine AS LONG AS there is a robot character present.

Characters submitted don't have to be characters you draw all the time, they can be one-off designs c:

Please submit your art to the right folder. We've got seven folders, six of which you can submit to. It's really not hard to put stuff where it belongs. If you don't know where to submit your piece, just check the folder descriptions within the folders and try and match up your character to the best definition. If one of the folders is full, please contact the admit @cozylittleartblog

The featured folder is for the best of the best. Members are not allowed to submit to it directly, but I will go through the regular folders myself every now and then and move art to it as necessary.

This group doesn't have a lot of quality control, we accept artists of all skill levels! HOWEVER, please refrain from submitting several versions of the same piece. If you have art that you have multiple submissions of, all with subtle changes, PLEASE SUBMIT YOUR FAVORITE. Duplicates will be removed. Also, please do not submit art drawn on notebook paper unless it's relevant to the art piece.

Cyborgs are allowed, but only if they are mostly (80% or more) robotics.

Human-passing robots (IE, Detroit: Become Human, Terminator) are allowed, but tag your deviation or mention in the description that the character is a robot.

This blog operates off a 'three strikes' policy. Break these rules three times and you are removed from the group. Please follow the rules.

MEDIA RECOMMENDATIONS

roboticdreams isn't my blog, but they do have a wonderful list of robot-related media for people to enjoy! I'd like to share it here in case you're looking for books/movies/cartoons/what have you with robots in them. Here's the link to the list!
