"But then suddenly, the fire stops. I immediately turn to face the robot, my sword flaring to life with electricity. It lowers its arms in a defensive stance, a clip ejecting from the still spinning gattling gun and then pauses."

So, yeah. I can draw action poses when I feel like it.

I just had fun with the robot to make it look modern and dangerous while fighting the urge to make it overly humanoid. I like tri-pods. I hope my interpretation isn't too far off from the intended image.

I also tried to draw bullet-holes in the tiles, but I thought the tiles would look more high-tech if they didn't crack or have damage spread to nearby tiles and... yeah, sorry 'bout those.

Aside from the bullet-holes, I'm actually rather pleased with the final result.
