"Let's see... covered in marble and add golden cap to the top of the pyramid...but those weren't in the box." I know the manual is about the robot, but that's what I thought. Those pyramids aren't in their original splendor to be sure.
Maybe it's more of a "Hey, wait I can DO THAT? Dang it, that would have some me some time and frustration."
Seriously though, good pic. Normally making something or somebody faceless makes them less sympathetic, but the human elements (like needing to sit down to read) very much help.

You're welcome.
When I first looked at it, I thought he was reading a manual for the pyraminds, but then I read your description.

After further thought, I think maybe he is lost and seeking to run a diagnostic check on his navigation and guidance systems.

I guess you may be right. But who knows?

Before looking at the description I thought it was a manual for he pyramids. Align in eastward direction for best preservation. That sort of thing

That robot looks like H.E.L.P.eR. from the venture brothers! Just with legs instead of a swivel chair.

Very intruiging, I would never have thought of anything like this. At first glance it looks like a simple drawing, but as you look properly you see all sorts of symbolism. I'm not explaining myself very well so....I like it and am going to fave it

I wanted to be anachronistic, (since most robots/androids would probably have their own manual in digital format installed within themselves). Also you've got past (pyramids), present (the book), and future (robot). Thanks for commenting, very astute!

Thank you very much. When you say "simply" is that because there is not a lot going on or too few details? Is there anything should add to it or change?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
