Scrappy robots made from junk in a gritty post-apocalyptic city at dawn.

A post-apocalyptic city scene at dawn, viewed from low to the ground. In the foreground, a tiny, scrappy survivor robot built from household junk: mismatched lamp legs, a PC board torso, wires, a bent garden light for a solar panel, arms of forks and pipes, with obvious tape and patch repairs. Behind it, only slightly larger, agile predator robots lurk—multi-jointed, fast, built from hedge trimmer arms, drill motors, rollerblade wheels, and old tool parts—nothing bulky or monstrous, just cunning and efficient. Prey bots, even smaller and simpler, made from toys, remote controls, battery packs and plastic wheels, scurry nearby. All bots are clearly cobbled together from junk, nothing symmetrical, no designed elegance. The city ruins tower in the background, making the bots look even more vulnerable and small. Mood: gritty, gritty realism, "Batteries Not Included" style, survival and adaptation. See more
