Speak freely but don't be stupid about it or you'll find yourself on the last train to Clarksville, ya dumbass.

he's already on the discord Adam :P

Fantasy all access - upcoming tournaments is a good place to go if you want to actually enter a tournament

Submission center is a good place for if you mostly just do creative stuff

there's also an RA2 thread pinned in the gaming complex

TinkerCAD, Blender and Google Sketchup are all free. TinkerCAD and Sketchup both have onlike tutorials, Cha0sferret posted a blender tutorial in the submission thread.

you can also model robots with mspaint and hand drawings. or use physical models or RA2, though this is less advisable due to design constraints and issues we've had interpreting past physical models
