:bulletred: This chimneystack it would seem has an identity crisis. On a distant planet populated by robotic bots this one here had maybe what you would call an upgrade in one of the billion junkyards spread out across the land. It was assigned to be regular power plant bot that roams the land sucking up all the most viable resources for it's masters and other planets and salvaging all the useful pieces of junk spread out across this planet. But one day while roaming one of the junkyards it came across these skinny little robotic legs and a nice shiny pair of red shoes on another bot. Those shoes were quite sparkly too. With a couple tweaks and a wrench it first took off the legs from the other bot then it's old rusty legs, and tried on these new legs for size. It was pleasantly surprised to find that the small little legs could actually hold it's own weight. With those new legs and sparkly red slippers it went across the land skimping and jumping across the other smoking chimney bots. As if the legs acted on their own it danced about without realizing it and clipped the red slippers together and jumped higher and higher were ever he went.
The other half of the ballet bot that was left in the junkyard wasn't too enthusiastic when it awoke to find its leg's and red slippers missing though :)


:bulletred: Hmm, time will only tell what that other half of the bot will do! I was experimenting some more with textures and I think I got some pretty neat results out of this. Enjoy!

The Ballet Chimney has not only a great texture, but a wild imagination and a great story behind it to boot! Don't miss this charming, bizarre deviation by by =TheTrashCaretaker! ( Suggested by ~DreamsLayers and Featured by $damphyr )

The narrative alone is worth a DD; fantastic conceptualization.
