Hash Fellow robcat2075 Posted August 5, 2011 Hash Fellow Share Posted August 5, 2011 I think I like this take on the body shape a bit more. Still needs some more development. eggbot.mov Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Admin Rodney Posted August 6, 2011 Admin Share Posted August 6, 2011 Robert... Three for three! (amazingly cute) ...and may I just say, a particularly great example of the rule of repetition augmented by the rule of threes. Three for three for three for three.

Hash Fellow robcat2075 Posted August 9, 2011 Author Hash Fellow Share Posted August 9, 2011 Anyone got ideas for what the other joints are? Something "mech" but cute and easy enough to use for teaching a beginner modeling skill. I could do rubber accordian joints again for the hips and ankles but maybe there are other possibilities? I've considered doing a standard hinge joint for the ankle. The hips are a bit more mysterious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
largento Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 I think the eggbot character is great, Robert. A great way to focus just on leg and hip movements. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Admin Rodney Posted June 14 Admin Share Posted June 14 Over the years since this Eggbot was first posted (2011!) I've sketched a number of characters surely inspired by this model. Here's a 3 drawing animation (cheated a little via scaling vertically) I doodled today. (Seeing it animated definitely allows us to see where we could exaggerate and emphasize more and get some additional follow through and overlap) In case it's not obvious... the character in the robo-legs is a chicken.
