Another Junji Okubo design - Bouncer S2WT
-
This is to show how I am trying to rough form the next step.
The next post will show the finish result.
-
Will be impressive when i see its twitter
-
Very rough block out of the overall shape. Not all the legs are shown either.
-
Where do you come up with this stuff!! Guess I am getting too old for this environment.

Honestly? Google search sci-fi. Japanese anime. Futurism. Robots. Spaceships. Etc.
But yeah, random google searches. But I now know who Junji Okubo is and I like his work so I will be doing more of his designs. It was his spaceship design I did the last time.
Deviant Art sci-fi is also a great source.

Started detail on the chassis and added all the legs. The chassis is a simple half side component then copied and mirrored. Same with the legs. Got the positions on one side and then move/copied and mirrored.
Simple push/pull cutouts for the chassis and push/pull height match to circles that are the axles for the legs. Nothing has to be perfect. I'm just eyeballing it. (guess-stimating)
The end collars for the axles are slightly conical.

Damn what a pain! This took a lot of fiddling to get right. So deceptively simple. So crazy complex with it's weird compound curves.
Lots and lots of push/pull.
And frankly, I'm only "close" to what the drawing looks like. But close enough. Moving on.
The good part is this is the hardest element of the robot to create.
-
Under-chassis detail. Just more push/pull. It's hard to show so I hope some of you can tell what is going on.
-
Overview update.
Next will be the middle section that supports the top disk.
-
Blimey, really moved on, it's great mate.

Thanks! I'm feeling inspired with this one.
-
Angle base complete.
Simple circle push/pull and scale bevels with Joint push/pull for the tail lights. Pipe along path for small piping.
Same technique of half component then copy move and mirror.
-
Update. Some final chassis modification and finished support turntable.
Next will be the angled disk base section, just below the disk itself.
Again, more push/pull, and fiddling around moving things.
Used round corner tool on some parts.
-
More ridiculous fiddling with the front sensors, but here it is. Finished!
Note the feet added as well. Nothing special. They can be made up as anyone sees fit.
-
... what a cool Design - in this case I´m looking forward to some cool renders, anytime in future
-
Cool adaptation result!
-
Thanks Pilou.
-
That is a very cool beast, where can I get one for guard dog duties?
-
Ha! Right?
Thanks Mike.
