More from Rayverak
Just a little something I am working on from time to time. I figured after my animatronic modification of the T-Rex toy I could try something bigger. So I was planning on making a papercraft model with a basic animatronic rigg inside. This is a picture from the concept phase, where I am just trying to see how many degrees of motion I need and where I need to place them.
Using the same LipSynch animation I used for the toy I found that a tongue almost makes up for lips that cannot move.
I am not sure if this picture has the same effect on you, maybe it only works in the context of the animation but the way the upper part of his tongue is raised gave me shivers. I wanted to share that feeling.
Now I just gotta start the actual design phase.

I definitely want more room than I had with the toy mod so I'm thinking of a head length of about 20-25cm but I'll have to see how the mechanic for the jaw and eyes will fit in there and maybe resize him accordingly.
I am just going to use some standard printer paper in the 120g/m² area, I am not sure if I used 120 or above with my last paper-craft test, but it ended up to be a little hard to fold properly so I had to slightly cut the folds to get sharper edges.
At any rate I plan to coat it with resin afterward to add stability, and if that isn't enough there is still glass fiber.
I remember I hugely overestimate servos though.. so this is just to see how bad it will really be.
I hope adding counterweights to everything will help it some, but I am afraid it will just add to the inertia.
