Wow!, I like it!

Here’s mine as it’s going together
It looks a little pathetic and simple next to yours. Once I see how it looks
with the legs on, I may add a few greebles to those flat sides.

oh! oh!

Oops skipped #6. Arms an legs are the next step.

The mouth has a pink star wand as the tongue. heh. I’m the man.
|
Yes you are.
|
I got a real kick out of adding that part there.

I had fun making the tail (the end of the spine) on mine. It’s nice and
flexible.
 
|
That is killer! It looks so organic, plus I really like all the choice pieces
that you used. Just terffic.

The Spine and Hips have been completed and fitted together.
I’m working on the Feet at the moment.
#8 Make some Hips

The nice thing about a roo’s hips is that they don’t move independantly. I’m
only using one direction of motion. I did use a worm gear joint for the first
time though. It is adjusted by twisting the scrotum on the underside :)

This is funny (to me) because someone asked me the other day if I would ever
make a Roo, myself. I thought about it and there you are making one, sooooo
cooool!!!!
The single rotation point must be a time saver and a headache saver as well.
Nice job.

Questions, comments and feedback appreciated.

It’s looking impressive so far. I can never work out how you build such large
robots so quickly.
I’ve got the legs and arms yet to go on mine, and then detailing the cockpit.
I expect there’ll be some re-sculpting of the torso before I’m done though.
This is fun.

details before I start my photograpghy. Stay tuned.
Thanks Allister!
