Robosan & dog Rivet - mini automata model finished.
[Go to the bottom of this page to see a making process from the start]
some pics of finished model...
Base finished...
Wood base. I used green stuff to make rivets so it looks like metal pieces are connected together...Primer used before painting
small plastic rivets glued...
Robosan with his dog Rivet...
Painting finished... As last layer, varnish applied...
side view...
washing paint applied...nice effect achieved.
Copper applied...
Time to paint robot... Before actual painting primer was used.
Painting finished. I used silver paint (dry technique applied) on black color.
Time for painting...
A cover for the hole is movable; can be open and mechanism can be seen.
The plan of the robot is visible in background. I made a hole in a cork using sharp knife and players. Most of parts are glued together. Hands are movable. Inside of the hole in cork I put washer which looks like gear. This will be a heart that moves by turning a crank.
I have used an electrical components to make a small dog.
The idea is to make a mini automaton in steampunk style. Basic pieces to start making a robot on the picture. I have used also brass wire and mini plastic rivets, which will be shown on next images.
