Robot Unicorn [LASER CUTTER COMPATABLE]
fromsoysauce:
In my Digital Fabrication class we have access to a Laser Cutter. I've been working on this. It will be cut out of a single sheet of Acrylic. It requires no glue, and all joints can be moved on one axis.
Soon enough I will make some ball using the CNC mill, and those will replace the joints at the head, neck, shoulder and theighs.
But here is what the model will look like:
I'll post shots of the actual IRL figure when it's cut out and constructed
Thanos:
We'll be waiting! The project sounds very interesting. What university are you studying in?
Blick Fang:
totally cool! how can I get one??? Seriously? 8)
fromsoysauce:
@Cello, this program is the main force that has made 3 of my child hood dreams into realities: 1 making my own animated videos, 2 making video games, 3 making action figures! I actually foresaw all that potential in the program back when I was 12 years old.
@Thanos, University of Oklahoma
@Fang, The full size of the model is around 6 inches tall and 10 inches long. Once I make sure that everything snaps together perfectly I will sell them online.
This is just one of a series called "Auto-Equis" Which will have a Unicorn, A Pegasus, A Battle Horse, a Seahorse, a Pegacorn, and a Zebra.
Each one will come with about 110 pieces, a printed instruction manual, and a nice Canister that has a cool picture of your purchased Robot Horse. (Going for the Bionical Look)
Not sure what the price should be... At least given the size and number of parts.
And yes: If you buy certain combinations of them, you will be able to combine them into Supers.

This is wonderful, you should go into toy design. Check out the shapeways website.
