Blu Tack Beetle

Blu Tack Beetles retrieve the bits you ‘lose’ and return them to the Blu Tack factory, where they squish them all together, roll them out flat, and sell them back to you cos you ‘ran out’.

Then they laugh their capitalist little wing cases off at you.

*It’s said that if you were to accidentally stand on one, your posters would forever fall off the wall.

EDIT: Added a landscape version and rejigged the animation timing a bit. I wasn’t happy with the amount of dead space in the middle.

Finally got round to playing with the Mechanical Creature Kit by Polyfjord

Its glorious- like lego on steroids. A lot of fun to be had.


Quick rig demo: faking some semi-believable mechanical rigging for this with IK chains locked to single axis along the legs to avoid geometry clipping through itself.

Just uploaded some wireframe screenshots. I’ll do some still renders and a rig demo too at some point.
