With each project, you should increase the challenges. This time it's hydraulics... with SPRINGS! Whooooaaa... 😱 #b3d

Btw: These are the graphs for the IK controller at the bottom. It's just simple elastic key frames placed at specific spots 😉

The motion is fantastic, but also just the design of the linkages is so cool!

Thanks Ian! That means a lot, coming from the person I learned it from 🙂

This is amazing. Love the jutter as it retracts. Really adds weight to the mechanism!

Thank you! The leg won't move like this in the end but for showing the rig it's a nice detail I like to include 🙂 Also a good exercise for future robots 🤖

Oh and btw, I got these mechanical assets from @JonasDigitalArt Check out his Artstation and this amazing product:

This is SIICK! Cant even imagine how to even approach creating this, nice job!

Hehe... When seeing it step by step it's easy. Mostly it's a simple leg from top left to bottom right. Just with a few more connected bones. The mechanical objects make it look more complex than it actually is 😉

@Papheoo Good job, springs can be tricky!

@Papheoo They can be for sure. But I found some good tutorials on YouTube for that.
