RK more fun WIP : spaceman Spiffs Hobbinator

this is VERY early work but and knowing me will change a lot or never get finished

took my idea for the walker a bit on this one
cept put a mini character inside
going armless with this one weapons will rest in right side "holster" left side may change a bit yet

this may be just a simply fun one to do but if I get some skinning help it may look really cool
was gonna make it Stewie (Family guy) and may still add him as a second model

but my son is reading Calvin & Hobbes right now so...

haha looks good, I'm kind of pulling for Calvin on this one though (:

Calvin's much cooler than Stewie.

I think it needs a 'Calvin piss on [insert object]' sticker
hehe maybe Stewie can be the object.

did some more work on the legs

after a multitude of issues (weapon mount, skin, transparencies )
did a major overhaul made it more C&H ish

thus : the BOX
still need to do Hobbes yet but I like

Definitely needs something funny on the side of the box.

I don't ever recall Hobbes in any Spiff adventures. If you want to have them both, why not just make it classic Calvin in the box with Hobbes? Could even be a simple floating box or with carboard box legs

Also, this would be going all complicated, but I think it really cool to have taunts that make a speech bubble from the comics appear, or even have BLAMs and OWs appear when hit.

I think you'd have to do it by having a few rectangles hidden inside the box, and then use an alpha layer to create the transparency around the speech bubble.

actually no Spiff this time going Calvin & Hobbes guess I should change the topic title LOL

red wagon maybe?

the speech bubbles would be cool but also very distracting and hard to see around when fighting

well if you look at the history of this walker for me it has been MOSTLY frustration

so I'm trying to keep it simple this time , the box just jumped out at me as easy and funny as heck too

I was thinking to to "Transmorgifier" and an down arrow and "Time Travel" and an up arrow on the side for sure (referencing its history)
and maybe a control panel on the flaps but in crayon
