Look at that and you should see he has been making monsters for 30+ years.

From other forums that I have seen his work on he has posted a little bit about himself here.

Working on the 2nd servo floor. The servo controllers will not be inside skull.The servo’s plug wires was hitting inside the top of the skull.
So placing the controllers under the skull. Also, work on the foam rubber lips burn in the slot for lip wires.
So ,Look at my new birdnest …LOL

That is the single coolest thing I have ever seen in my life. I am amazed by how smoothly the servos allow the lips to move in a wave pattern. Its great how you controlled this with cables connecting the joints directly to servos.

Well done!

Been under the weather and made the Thanksgiving holidays… Well it kinda sucked .

Holy crap. :open_mouth:
I read through your other forum threads on other sites as well. Wow. Some very impressive work. I wish I had that kind of time and artistic skill. You are a very gifted man.

Again…wow.

This a movement test video

I have been working on the eyes brows and they have been a b*tch. Cables in a bind or the housing or Something .
I have taken the top of the skull on and off 20 times . But this is apart of it.
For the left and right brow I placed a spring return. The center brow mech were removed all together.
This has taking some time, Because of the room in the forehead … There is NONE.
I would get the left brow working and right brow wouldnt work. Right brow would work and the left brow stop working.
Well,I think its there now. programming the servos with the software is jerky Because the servos are running at full speed in setup,
The software slows down the servos.
These mechs got to be in working order before the skin is placed on.
