Here is a second iteration of the alien terminator project. I still have some work to do on it but a lot of ideas are represented here. The look is a blend of insect and crustacean where the mouth is based on a lobster and the eyes are compound insect. One of the changes I tried to make was to come up with mechanical looks with most of the mechanics on the inside since bugs and crustaceans have exoskeletons. All their organs are on the inside with a hard skeleton on the outside so I am trying to have less physical evidence of the mechanics on the outside. I am going to represent the mechanics by bumps in the surface and will be removing the piston I made for the head. I think I will change the neck and maybe the mouth so I can place pistons inside the neck circle. I patterned the new antenna after the cell phone antenna on my car, which is over-wrapped in black plastic. So what do you think?
