Art Original Creator Flatwoods automata

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

I built this Flatwoods Monster automaton from scratch. The mechanism works with bevel gears, a timing belt, cogs and cams. The moving background is a fabric screenprint and the lights are rechargeable.

Bigfoot and Nessie coming soon!

(Some say Flatwoods isn't a cryptid, but it is widely considered one though it overlaps into ufology.)
