My latest project.

Bubo, the mechanical owl from Clash of the Titans, the original (1981) version.
For some strange reason they showed it just for a couple of seconds in the 2010 version.

The designs : http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2043120

The software : https://github.com/MennoLauwerens/Bubo

It is painted.

Awesome work, makes me want to build a moving Jason and the Argonauts skeleton or something.

This is so good! I was just googling as I had the idea of modifying a moving Harry Potter Hedwig toy by ripping off his fur making him look like Bubo, but while I’m still leaning towards making the body and wings and head out of metal, I’m very tempted to at least snaffle your leg models and get my friend to 3D print them, and while I have no idea if I’ll be able to override the Hedwig sounds seeing the mp3s on your GitHub instead of having to extract them from the film myself is a HUGE help :slight_smile:
