New model swimming

Back to the drawing board after delaying new design for quite a while. In the process, we discard (or put a side a few new design due to unsatisfactory result & movement. We enjoy each design process and failed models will continue staying in our heart. We will come back and fine tune these models again one day. This is the fascinating part of designing Automata models.

One of the models that we put aside some time ago is the swimmer. Swimming movement has always been an automata that we love to design. The coordination and rhythmic movement of hands & legs when swimming is just so fascinating.
We are glad to come back to this model and managed to fine tune and make the parts work. currently doing modification and hope to be release this new model soon. Happy swimming !
The picture show the swimming legs that we are trying to improve!
