Basilisk Paper Automata at GRSF!


Here is a paper automata version of my Basilisk from the Beasts2 book I made it for the 100 Beasts show this Saturday at Giant Robot in San Fransisco.
So if your in the Bay Area stop by and check it out should be a really amazing show.

Buy it? Wouldn't we all! By the By, Matt, what is the model made of? It sounds and looks like light weight wood. Is so?

Thanks guys. I will make this one available in the shop for sure. I need to make it a little more user friendly and write directions and diagrams and all that jazz. It took me 7 hours to hand cut and glue. I would really like to make this available as a diecut project (like flying pig).
Deal: It's 100% paper. It is a pretty heavy cardstock printed on a laser printer. The sound comes from the tail mechanism hitting a small gear that makes it bounce.
