Automata

Automaton, reused wood, tinted with rust. Bird after a design by Robert Race. I have been out of Ipernity for some time while learning to make automata, which has been until now such a fun. I have very little knowledge about mechanics, so I have to learn that too. It keeps my mind and hands engaged. The only problem now is that I have to learn to make videos to film them and that is such a bore! That is why I haven't' uploaded here for a while.
