SWTOR | MD-CH1 Minipet Droid

MD-CH1, or "murderchicken one" This is another asset from our 10th anniversary SWTOR digital collector's edition I made. This was inspired by a set of macrobinoculars, using similar but slightly different sets of camera parts than the ones used in the original prop from A New Hope. I also use other vintage camera gear such as a vintage Graflex side grip and vintage lamp parts for the legs. The camera lens eye has several individually animated segments that rotate randomly, and the feet are inspired by Malgus' lightsaber blades.

This minipet droid took me one week from start to completion covering concept, model, material and texture, and animation of eyepiece components. It was a test to see what I could build for the game in one week's time.
