DIY Animatronic Witch Scene 2016

Our DIY Animatronic witches scene with the start of the upgrade. We will be continuing with this 2 year project with new components and reprogramming.

Woohoo. That is the most incredible animatronic scene I've ever seen. The oled eyes are crazy Awesome. The 3/4 axis skulls are super slick. That should be in a theme park. Love it.

[@halstaff]

Thank you! It certainly is a labor of love. Or obsession as my wife would say!

[@he1mut]

Checking out all the DWD entries: Just top-notch stuff from "HAW"! The long-run on ALL that programming - holy cow!

[@username2639]

This is a very good animatronic scene, of course the lines aren't perfect. However, I'm bewildered as to how the skeleton can move even though the bones are so skinny. Very good job

[@HauntHunter]

These are literally the best props I've ever seen.
You did such an awesome job!!!!
Better than any prop Spirit Halloween could make lol

[@halstaff]

Thank you for the high praise! This is still a work in progress so watch for the updates.

[@HauntHunter]

The eyes are such a great effect. :)

[@halstaff]

They are a pain to solder up but the effect is worth it!

[@diydebs]

Love it. x

[@halstaff]

Thank you.

[@norcalhaunt8761]

man..that's another level there...sweet

[@halstaff]

Great! The goal is to continually take it up another notch.

[@rock-afire-fan]

you should at least mold some body and arm shells so the clothes arent wrapped around the bare mech

[@halstaff]

You're absolutely right! I now make foam bodies shells for my characters which provide a much more realistic look. You can check out my process at ruclips.net/video/SrR1qgkSrIg/видео.html

This is AWESOME!!!

[@halstaff]

Thank you! I am very pleased with how the project is progressing.

[@gemmymasterinflatables7477]

It’s awesome but the witch needs some toe of frog and eye of newt

[@halstaff]

Thank you. I'll keep that in mind for when we redo the performance!

[@chrisgustafson6495]

Awesome work! Who did the audio for this?

[@rockymaldonado7758]
