So one of my favorite movies is Wall-E , and I always wanted to make Wall-E , but I always saw other people make him and it always looked ok or it was good but its all the same, It never sparked me enough cause for me it was too simple and thats not me being cocky, I love a challenge and I hate wasting time on anything that will bore me. Until a couple days ago , I found a blown up schematic of Wall-E in pieces. This sparked my curiosity and drive to make a more practical / mechanical Wall-E, so that’s what I am going to do ,with the use of schematics and screenshots.
I have hit a point with my jeep I am making where it’s a little boring / tedious , I need something to break from it, and I think this will be perfect. I think this one will be more of a “see into the mind” and view the process I go through about tackling this Project

Nice man. Look forward to see how this turns out. I mean the jeep is detailed as heck so this should be good to see!
After collecting all kinds of reference, went into studying all of it , sorted all of it and determined where I will start. I think most would start with the body, but I know what the body is , its basically a cube, and I know that Wall-E’s head from the movie can fit into that cube. So I am starting with the head because that’s the thing I don’t know, and then I can figure out the size of the cube cause it would only be a little bigger then the head and then in theory , it should all be close to the right proportions. With that all said , this is where the start will be.
I started making the plate with some holes and the can shells. I have to do some research in how the back of these are made, but if I can’t get that figure out right away, will probably work on the eyes its not a complicated lens setup like a camera , but should be a little like a camera , so will see what I can make that will fit within the given space. still gotta make the camera type module still, I will come up with something that will work.
