    Or a small grove of young orange trees scattered around it...? The lore story broke my heart (in a good way), and I want to imagine a happy ending for the tree (and happy-ish for the walker having unknowingly fulfilled its duty). I do have to applaud the power of leaving it open for us to feel compelled to complete the rest of the story! 🙂

    35 seconds into the first video on your channel, aaaand: SUBSCRIBED! I'm throughoutly impressed by the quality of your videos, Eric. - The build itself is both creative and impressive. - The fact that it's story driven is just genius. And the way you introduce it, bit by bit, just works. - Your narrator style does everything justice, by being both informative and funny. I spurted out a loud laugh, when you mixed the basing material. All in all, your channel and its content is a true gem, and I felt like taking the time to comment on the video and let you know!

The design of this bot kinda makes me think of a Robot World Turtle or to the youngins, the pokemon Torterra Idk if it's possible or how it could be done. But I think water ripples where the walker's legs are would add a bit of motion. That it is walking through the swamp and disturbing the area. Less it is just sitting there forever.

    This is incredibly peaceful and really inspires, I also love how you explain what's happening while building and the somber but exciting backstory.

    Great video and wonderful story! I liked the techniques you used to get everything looking as good as it does. A lot of techniques I've seen are way above my skill level (like a 12 hour tree), but what you've shown here is in my comfort zone and I can't wait to try it myself! Thank you!

    You should check out vacuum tubing at an auto parts store. Really small sizes are available and its flexible and resistant to kinking. Well, really small by ordinary standards. Usually made out of EPDM which is a great rubber but doesn't like oil (no oil paints. Gates brand is the best for cars and for you imo, but it has a greasy coating. I think that with a line painted down the side and some fake branding and specifications would make for some amazing hydraulic hoses. During and after rain, check out the trash or ask an employee for some old wiper blades if that auto parts store changes them. Wiper blade adapters, most of which must be thrown out, look very... greeble-y. The adapters are the bits that are at the bottom of the packaging. During the earliest hot weather and during the hottest weather, check the trash for air conditioning refrigerant adapters and hoses. They're reusable but most just toss them after charging their car's AC. They have a lot of fiddly plastic and metal bits. I know it sounds super ghetto, but this stuff is usually right on top trash (this sounds so dumb as i'm writing this). Honestly, if you walked in and told the staff you're looking through the trash for adapters, they'd just assume you used to work there and was trying to save a a few dollars on a simple fix. In fact, they'd probably tell you where to look.

    These are awesome tips! I actually just purchased a bunch of silicone tubing, which I assume is similar to the rubber you mentioned. But great suggestion in checking with the local auto place for greeblies!

    Another thing. IRL, around where i live, (mid atlantic region of the US) abandoned equipment will have lichens growing over paint and moss growing over any rubber, like weather stripping and exposed hoses. There is an distinct difference between the two surfaces. This will occur even if there is no appreciable dirt or detritus covering it. I don't think i've ever seen this done quite right in mass media.

    @@gameyybuilds The electrical connectors and light bulb sockets are quite greebly too, but most are expensive. Some of the extremely common ones can be had for $5-8. Junkyards will have them for cheaper, but plastic that's old enough to vote is usually very brittle. One last thing; check out the plastic rivets and fasteners. There is an insane amount of diversity in plastic fasteners for the automotive industry. If you find something you like or might need again, write down the part number! The entire auto parts industry revolves around part numbers.
