The project consists of the following parts:
Movement mechanics
Puppet or movement model.
If you want to have an overview of the project should start with: “The Project how it works”
Also some Youtube videos exist that show how to build and operate the animatronics:
Bob Johnson from Canada made an excellent blog regarding the build of the project: If you consider to realize some animatronics, it is worth to read it: https://zappedmyself.com/animatronics/bechele2-info/
Many thanks to Bob for this great piece of work.
Those who want to see the puppet first in action I recommend to watch the following videos:
