"Little Flea," from concept to model | Beyond the Blight kitbash & story diorama

Video Description

This concept to scratch build (with some 3D printing sprinkled in for good measure) was a TON of fun, as was working it into the lore of the rest of my world. I used an LED light bulb, a tank kit model, a transformers toy, and a bunch of other household junk for most of it, while also doing some of the finer greeblies in Blender, and then printing. I hope you enjoy watching!
