Looks great. How did you achieve the motion? Some simulation software?
Scripted by hand? Extendable, like a robot with four legs or such? Really
curious! :-)

Thanks.. though i think great is far too much.. :)

That's just a plain scripting in pov, using clock and some sin/cos 
formulas..
Position/angle of both feet and main body are input datas, and legs are just 
calculad..
No error control : if the macro can't calculate position of a leg, pov stops 
with an error.

Didn't think of a four legs 'thing'... just a 2 legs and a wheel... (weird 
one..:))

I forgot to mention that this is a 2 years old 'project/work'...

Again, I think if you could also make it run and hop you'd have a fantastic 
mobile character. These things look great.

Excellent technical construction and wonderful characterization-- a cool
'bot.
