Aaron’s shown off the ‘Fun, Fun, Fun’ track from the Volo tape in both simulated and real form to show off the differences. You can also hear what sounds to be Shooter’s voice for Fatz at the very end with ‘I Get Around’, which is definitely a big departure as was anticipated.
Also interesting that Aaron notes his Billy Bob has had its head turn cylinders removed for a few years to just let the head swing with the body! I actually kind of like it but having the movements axed from any use is yea not that great. I do wonder if there’d be any way to have the air leak out slowly so the cylinder was more free to move but still able to be acted on.
Its really fascinating seeing how much the weight of the parts affects other pieces of the frame to get the body shaking in that fashion. Even when I was attempting much more complex airflow simulations for Pneumagination even that would have never counted for this exact motion. If simulators are ever gonna get closer to the real thing it will need studying to hand-create these ‘free’ movements for each interaction between movements on a character.
