How to Build a Creepy Robot Doll

So Ryan Robinson over at Slacklog saw a few video clips of the KHR-1 humanoid robot, wanted one, it was too expensive, so he decided to build his own and document the process.
And what better foundation to build from than a craft-store doll?
It was very no frills, just a vinyl doll, for 3.99 it was worth sacrificing. It was a larger scale than a barbie and had a cute enough face. Weird thing is the face is very young looking but the proportions are downright womanly. I had to explain myself to the checkout girl as to what a 30 year old guy was doing buying a nekd childrens doll. I told her it was to build a robot and i could tell she just thought i was a weirdo. Thats fine.
Hmmm. K. You can read the rest of Ryan’s tutorial at the link below…
