After mentioning this, I decided to build it, cardboard-warriors.proboards.com/post/111136/threadStill available at www.smt.network/netherlands/nl/smt-bouwplaat/I printed it off at 2 pages per page ( 73 percent) to get it closer to scale No instructions, but once you build the main body parts, if you go alphabetically through the parts, his models usually build well. However, on these commissioned models, the idea is to get something that looks okay to a kid or someone fond of the topic. Lots of whiteness, so there is a lot of blackening on the back of the dark gray parts EDIT -- After looking over this again, I think building the bucket and bucket arms and attaching to the front unit is the best route to take. After that I will put the bumper assembly and engine cover and exhaust on the back. I am still undecided as to whether to attach the fenders before or after the wheels

That odd bumper piece to the right of the rear body in the photo above had me worried. Even in the cover shot, it is a bit wonky. So I reinforced the thin strip with another layer of card and let it dry under weight overnight. carved away the excess card this morning and it looks much more friendly

I like the look of both of those.
"Boston Dynamics SpotMini, which isn't all that mini, even at 73%"
I have to agree. It still looks a tad too big. It looks pretty cool though, I might have to build it.

It might look more proportional with a rail gun mounted on top
