Building off a character I have in RIT's weekly Reporter comics,
I made a kinetic puppet in an animation class I took with Tom Gasek.

Animation Test

Scribble Face vs. the Egg

Lizard King: fully functional socket joints, snappable yapper, right hand rotates and waves hello.
eye spy: double ratchet, socket ratchet, angle clippings, needle nose pliers, candlestick holder, sledgehammer pick, nut cracker picks, lug nut wrench, wires

fly old man comes equipped with removable cane, so get loose with foot-tapping dance moves that'll shake his monocle chain.
He's got one hand on the tiller and a twistable mustache greased to go...this motherfucker is ready to grab the world by the overalls, and hoist em up before its too late.
Eye Spy: piece of pliers, pipe scraps, assorted bolts, drywall screw anchors, drive shaft gears, singer sewing machine wheel, metal and ceramic hooks, other weldable refuse.

Robot Bitty with a gangster-lean?
she comes equipped with flailable arms; movement of her left arm twists a left titty, when its not hooked on her waist.
eye spy a grinder wheel guard, a scythe blade, bicycle kickstand, a pully, doorknob, small mechanical grinder, a small hook, and scrap debris

This guy comes fully equipped with a thrustable torso and interchangable heads. He seems like some sort of ass-kicker to me. My first welded sculpture.

The beaches of Maruata, Mexico were littered with creative opportunities:
surf serenades to some sort of spaceman spiff-esque beach invasion from found construction wire fragments
