DEPLOY! My 4th version of the iron duck head.

I spend 2½ day straight working on this... as in, I did basically nothing else at that time beside sleep, eat, and go to the bathroom. The forced breaks were tough..

IRON6DUCK's guide to mechanical stuff:
Making mechanical stuff is a challenge in the way that you try to balance your design between strength vs complexity.

Strength: You want a solid looking object that feels tough, durable and strong. You achieve this by making big shapes so it looks like the object carries a lot of inertia. Too much strength and your design will appear blocky, primitive, simple and chunky. Just look at devastator: www.youtube.com/watch?v=dFtU7S…

Complexity: You want your mechanics to to appear advanced, clever and techy. This is done by simply increasing detail level. more of the smaller shapes. Too much complexity will make your design look open, fragile, messy and unfinished. Just look at devastator: www.youtube.com/watch?v=n2FVer…
