Here's a better look at Patch, another of our robot characters! These are some preliminary sketches that I did to figure out their general shapes, and from here I'll be able to iterate the design a bit and make it look a bit more convincingly tech-y. Patch was originally a spaceship repair bot, which is why they have multiple sets of arms and thrusters built into their feet. The top rear set of arms has magnetisable clamps for latching onto the side of a ship in flight, and all of their limbs are telescoping for maximum reach.
Patch was inspired by a bunch of different characters that fit a similar sort of vibe and/or look, namely Pidge from Voltron, Peridot from Steven Universe, Entrapta from She-Ra and Penny from RWBY, and if you're familiar with those folks you can probably guess that they're a bit of a gremlin who doesn't really get people and is more interested in tech. They're very fun, and I'm looking forward to developing their design further. - Mairi
