Automaton of a Boy with Gnats

I am working slowly through finishing automata as I have been completely sidetracked by the urge to draw. I also do need to get a camera to take moving images. In this automaton the gnats wobble wildly when he stamps his feet.

Great ideas and they are always immaculately finished. I'm making one too and it looks so naff next to this.Your ingenuity knows no bounds Caroline.

He is fabulous, I love the expressions you create on the faces.
While you're waiting for your camera, could you take a couple of photos of the automaton in different positions so we can his arms flap or his feet stamp? We're too impatient to see how they work!
