Allover-101 was the first prototype of the Allover power suit design, featuring a lightweight rocket pod. It has a one-part torso designed to be printed lying on its back. The problem with this plan is that the bottom surfaces of parts end up with an odd texture, especially with irregular parts. The Allover-102 features a two-part torso split at the waist so that both parts can be printed upright, improving detail and finish but also increasing support material requirements. The Allovers were not ready for production by the time of Prometheus Rising Heavy Industry’s debut at FOE due to a problem with the ball joint parts I had intended to use. The design has since been revised to use a superior product that makes for a more robust figure and requires less complex cutouts on the figure. Once I receive my stock of parts, Allover production can commence. Allover-101 is on display at FOE Gallery’s Rise of the Robots Show.
