Skywind Dwemer Sphere

This is a Dwemer sphere animunculi I created for Skywind. It was designed with a style more akin to the original sphere from Morrowind. We will have two variants, this one being lighter armored and exclusive to ranged combat, hence it's single-armed design emphasizing the crossbow, as well as significantly leaner, featuring a thinner skeletal structure in areas like the wheels and body that has numerous plates on the other model. Due to technical reasons, this model required construction for Skyrim's Dwemer sphere rig and animations. This presented several challenges, as Skyrim's sphere can fold into a ball, so ours needed to do the same. Joints had to be perfectly aligned, and I carefully studied where the various body parts fit together when folding in order to assess how we could modify the model and design new body parts that fit together just as seamlessly as the original.
