„Almost half a year has passed since the last entry, too many things to do...
The "Pandora's Box" was successfully opened and has gained considerable popularity. Surprisingly, almost no one complained or was disgusted by the appearance of the animatronics. Almost. Most of the questions were about the "Cyclops Brothers" – Leshy and Bukavats.
Their appearance seems strange and crazy to everyone, and I can't blame them for that, one-eyed creatures with claws instead of mouths and hooves, who are they? Bugs? Monsters? Mutants? ALIENS?! But whatever they are, I like them because their designs are quite original, and that's much better than another animatronic-human or animal.
Artem came up with them when he was just ten years old, and he no longer remembers how he invented them, but he liked them. We already made prototypes; they looked worse than the new ones and now serve only as parts for repairs. Artem still decided to give them names, referring to Slavic mythology, although they don't quite fit, especially Bukavats.
But with Leshy, it's not so bad, and the name suits him. I also found Artem's notes about Leshy's lore: «Leshy got tired of being the master of the forest and passed his status to a random creature. He is a cheerful fellow and quite polite to everyone, wishing to be friends with all.» Simple, but not bad.
The Cyclops brothers are very tall and have very long limbs, their "combat" features are sharp claws and speed, so we keep them away from visitors. In terms of performance, they are good; they play different instruments depending on the show. The brothers appearances differ only in color, clothing, and headwear. For example, Leshy has a small tree "growing" on his head, but in the future, I want to replace it with something better because it doesn't really look like a tree...
Alright, that's all for today, I still have work to do. I hope I won't wait another half a year to make the next tape.
End tape.“
