A beetle shell, a boxy head, and jointed legs. Watch the video, follow along on paper, then bring your bug robot to life.
Watch it first
Draw it step by step
New lines are purple. Lines you already drew turn light.
Draw a wide, low dome with a flat bottom. This is the robot's beetle shell.
A square with round corners in front of the shell, sitting low. Join them with a short neck.
Two round camera eyes, a happy smile, and two antennae with a ball on each tip.
Each leg is two straight lines with a knee dot between them and a round foot. Lift the front one to wave. The other three legs hide on the far side.
One curved line from the top of the shell down to the back, with three bolts along it.
A line of ground under its feet, and a bright light on the front of the shell. Now this bug robot is yours.
Now draw a bug robot that can climb up walls.
Practice on paper
Faint lines to trace, all six mini steps, and an empty box to draw your own. One page, works in black and white.
The magic part
Finished drawing? In a Kubrio project, your kid turns this paper bug robot into a real animated film — with Kubrio's AI thinking partners at their side. The little wave below is a wink; the real clips go much further.
The Animation Studio
Your kid draws a character on paper, tells the story, and watches it star in a real animated film.
