NAUTILUS STEAMPUNK SNAIL MODEL | ART MACHINE FROM THE OCEAN FLOOR

UNIQUE MECHANICAL AESTHETICS

The second creation in the Poseidon Project, the Nautilus Snail inherits the pioneering spirit of its Mobula brother. The design features a bold steampunk metal finish, combined with soft curves that mimic the characteristic biological shape of the Nautilus.

The product comes in two versions: hand-assembled and ready-made, giving players a complete experience from the assembly process to the moment of admiring a vivid mechanical masterpiece.

HIGH-QUALITY MATERIALS & EXQUISITE WORKMANSHIP

The Nautilus is crafted from over 90% solid metals such as aluminum alloy, zinc, brass, iron and magnets. Every detail is meticulously handcrafted, achieving high perfection and outstanding aesthetics. With dimensions of 345×235×148 mm and a weight of 2.65 kg, the product is not only sturdy but also brings a sense of luxury and collectible value.

BIOMETRIC DYNAMIC DESIGN

Using a motor and a precision gear system, the Nautilus Snail vividly recreates the rhythmic movements of marine life. The tentacles and flippers move in unison, creating the sensation of breathing, of swimming. Each soft sway of the tentacles is more than just mechanics – it is the art of imitating life.

FRIENDLY OPERATION - EXPERIENCE YOUR OWN CUSTOMIZATION

The Nautilus is designed so that anyone can master the experience. From the light switch, the brightness adjustment knob, the motor switch to the speed control knob – all are intuitive and easy to operate. In particular, when the light drops below 70%, the system will automatically switch to the “breathing light” effect, creating a magical space as if the creatures are really living in the ocean.

ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTION

Assembling the Nautilus is simple and fun, taking only 1-2 hours. The magnetic design allows you to easily attach the shell and frame without tools. Most of the components such as the motor and movement system are already pre-assembled. You just need to attach the shell, tentacles and install the battery to complete.

WHAT'S YOU GET?

Nautilus Main Body – The focal point of the entire design, combining steampunk and biomechanics.

  • Removable alloy shell – Allows for shape-shifting, giving two distinct looks.
  • Charging dock – Provides power for the motion system and lighting effects.
  • User manual – Detailed instructions for assembly, maintenance and operation of the product.
  • Special assembly tool kit – Custom designed to ensure you can complete the model yourself with precision and ease.
