Strandbeest walking machine (Fable 5.1 vs Fable 5)

Claude Fable 5.1 and Fable 5 each got one attempt at a Theo Jansen-style walking machine driven by a real crank and linkage. Per the author, Fable 5.1 built a sixteen-legged walker with sails, and Fable 5 a twelve-legged walker on a beach at sunset.

Prompt

Quoted verbatimSelf-contained
Build a walking machine in the spirit of Theo Jansen's Strandbeest. Its legs must move through a real linkage mechanism driven by a rotating crank, so the walking motion is produced by the mechanism itself and not by hand-animated leg positions. It must visibly walk across the scene on its own. The number of legs, the environment, and the presentation are your call. Everything about the design is your decision: style, colors, mood, environment, camera, level of detail, and any extra touches. Do not ask me any questions, make every choice yourself and build the most impressive version you can in a single attempt. Technical requirements: one single self-contained HTML file, no external models, images, sounds, or asset URLs of any kind (a JavaScript library from a CDN is fine). It must start running on its own the moment it loads, with no clicks needed, and run smoothly with no console errors.
