The bad idea
The dog is not inside the robot. The dog is the robot. Ears become antennae, coat markings become armor maps, and breed habits become field roles that make suspiciously good sense.

I turned dog breeds into tiny helmeted mecha guardians and accidentally gave them jobs, rules, and a shared military-industrial dog crest.

This started with a dog-shaped robot and immediately became Sirius Compact: a whole roster of canine machines whose bodies, jobs, and attitudes come from real breeds. Corgis are low command units. Dachshunds crawl into engineering problems. Bulldogs stand where the trouble is.

The family follows a locked set of rules: huge helmet shapes, dark expressive eyes, compact bodies, no weapons, no shields, no backpacks, and one crest system. I restored 77 clean high-resolution characters, then kept four here because they feel like different little machines instead of the same dog wearing new pants.
