WIP: Robot
« on: October 30, 2008, 06:45:05 pm »

Hi, long time ago i posted a wip (very long time). I was pretty busy with college so I didn't started a new project till a week ago.
As you might see it's a robot. That's all i have to say about it right now but i have some nice ideas.
The model is roughly based on other models i found on the web, which i used as a reference.
It's will be a still but maybe i will animate it, depends how it all works out. Enjoy

Nice, i want to see him realising he's a robot, and admiring his new limbs... seems like a curious character, with some humanity...

I'm probably not going to rigging him, so admiring his new limbs will be a though one. But this was indeed ment to become a very curious robot. A property that might cost him his live ^^

Eheheh Floyd, your creature did not came to life yet and you're already planning its end, what a mercyless creator ;)

Keep on the nice work, it's promising.

Here a small update on my robot. I added the legs and feet. It still needs hands and some details, but i will do that soon enough.

It looks really good kinda like something out of Pixar's Robots.

I was wondering though, how did you get the gray texture to come out like that when you where rendering, it dosen't look flat. Was that a texture you made or one made in anim8or texture tool?

You created a really cool robot. It would be funny to see him moving around  :D

As a reference i looked alot to pixar's Robots and other robots. So yes there is some alikeness ;)

The material is just the default material with the specular turned down to 0. But it was render using the AmbientOccluder attribute. This gives it a bit the clay render look.

Thanks! Indeed it would be funny to make an animation short staring this robot and i have some cool ideas. The problem is that i don't have alot of time, so a minutes lenght short would take ages. The first step is making a still, maybe i will move on to animation after that.

He looks quite nice and is probably related to the ones in the advert on TV right now for sweets from a well-known brand.

Not sure which ad your talking about. Remember I'm from holland, we might have some other ads/brands.
But i have inspired my robot on alot of other (3d) robots, so you might see some comparison.
