1st Bot

C&C welcome. This is my 1st trial-and-error project. :-? If you’d share what you’d consider to be common mistakes made at this level of learning, I would greatly appreciate it.

Cool deal. He has a lot of personality. Reminds me of the depressed robot from the Hitchhiker’s Guide (as I imagined him in the book, not the [rather crappy] movie).

Heh, thanks. I got my original inspiration from Fooly Cooly

Heh, nice bot. He really needs a face and a waist, though :wink:
btw, if you have a bot.jpg open, why did we get a screenshot?
Not much to comment on yet, but really coming along nicely

Really? For some reason I always a imagined him a better heavier and bulkier. Books are neat.

“would you like me to sit in a corner and rust? or just fall apart where Im standing?”

I agree with Fweeb- Very Marvin-ish! Good work, keep it up! :stuck_out_tongue:

Great robot, for someone which made his first one. Btw, what is his name?

I would suggest an animated texture (an avi clip) for his face. I suppose you have already thought of this though. %|

I have thought about the avi for the screen, but I’m very far away from attempting that. Still discovering the “joys” of simple modeling and rigging. I was trying to suggest a layed back attitude, and I take the bot’s resemblence to Marvin as a huge complement.
