Robot Wip

[pnoland]

Hey all, I’ve always been kind of off and on with Blender the past few years and havn’t really done a full render (worth posting) with it since I’ve been using other packages. This is my little robot I started a just some basic modeling practice but I decided to take it from Silo into Blender. I’m really begining to understand and enjoy how blender works and will probably be making it one of my main renderers (unless I need subpixel displacement…get that in here already! ;))

Some wip progress shots…

Right now i need to model the arms and figure out what I want to do for robotic hands before I start working on the materials and lighting for the final render shot. I’m going to try to learn to rig and pose using Blender also so that should be fun. Thanks for any comments!

Thanks! Yes, I wanted the “brain” to look like a jumbled mess of wires and cables so I found a good texture map and just applied it to a sphere’s color channel. I was going to displace it but it really didn’t turn out quite right, from a distance just a color map looks good enough for me.
