haha. Optimus Prime Roast - he's great! Hmm. That theme song is gonna rattle inside my head for a few days now I'm sure of it!

The Transformers,
More than meets the eye
Autobots wage their battle to destroy the evil forces of the deceptions
The Transformers
Robots in disguise
The Transformers
More than meets the eye
The Transformers.

[fal$eProfit]

Cool concept and great start. That reference image is funnier then hell

[RobertoOrtiz]

Ok started the modelling.

_R

[Ivars]

Great concept and imageplane! Really like the whole idea. Hard to comment on the modeling, since you've only just started. Looking forward to updates (was gonna insert a thumbsup smiley but all my regualr smilies are gone, and all I have now are the rather strange ones.....)

[SHEPEIRO]

nice en easy to rig when you get to that stage, you know the one that turned into the 70s tape deck, like the one i used to load up games onto my spectrum, that was a really geeky transformer.

[RobertoOrtiz]

Thanks for the comments so far guys. Keep them coming.
Ok here i am some updates.
I have not yet started work on the textures, or the props.

And I still want to detail the object more.

Right now it is clocking 2912 polys...


-R

[onelung]

comin together man! got some weird smoothing groups happenign on the character, so its a little visually distracting. But appreas ya got the form and everythign locked down, how will his arms move, i take it more like in sickets, and very little blending... should be fun. only geometrical crit so far is the verts on the love handle, maybe bringing them down and in a tad, so its not such a sharp curve, other than that, keep rockin... what are the acesoories for this dude? Rock on.
-schu

[RobertoOrtiz]

onelung thanks for the crit.
I will update the mesh tonight, taking into consideration your input.
I am planning to build the helmet (too small for him) and the gun.
It should be fun.

-R

[klau]

Progressing along nicely RobertoOrtiz.

Are you keeping the comb over?
Maybe have him holding the helmet.

cheers.

[RobertoOrtiz]

Klau I indeed did the combover and i built the helmet.

Ok here are some updates...

-R

[RobertoOrtiz]

And his helmet and his gun..



The helmet is 340 and the gun is 272 polys.


The main model is 2781 so I am putting him on a diet to lower the poly count.

-R

[ZephyrStar]

I've been watching your progress...and the only thing I think it's missing are a few pizza sauce stains! I mean, obviously this guy is going to get hungry walking around the anime and comic conventions, and as round as the fellow is, it's going to be pretty awkward to eat in that getup! ;)

Lookin good though, great concept art I might add ;)

-Chris

[RobertoOrtiz]

Ok finished rigging the model.

Now I am in the middle of texturing him.

-R

[Supervlieg]

Hey nice to see you in here Roberto. I really dig your concept. I hope you can bring across the cheesy cardboardness often found in those homemade suits.

Keep it up.

[RobertoOrtiz]

Ok here are some updates.
I rigged the model and I will pose it later.

-R

[RobertoOrtiz]

Ok here is the model.

Rigged and posed.
The butcher bill in polys was 3086 polys.

-R

[RobertoOrtiz]

Ok still tweaking.
