Character: Big Worker Robot

[Daveaustin]

it is indeed very nice.. but as you've called it a "Big Worker Robot" i was expecting more dents and scratches..

it all seems to new an shiny,
Good job all the same :thumbsup:

[Odie]

What can I say? He doesn't like to get his hands dirty ;)

[Daveaustin]

nice.. :applause:

[cuse]

I like this robot. Nice and clean design. As a worker robot I expected this guy to look more stable.

[SyDemon]

The robot looks really cute! It looks like it can become a cute action figure!

[Numen]

Wow, nice realism achieved here. I think his head could be tinier, really, it would make him look bigger. He's really neat though, must've taken quite a while. I want one. Do they do homework too?

[Bliz]

You say he's a big worker robot but he don't look too big :p

I think you should do a new render but this time put the camera near the floor plane and point it upp at his face to give a better impression of scale.

Maybe you could pose him a bit more dynamically as he loks a bit like a toy that's been set down on the side.

The actual robot looks cool though. I'm only critisizing the camera setting because I think the object deserves a good camera setting.

[Odie]

Thanks for your comments guys. Bliz, I think you're right. One day I plan to give the bot a proper background and pose him. This render is more to show the completed model with texturing.

This is another render that I found. Scalene max render.

[Bliz]

Cool - That looks bigger! :thumbsup:

If you've got a car or vehicle mesh, a render of him holding a crumpled car would be cool.

[One of my fav. movies is The Iron Giant. Maybe you can tell?! ;) ]

[Odie]

heh, he's not supposed to be that big :p I pictured him beeing about 4 meters tall.

[Bliz]

Ok - Gotchya!! [LOL]

:D

[Odie]

though if he was big enough to hold a car in one hand he's sure be able to kick any other forum robot's ass! :D

[HieSpike]

very nice robot.
It's original and solid.

I agree that it would make a cool action figure!!!

good job.


peace,
Kane

[zandoria]

Neato!

[fleedawg]

Wow! This is excellent! Great detail. Hope it makes the front page! ;)

[Magius]

Awesome!! i love it!

[phantom_space]

dude this thing is really freakin kewl. what type of modling did you use? :applause:

[Odie]

Thanks everybody! I worked on this thing for like 3 months but I totally redid the legs about halfway through. phantom, it's mostly boxmodelling and a few boolean operations.

[Michael Chen]

Really nice texture. I think you got a chance of getting the CG award :beer:

You gonna animate him?

Anyway, overall I think he rocks, looks solid and tough :buttrock:

[D7X]

I could take him on, im only half his size :) i will have my RAVEbot to help me out with some funky dance moves :P
This should be on the frontpage i reckon

[Odie]

I really appreciate your comments.

Here's a collection of prelim. wip renders while I was still modeling the different parts of the bot.

Just in case you care to see it :D

[Hexodam]

great work :bounce:

how I see him is that its a space robot that works building space stations or something realy big

[Robbert]

cool renders! I like the red lights :buttrock:

[urgaffel]

My robot can kick your robots ass anytime. And soon I'll have two robots kicking your robots ass ;)

[Odie]

You sure about that, Urg?

http://www.sarnat.net/files/botvs.jpg

:cool: :D

[MCGrund]

Now with the changed perspective he looks like a Big Bad Worker Robot for sure. Verrry Nice!!!

[urgaffel]

lol

Just you wait... I've got a girl who can kick your ass in the works in the WIP section... And when she's ready I'm gonna let her open a can of whoopass on you

[Odie]

hahah bring it on little boy.... bring it on!

:D

Seriously, for those of you who don't know what he's talking about, check out this thread in the WIP section: http://www.cgtalk.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=36373 It's definitely worth taking a look at. You can find Urg's bot (the one who's getting his ass kicked by mine) on his site.

[Ed Lee]

It brings some nostalgia for me about your design. When life was much simpler...eh hmmm....OK..back to work.

haha, lol to Odie and urgaffel... :scream: :surprised :D

love these bots, one more thing to addd to my ever growing list, when i find the time...



cuse

[Odie]

You should make one, cuse. Robots are so cool and so much fun. I think that robots and 3d rendering were made for each other :D

[prasa]

your robot is excellent man! .. front page stuff i think

[MCGrund]

I like how your robot differs from all these Mecha type robots, which are so popular (not that I don't like 'em). Very neat.:beer:

[Odie]

Right now I'm working on a bot that's going to look more like a human. He's going to be in an animated short I'm making but probably won't finish for several years.
