is that a macross mech?

it also looks like the old transformers toy called jetfire (skyfire in the series)...

which i think was just a macross toy repackaged as a transformer anyway.

anyway... it looks good... as do all of the mechs in this thread.


curious... how long does it take you guys to do something like that? is it hard to do all of the little gears and pistons and stuff? what methods do you use to do that stuff? (subd's, nurbs, etc.)

[spooky3d]

Yes it is a veritech from the Robotech series.
To answer your other question:
Actually to me the pistons,gears and other nurnnies are the best part. It gives your model real character. And they are so easy to make. My best friend is the bevel tool.

[Kevin Grand]

I agree, and its also alot easier to model once you have sketched out your model, sketching is my fav part

[Venksta]

Hi! This is my first time posting anything here on CGTalk, but I've been lurking around here for awhile now. :)

Greyson, is there any chance you'll be willing to right a tut on that dreadnought? Its incredible (I play warhammer back in the day)

I'd love to see more torso movement tests!

[Tugmaster]

I'm not sure this counts. It doesn't have any guns or cannons and serves no real purpose but if it flew into you real fast those pinchers could put an eye out or someth'n.

Marvin is gret btw, I like robots like that.

Is this for 2D also? I drew some mechs a while ago I could post them... (I'm not really a good artist...:blush: never posted anything on cg talk before). If 2D is cool I can post them tonight .

heres another one of my robots i just recently finished

[Keyser-Soze-CG]

some really old work,
schoolproject we created a mp game were you had a mech that could change in to 3 different forms.
the animations were the hardest part to let them change into each other. with only 300 polys
http://www2.hku.nl/~niel/keysersoze/gamedesign-mechamorph.jpg

[EF]

here is my mech....check him out:

[Kevin Grand]

Looking good EF, I like the turbo boots :buttrock:

[Black Jesus]

DAREONER...


man... you're stuff is just brilliant.


how long does it take you to do models like that? and how long have you been modeling?

[Kevin Grand]

yea I would definatly like to see some of his new work becuase his old stuff is awesome.

[Kevin Grand]

Keep em coming! :buttrock: :buttrock: :buttrock:

[unicron]

Looking good everyone:thumbsup:

I can't wait to see more

I was curious though, How you rig these mechs that have multiple peices of "armor" or whatever? Do you put a skeleton in it? How do you make sure all the peices are moved by the proper joint?

Grayson, really like the textures on yours, looks authentic:eek:

wow that looks VERY accurate to the bandai model. could i see some renderings without the toon shader?

[Kevin Grand]

yea the toonshader does hide some detail. If its not to much trouble I'd also like to see it without the TShader :)

[kr3ml]

dont know if its a mesh but....

[Theta-Dot]

I never finished :(

http://thetadot.lazyarse.net/ThetaDot/3D/Ligerwlegs.jpg

concept isn't original, just made off of a toy my little brother had

[DogmaD]

Well, i dont have a webspace up and running yet. Working on it though.
'
This is one simple concept i did a while ago. The driver is sitting in the back part with the top of the body and the legs are in the bulk of the machine. So the mecha is about 4 meters in height.

I know the dynamics might not really work, but it's an early concept :)

I am also working on a new image that will be a lot more detailed and nicer model overall.

[schizo]

DareOner, your stuffs looks good! :applause:

love the mechs.. one day ill make robots all day everyday. woot!

haha until then.. ill make everything else. (and mabie a couple robots.)

Here's my mach : / its ugly when i see those mechs :blush:

[unicron]

looks good everyone!

Hey KiFe, interresting idea with the "doors" that look like they house the arms when not in use. I noticed you have some on both designs. What do they look like closed?

[KiFe]

Originally posted by unicron

Hey KiFe, interresting idea with the "doors" that look like they house the arms when not in use. I noticed you have some on both designs. What do they look like closed?

actually.. the first guy looks kinda phallic when his doors are shut... he looks very similar to a vaccum tube from old tyme radios... hence the reason i have few renders with his doors closed.

The latest one (in orange) had ALOT more thought put into it. The guns tuck up and the doors close. I'll post some pics of the latest with his doors shut when i get a moment.

I still as of yet havent found a way to texture this guy in a way that makes me happy.... any suggestions?

<--- texture block

[Porcupine]

Here's one I did awhile ago. Unfortunately I never got around to skinning it...

[Hollis J Wood]

Here is my Timberwolf, was unable to work on it for a while due to selling it but the freak decided modeling was too hard and I got it back.

http://www.frost-works.com/hollispics/Sarah.jpg

[Kevin Grand]

Looks awesome, when you say you sold it, what do you mean? you sold the concept art or the model?

[webfox]

Porcupine, your model looks neat, but the springs shouldn't go clockwise on one shin and counterclockwise on the other. They should go around the same direction on each.

[JZA]

LOL, yea, that thing looks like total crap because of the springs, bwhaha!!

;)

Porcupine, I also love the female character you placed on the ground plane for scale, very subtle detail.

[Porcupine]

Thanks for the tip, I never noticed that before. I'll have to fix that.

[jackburton]

Here's the toonshader-less Gundam. It's built from a 4inch toy I bought at WalMart. I've been making more realistic textures for what seems like years now, but there's so many small parts.
:shrug:
No textures on this one, just colors.

http://www.vi2.com/getFile/219819.jpg

http://www.vi2.com/getFile/219822.jpg

[webfox]

JZA, I never said his model looked like crap. I just said that the springs were noticeable. It's typical to mirror halves when modeling, but some things shouldn't be mirrored.

If I didn't say it here, then someone might notice it on his demo reel someday and think that he's not detail oriented and pass him over for a job.

I thought I was helping out. :shrug:

[Kevin Grand]

Its looking alot better without the shader jack

[JZA]

webfox, I was only pulling your leg, you wrote that you liked the model initially, didn't you? It just seemed rather ironic to point out such a small element on such an incredibly detailed model... Btw, again, it seems rather funny to think of an employer going 'mmm, that spring isn't mirrored, nah, he's crap, we don't want him'! :)

However, please enlighten ignorant souls like myself, why would an mirrored spring not function? I agree immediately that in case of this model, it is simply mirrored, and not correctly oriented afterwards, but I don't think it would actually keep the leg from functioning.

But enough about the damn spring already! :)

[webfox]

It's just a detail... but if you've ever repaired the suspension on a car, you'd see that all the springs are identical. The process of machining and building component parts are based on economics and simplicity of design. Screws wouldn't be threaded in reverse for the left side of objects anymore than springs would be built differently for one side or another.

When high-end companies look at someone's model designs, they look for things like this that say, either the modeler is just a wannabe art student with no mechanical design experience, or else they see someone with a real mechanical background who has artistic aspirations and can pull off their ideas.

And, besides, I've heard of people missing job opportunities on esoteric things like this before.

Does an exo skeleton count as a mech ? if it does heres mine, if not, move along to the next post, nothing to see here.

Nah. I can't texture for beans ;)
But you can be my guest if you'd like a go at it. This is actually a low poly version of Blue's mech (near the front of this topic). We both worked off of the same concept. He did the high poly and I did the low.

Well incase there are no more mechs to be posted, thanks everyone for participating, all of the mechs were very great and im sure they were a big inspiration to alot of people.

Its not to late to post more though :buttrock: :buttrock: :buttrock:

[KiFe]

well this thread inspired me to clean up my latest mech.. posted a few pages back.

I reworked the feet to make him a bit more stablefooted.. and dulled up his shell. (im thinking of putting some bolts on him.. texturing him like a jet or helicopter would be assembled)


http://www3.telus.net/avocado/random/TANKBLING1.jpg
Here's a BIG one (1600 across) (http://www3.telus.net/avocado/random/TANKBLING1%20big.jpg)

Altho i havent textured or am satisfied with it as a 'finished' piece per-se, im getting tired of working on him. I would also like to get an animation done with this guy at SOME point in my life.

Any Ideas for texturing or new shadings are welcome :)

Holy crap!!
I'm in mech heaven!
My ultimate goal as a (NEW) CG artist is to make a cool movie with a couple of giant mechs beating the crap out of each other in a giant urban city setting. You guys have given me some great inspiration!
Thanks!!
THUMBS UP TO ALL!

haha draco, I think we have all had that goal :D

[AJ]

Oooh! Robots robots robots!

These are a handful of robots I've started - and like nearly everything I've done in the last 2 years, not really finished... All old, and I think the first two are the only ones that could be referred to as "mech's".

I really like the modelling and lighting on your ED-209 blasphemy, but in the avi's, the walk cycle appears a bit weird - there doesn't seem to be enough weight there, it seems like he's planting his feet onto invisible cushions! With a few tweaks I think it could be truly awesome. Hope you don't mind my crits!

Hi again.

Great jobs around here!

I have rendered some details of ED-209 because they cannot been seen in the anis. I have removed the materials so the details can be seen clear. Hope you like it!

http://www.3dblasphemy.com/personal/ed2.jpg


hey Handiklap, I am affraid that mine has not a cap-shooter in the back man. I downloaded some ED models before making it. MAybe your model were one of them? I remember some based on the toy just like yours. I was thinking about making Robocop too man, I have the blueprints but I spent about one week with ED... it is a hard job to make mechs so well documented

HOLY HAIRY BUTt CHEEKS, is that transformable or different meshes?

[T0BER]

It transforms.

The last picture shows the armour system attached which can transform with it as well.

It was posted here about a year ago...

(no need to reply to it there though:) )

like the idea that the model can transform, but sincerely i don't like textures, everything looks kinda flat. :hmm:

It's a model of a ZOID toy I did back in 1999, and later used as a test model for GI renders. I really like the TOMY concepts about those robots, they were all very original.

And a couple of GI tests with Vray:

There is a mech comp happening over at cgchat.com for all you mech lovers;) Just thought I would mention it. Of course, it's game models, so, poly use will be quite restrictive.

http://162.42.208.159/~digitalb/images/mech100web.jpg

it is done with Cinema 4d 7

[instinct-vfx]

Hi everyone...thought i´d stick mine up too,

it isnt considered 100% finished, and never managed to finish a good environment for it. It´s a bot meant to assist in the exploration of archeological sites. Normal Wheel or Chain-based Bots tend to get stuck...this one wont hehe

It was a school project and hence done with time-limitations in mind.

Oh yeah, it´s called the "Arac-o-Matic" and is manufactured and engineered by the fictive company "Aracology Inc."

instinct-vfx, textures on your Arac-o-Matic are just great!! :beer:

And the model is neat too.

I would love to see it walking! :thumbsup:

[instinct-vfx]

Thanks a lot McFly!

Actually there is only ONE Texture in that Scene...and that´s a BumpMap for the Screws. The Rest is just pure Materials with 3d Max´s built in Floating Point Tiff support... just gotta luv it :buttrock:

actually it is completely rigged and there is several walking anims as well as a final spot for it...but i honestly dont dare to post those as the rig has some sever problems that is causeing minor feet sliding in certain circumstances...but mainly cause the environment consist only of a coloured floor and coloured obstacles....and looks damn bad hehehe

After I made the Dreadnaught tutorial about a year ago I got emails from users wanting to go a stage farther and build a complete mech rig, then rig it, animate it and render it. I made an 18 hour tutorial for Digit magazine over two CDs, however due to a policy change they only do one CD on the cover and even though this went for mastering it was canned at the last minute because of this policy.

Anyway, I am releasing this tutorial on my site as I promised soon. I know its not mega detailed, however I was not going to spend an hour explaining how to add greebling detail manually to a claw! If anyone knows a magazine that wants 18 hours of tutorial before it goes live let me know.
