Latest Update: Modeling: Robot design

Still trying to fing the design. Will be quite a small robot, sitting on the back of the baboon. Same way as how a baby baboon would ride it’s mother. So who is the servant and who is the master? Equality? Robot is the master and man is the servant? Monkey the master…? Not quite sure yet.

I’ve decided to go with the Baboon as the monkey. They travel in packs and can be quite aggressive. The idea behind this peice is robots and monkeys join forces to take out the human existence. Whether it be in an alternate dimension or in the distant future, man always seems to go further and further from the truth. We are always trying to better ourselves from the outside, we don’t focus on the soul. Sooner or later technology will inevitably take over our lives and become the greater power. Man has always denied that we evolved from apes when it is so blatently obvious! Man has tried to prove to the world and his ego that they were created by some greater being/ power. Anyway, the monkeys are pissed off and they become allies with the robots to eradicate mankind from ruining mother nature for good.


#3

Will incoporate this energy somehow?


#4

Modelling the head. This is a bit of a late entry so I’m posting all the stuff I’ve done so far.


#5

More of the baboon. Going for animation topology. Any critiques would be really appreciated.


#6

Planning to do some displacement in Zbrush, texturing also. The rest will be fur. Will be challenging having never used hair before.


#7

Nice golden fro. Just having some fun testing with Ornatrix. Great plugin!


#8

Another hair trial. It looks way too clean and more like a lion is suppose. Any expert Ornatrix users?

Hi tehre Carl :thumbsup:

I have only one crit that is regarding the robot’s proportions. I already said this to you once, but I have to say it agai… The arms and the hand are agains every single rule of proportional and balaced body! Make them longer and thicker… even if it is a baby robot, it still has to have some balance…

I’ll be watching this one as well :thumbsup:

Hey Carl!

Welcome to the challenge. Dude, I’ve said this to you once, and I’ll say it again, love that baboon of yours!

The robot is coming along very nicely. Agree with loocas regarding the arms, a tiny bit out of proportion. I assume there will also be some sort of support for the forearms. At the moment only cables.

Hey, just asking! :stuck_out_tongue:

that baboon looks really good! the hair is really well done. im also trying ornatrix for my m+s, but it keeps on crashing.

Thanks for your comments. Yes true, the robot is looking a little weak and out of proportion. I’m still trying to find the design. Working on a few too many projects at once and haven’t gotten around to it yet.

For ornatrix problems all I can tell you is try a little bit of testing with not as many hairs and don’t use to many lights. There is an option to exclude lights from the hair in the Render Elemants window. Hope this helps.

Thanks again
