Wow great concept, this will be a really freaky good image. That sketch pretty much lays it all out. Nice. Good luck.


#42

Very cool! :slight_smile:
I love the face on the centipede monster. :slight_smile:


#43

just working on the arm for the monster/giant…
he needs 100 arms…hahaha
s ill rig this up so i can pose and duplicate them…


#44

added a bit or a Victorian normal map…

i used some real Victorian patterns to make an alpha…


#45

Hey Cyberone!
You great a cool concept going on here and very nice metal shader!
This is going to be fun!
:thumbsup:


#46

hey there.

really great work so far i love the render with the many robot arms.
on this last one i think you should make the ornaments stick out sharper.
maybe try displacement (is it in bum channel atm?)
anyways keep up the nice work cant wait to see what your create out of your concepts.


#47

great textures, it looks really nice


#48

Great textures! What are you going to do with the hand?


#49

just a test to see how a few arms would look together…

next ill start making the body and head…
then put on the arms :slight_smile:

still goto to fix up the hands alot more


#50

I’d never heard of Hecatonchires before (but that is why it is a cool idea). I like your other ideas too… ned kelly would’ve been really interesting! but anyways best of luck hey
yay for oz


#51

I love that idea too (lots of great ideas on the contest and I’ve used that sentence too much) but I really love it. Keep up the great work mate :thumbsup:


#52

Wow!

Looking forward to you new updates!

Best,

Chris


#53

thanks for the comments peoples :slight_smile:

im working on some other stuff today so ill update later in the week …


#54

Hey Simon,

Great model !! Like a lot the texture and design for the arms armors, really great work!! Cheers mate !! :beer:


#55

That normal map embossing is really effective! I think you could bring it out even more if you dull the specular in the recesses and increase it on the raised up parts where they would rub on things. Looking really nice though, good work so far


#56

Ok that answers my question abuot the hands, very good. Nice work. Keep going!


#57

work has been insanely taking up all my time…
but i need to earn as much money as i can in the holidays…sad…
hope i can find some more time next week as for the past two i have
done nothing at all for the challenge…just come home and sleep…like im about to now…

hope i can get some more stuff up soon…


#58

Hey Simon,

Looks great! I’ve heard of Hecatonchires, my son came down with it about a month ago. We just gave him some penicillin.LOl Sorry, that’s my poor attempt at humor. Keep up the good work.
Brad
