the concept was based on the destroyed ED-209, I did have some illusions that I could a half damaged head in the time frame, but of course not. but I think its worked out well. I used a lot of boxes and cylinders to make it look detailed, the smoke is just cones with noise modifiers, and a noise maps. I wanted to tweak the map a bit more but ran out of time.

This was my own design bomb disposal Robot, i was going for detail more than a complicated shape that is why i have a wild poly count, it is about one of the only time i dont have to worry about polys.

the track was made starting with a box then shaping it in to a track piece, then copied it 90 times attached them, created a line for the track to follow then used the PathDeform tool to create the track.
the rest of the model was made from simple objects ciliders spheres and box, i always only start with one segment and cut the object as and when i need detail. the pipe on the robot were done using lines and setting the to show in the render!

Hi all. This is the first time I have ever entered one of these comps but it looked like fun so thought I would give it a go.
Inspiration came from Johnny 5 (short circuit) and was made mostly with extruded cylinders and boxes with a few lofted shapes for the pipes. (used Max btw)
Loads more I would like to do but just not enough time.
Anyway I hope you like it. I do plan to finish with textures etc, so would welcome any comments or crits.

Cheers G

I'm pretty rusty so i decided to do something easy. Not much other than spheres and cylinders here, started to lowpoly so I smoothed it.

wow, that's really nice work, the detail is amazing, especially the treads. it's stuff like that that really makes me want to model more so I can get that good eventually =]

Hey guys! I had some time tonight and I thought I'd model another robot for the challenge! Hope you like it! =]

Workflow:

Torso - Sphere that had the top separated (to use for head). The top section was sunk down in (bevel tool)
Head - I used the top of the torso's sphere geometry that I separated, duplicated and rotated it. The eyes are modified cylinders. The neck is a line that I turned into an EditPoly to modify.
Arms/Hands - The forearm started as a cylinder. The fingers are modified (FFD 2x2x2) capsules. The upper arm is a cylinder and the socket connector is a sphere. The arm support that runs the length of his back is an arc that I turned into an EditPoly to modify.
Legs/Feet - THe socket is a sphere. The upper leg is a cylinder. The shin section was a continuation of the forearm section, it was modified by manipulating vertices.

I used 3DS Max to model with.

No one did a Gundam ? :P

May have to do one for obligatory reasons before the night ends...

And here is the wolverine Gundam.

That's it for this week. Poll to follow shortly.

Hi all!
I've thought that challenge ends after 8th June (i.e. including 8th June, not excluding), so I've leaved it until sunday=) But nevermind, there is my try:

Working process:
Box, Cylinders, Spheres, Edit Poly, Symmetry. Extrude, Connect, Chamfer, Cut, Bridge.

Craig Lewis · 06-08-2008, 09:23 AM

Ah sorry about that. I should probably have a definite ending time. I usually just close the thread after I've got on the computer on sunday. I reckon from now on I'll do it until 15:00 GMT, though I'll have to work that out for other timezones.

Really nice concept for your model, I like your final render aswell, did you do that in max?
