I've started another model I intend to use in UT2003. I have most of the modelling complete. I may rework the body somewhat but my polygon count is getting rather high so it wont change all that much.

Here is what I have so far. I have the skeleton built and the pistons have bones that are aim constrained to each other so they work (not shown on this render).

Thats a really nice biped robot. Cant wait to see it textured. Just curious, what kind of shader ( if it is a shader ) did you use for that color render?

I'd really like to know how you render a scene like that?

what light did you use and what material?
