JSprogg - March/April
 

ok I am going to try and find the time to fit this in.

no concept sketch ti's completely in my head but it is going to be based on a Wasp !

oh and it will be a vehicle of some discription although it might end up too heavy to fly..lol

ok I have started blocking out the wasp body, obviously this is going to change a lot but here a quick preview render.

update...

just finishing the basic shaping before getting onto the good stuff :)

Very nice! Dont forget though that (a real) wasp has their mouthparts on the sides rather than on top of each other.

Same style as on ants etc.

Check it out :)

Thanks for the tip, I do have references for the wasp, however this is not going to be the scale of a wasp and will end up an all terrain vehicle so is only really wasp like ;)

started work on the legs...

just the ambient occlusion render without the vector wireframe overlayed..

is this the foot end of the leg (lower leg) or the join to the body (upper leg).

eva way looks well nice :beer:

this is the joint end that joins the body.
just a start though , more to come :)

ok I have almost finished the first part of the arm ...

update on the leg

coming along very nicely

thanks tweety ..another update

very nice work jsprogg :)

you should think about having some big steam chimneys coming out of the abdomen or something ;)

Si

This is coming along very good!
I was watching ant bully and was contemplating making a steampunk ant and scratch my original idea.
