All the arms are rigged and dynamic hoses and hydralics work a treat

More to come.... legs for a starter

CraigC 26-05-2004 10:34 AM

wow. I like the model. Lots of detail. They sort of remind me of those robots from the fifth element. Will they be textured?

Kevin 26-05-2004 10:44 AM

yep v.nice ..loads of detail, i like it mate, the hip area joining to the body especially well done

CraigC 26-05-2004 11:09 AM

Oh yes, they will be textured...... Actually, the Guardians from the 5TH Element were my starting block... so even happier now with your crits.

I have 7 different droids to be built, this is the 2nd one... here is the first... and he will get a revisit after the 7 are complete because he is the main character.... he is in need of a few gadgets and gizmo's... some bevelling here and there and a version where he is new and shiny... as oppossed to 200 years out of commission and a little rusty.

All 7 of droids are gonna be baddass MF's.... and I'll keep you updated as and when their baddassness progress's

how did u do the wire renders? if you wrote a shader, could you upload it, or if you wrote a plug in could u also upload it.

thanx. ciao

keep up the good work.

CraigC 26-05-2004 11:06 PM

I bought it from provide3d.com

Nice, isnt it?

CraigC 27-05-2004 05:55 PM

Another update for you… probably the last this week, as I have to go to work…. Next update Sunday Evening

Anyways…. I have tried several different approaches… but I am most happy with this one so far. It needs to be complimented with a few more hoses and maybe another sturdy hydraulic to the rear of the leg that will drive the calf area.

Anyway, although designated as a bad ass droid, this one has to still appear slighty dim and lovable… so I don’t wanna go to hard on the hardware… He’s very strong, and adequately armed…. But due to his amazingly slow CPU… he is a little slow on the uptake, and hence quite endearing. I’m hoping this is starting to come through now as he progresses

So here you go…. Been a bit of a slow ish week for me.
