Here's new one I started the night before last.... My anime buzz continues with some mech action.

(done in C4D)

i think the shiney shoulders are abit much (the silver/metalic pieces), they don't really blend well with the rest of the model

overall its great, you just need too "shiney down" the shoulders a little

[bongoboy]

Fair point, I was thinking that myself... I need to widen the parts behind the head as well. The fins are too close together

[Mooey]

Excellent model asusal mate.

The one thing that sticks out to me is the two cones on the shoulders, just under the shiney bits. They dont seem part of the model, if you know what i mean? They dont connect in anyway, just seem to be put there. I think cause they overlap the orange colour.

coolio... i agree that the shoulders are a bit shiny tho..
it would probably beat my cyborg in a fight

and agree with mooey on the cone things.. maybe if they had connectors sticking out... or wires maybe

[bongoboy]

This looks much better....

How did you get the 2 side things (shoulder like things ) done?

[bongoboy]

Create a sphere and turn it on it's side. Make it editable then delete the ends and the bottom half. to give you the basic shape then use scale to squash and stretch it into shape (constrained on axis).

All you have to do is copy and rotate and resize to make the top bulge. This way you keep the same angles in the curves...

[Ckristian]

Cool. Thanks.

Wonderful model btw.

Just saw some pics on google. Would be awesome once its finished.

[SHIVMOO]

looks much better with the non shiny shoulders and the cones being connected
hope you finish it...

[bongoboy]

Here's a little update.. sorted out a few shape problems and cleaned up the shoulder at the body so it's not just a straight joint

[bongoboy]

Not really mate. I've been snowed under with work and we've been trying to get the website back on line this week...

I did a little bit of detailing but nothing significant...

This is awesome! maybe when you get to texturing, some glass work where those domes were, and maybe on the little "head....but this is reallllly cool!

[Zeerus]

I hope you'll allow use to use this as a render. really great work and detail in it. good job and I look forward to the finished piece. Do you plan on adding the rest of the body too?

[SHIVMOO]

bongo.. did the same thing happen to you as happened to me and my cyborg thing... you get so far, then just want the thing to be finished so you can play?? ....

i am going to push you... so that maybe i will finish it afer the xbox is done.. that wont take long
