Holden and I are dickin around in a udk project involving some killer warbots, killing each other on a spacestation. I am workin on a design for the bots, i want them to seem adorable and harmless, untill their laser eyes fry you. this is just blockin in some design ideas, the bot will eventualy fold up into a box when inactive.

originaly i was doing a wall-e / johnny 5 tank tread bot but when digin up some research i came across the big dog robot, and thought those legs were neat.


we could use some udk skilled char guy to help us out if anyones interested
oops

Cute, man! I love adorable robots. What kind of art design are you going for, is this guy supposed to be skinned up all realistic, or something more cartoony?

First thought when i saw the name was of that DM-crates level that I believe cholden made back in the day(?). Then I saw the design and thought it would be hilarious if you guys took that level idea, make it entirely out of crates, but then some of them transform into these things. the two flat pieces on its head could be 2 sides of it, then you just add 2 of those to the back of him that loko like fins or a cape or wings or something. Just a thought.

Like the design though. Im excited to see this evolve.

the texturing will be more realistic, but the designs a bit stylized, not necesarialy cartoony.
