IG-515 polycounter lvl 5
Hello, been working on this mech for a couple of weeks and wanted some feedback. Its not meant to be a game model, but more just to show modeling and design skills. Any feedback is appreciated. I use 3dsmax for the modeling.

    The design looks awesome. However, the image is way too small and there's also the compression problem.... To really show the details, you gotta upload a much bigger image (and with better compression). Wireframe shots would be nice too. Anyway, i liked the design.

    If you don't plan to add damage to it, perhaps a bit of color, perhaps desert camo?

    Looks nice otherwise for being made in 3dsmax.

    Looks great!

    But I barrely could see - how it moves.
    Also - some parts intersections looks "boring and cheat" - its just bring together like on glue - without holes or bolts ot some other thing that keeps it together.

    And - looks like main black parts - are plastic. Because for metall it look too monolith and heavy, because there are no stiffeners

    Thank you for the critique D4V1DC. I tried some camo but it was taking away from the spec and topology. Looked too busy. I will experiment with it some more.

    And I will have to shoot myself for learning, teaching, and earning money for years on an inferior program such as 3dsmax. I obviously made a mistake.

    thank you skyground. I will tighten it up with some extra fasteners and bolts. And i will do away with any plastic looking shaders

    Amazing. Gotta love industrial-futuristic concepts. I see you've been inspired by names like Aaron Beck and Vitaly Bulgarov. The only suggestion I can make is to add finer and even smaller details. And maybe render the model in a more atmospheric environment with some postprocessing.

    Looks great overall, keep it up !

    Thanks dude! I'm adding more details as I type. Aaron and Vitaly are beasts and very inspiring. I appreciate the feedback.

    How did you do the environment?  Looks like an hdr background that became a real floor...

    This looks really nice. I think the cannon stands out as a little square/blocky in a way the rest of the mech isn't, especially in its silhouette
